ALIENS they say pointing toward an imaginary fungal faultline perhaps riven across the glossy belly of a taco-shaped space ship on the horizon perhaps propped up by 4,437 spindly legs and most definitely painted with a black, curling mustachio somewhere somewhat shattered in the land of colonial hangover and vague...

The New N****** in Town

Categorized under Derechos Humanos , El Malestar Pálido , Raza | Tags: ALIENZ, Format, historia, racism

Illegals is the 21st century version of 'nigger'. That is what I hear when the term is thrown at undocumented families. Just like nigger was (and still is, although less overtly) the soundtrack to the murder and oppression of black folks, 'illegals' is the political theatrical score for the...

To Some, Hate is a Game

THE LINE BLURS between "Illegal Immigrant" and "Hispanic" because those who hate need no reason nor well-defined boundary for their hate. In fact, the nature of hate inherently resists as much. All that is needed are thinly-veiled justifications and mainstreamed channels through which the haters can ooze their spiritual...
