Why should I care? Chicanos are seen as maggots in time. The only hopes of a people that will correct the ills of this forsaken place are ill images of contemporary area trends. We are not gangsters, or drug pursers; we do not have ties with cartels or illegal forces. We are a simple voice that many in our area either are not aware of or simply live in darkness due to the madness of local petty social politics. So many sell out because they want to become part of the dynamic social presence and forgo what is important. The valley and Brownsville in particular have never had a chance to move forward due to the horrific influx of culture stealing identity. Why do so many cancel whom they are and adorn those who simply just use them. Chicano art might not be the mainstream fade or the idealistic local trend but it is the only salvation that the area has from the totally messed-up corruption of what the area can offer. 99.9 percent reflects the population. So why does .001 control? Just to get a minute of glory?...when mortality is on the horizon, and you know who you are basura. Chicano Art, viva la cuaza shivo!

You have a great future as a chicano slam poet. There are several venues locally were you could perform this nonsense rant and you would be applauded for it.

... But we are still lacking any political, economic and social power. Just divided and under control !!!

Gonzalez: "nonsense rant", no I think the mission was accomplished if a border wall artist is forced to say this. You must be in a cozy bed. Pesnally I like the tone and power of this rant, like most good art, Chicano art tells the truth and paints the purity or flection of society. The truth hurts stop being a drama queen, oh you can't...JS
