Open Letter to all Mexicans:


White American each day tries to shame you regarding the number of Mexicans that are “illegal aliens” in the United States. They pretend to be doing Mexicans a favor by allowing a few of you to cross the border into the United States. You are presently under attack and on the defensive and in a powerless position regarding this debate. You can take the offensive and come from a position of power and not only end this debate and win it, but do far more. You have the ability to open the border and eventually take back the land white people call the United States. Not through violence. But by loudly stating who you are— Indigenous people of the North American continent—American Indians.

Europeans have convinced you to call yourselves Hispanic, Latino, Chicano, Mexican. They want you to call yourself anything except what you truly are—American Indians indigenous people to America. And the sad thing is that many Mexicans have fallen for this trick. As long as you follow this manipulation they have the power. The day you as American Indians stand up and say, “we are American Indians” your position shifts from one of weakness to one of great power. Why? Now they say that you are illegal aliens. Alien is the opposite of indigenous. One cannot be both. If you are indigenous to this land and were here before they came you cannot possibly be illegal aliens. When you proudly say that you are American Indian you are automatically saying, “I have been on this land for tens of thousands of years”, “I am indigenous to this land”, “you are the illegal alien”, “I was here before you”, “you have no right to tell me who I am”, “you drew an artificial line on our land in order to take it and accuse me of be the illegal alien.”

You have enormous power at your fingertips right now. Imagine 100 million Mexicans standing in unison and saying we are American Indians and do NOT accept your definition of us as alien or illegal in our own homeland. By proclaiming your Indianness you immediately kill the illegal alien debate, going from the defensive to the offensive. And white America must now try and defend their naturally weak position created from their horrid deeds of the past 500 years. It is an indefensible position that they will eventually lose.

They call you illegal but the reality is the border between the US and Mexico is what is illegal in addition to the US and Mexico regimes themselves. It is an apartheid border intend to divide and keep brown people powerlessness. It is a racist border created out of imperialism and the colonization of indigenous people the same as in South Africa. Politicians are talking about temporary limited work permits, the same as Apartheid in South Africa. You can come in the master’s house to clean the toilet but must go home once the menial work is done.

White people in the United States have the same fears as White people in South Africa before the Apartheid wall fell. They fear being overrun by brown people. Imagine there is no border between the US and Mexico. Immediately there are 100 million brown Indians in the United States. Euro-Americans lose control of government, politics, business, etc.

This is exactly what is occurring on a slow basis. There are 100 million brown Indians in Mexico that are reclaiming the North American continent one person, one family at a time, and there is nothing Euro-Americans can do about it.. It is all a matter of time. The science of chaos theory tells us that we human’s cannot control things indefinitely and the harder we try to control the less we have long term. We know the old saying the best defense is a good offensive. If you are the illegal alien what better defense than pointing the finger at the true owners, as the illegal aliens, in order to hide your true status.

Eventually the border will fall because it is an illegal and racist border. By standing now and proclaiming your American Indian status you start the ball rolling towards removing the apartheid border. The North American continent is and always will be a brown continent. The power of 100 million brown consumers and voters CANNOT be ignored.
