MEChA Constitution

not only of its proud historical heritage but also of the
brutal "gringo" invasion of our territories, we,
the Chicano inhabitants and civilizers of the northern land of
Aztlan from whence came our forefathers, reclaiming the
land of their birth and consecrating the determination of our
people of the sun, declare that the call of our blood is our
power, our responsibility, and our inevitable "....Aztlan
belongs to those who plant the seeds, water the fields, and gather
the crops and not to the foreign Europeans. " |
