whose phone starts on t.v. dot com. end the war now i've thought we have walked from tijuana to demand

a ban on dishonest school recruiting. i stop the killing of young latinos. i am people of santa ana i've been to march to come together as one voice. no more fear no more fear you have the power i've. been on my fight goes beyond the iraq war when young people should stay in school and then when that. shouldn't become soldiers and fight for calls noble or not already legal or illegal for. these young people should not end up like his source you know that i'm going to make a fool not think of the. am

. or on day four of the peace march that we began until one on sunday. so yes instead we will walk ten to fifteen miles a day every one's welcome not just latino. you know everyone who supports peace i stuck up the whole lot but that. was how her how he thanked how. i . was.

her her her. people around the world are very interested in us and chicanos and she gun us why because a lot of us are fighting and dying in iraq right now a lot of our party and there's a you all may know are in the military. we work hard to create jobs so that latino's don't have to serve in the u.s. army i said recently that we try to tell the truth about military service. because the recruiters painted distorted picture of it. in one hour or so because his students who. are her. or her supervisor that i teach literature and chicano

studies about mexican americans in california. who has. i met fernando's warres dill so law in two thousand and three just after his son's death we will. that's when we began to work on ways to counter military. recruitment. i mean this means a lot somy because i'm a vietnam vet vietnam a slave it on the vietnam. look ystem was in one nine hundred ninety the clinton administration the military realized there were a lot of young latinos they could target for recruiting and in most books the most on us in quantity. latinos. because. you could give iraq war put pressure on the pentagon to step up recruiting and. not

be. back because so they targeted people without immigration papers. in document albums i can escape and. i move a lot of kids arrived with papers but they grew up here and there are only cells in need of inclusion and they went to school here that he will there bilingual and bicultural somebody who died. last week as the schools must give recruiters their students' names and addresses and phone numbers on this meet that. might. be less is willing to sink in if they refuse and they lose their federal funding. so the pentagon has direct access to all these young people. are going to be. there's no family privacy.

recruiters call them up every night run meant they lost brothers he spun a latino parents are up against recruiting drives all over this country. that. i. am in the. i. was. one of the most but alice liked where in front of sun ac into high school just three miles from. me yes they were from fed according to quantum mechanical and military have an office inside a unified delicacy don't. get

it here ninety percent of the students are latinos. i do miss of c.d.'s i stand shoulder to the instructor some courage the kids to train as a junior reserve officers that i'm a day off you see at least you knew you were going to be so many that he is on that i mean you got to end recruiters finish the job and enlisting them in the army is freedom out of london about a slogan is using data and i think it's. gone figures tell us that latinos and african-americans stand serve in the lower ranks of the u.s. military said reese's meet that is. the medals guy among the first soldiers to die at least three were hispanic and. the first marine killed in iraq was a guatemalan not a u.s. citizen.
