Happy Mexican Independence Day!

Happy Mexican Independence Day!

Remember that the struggle to true freedom is ongoing. La Conquista is still being sought. It is up to us all to pursue true freedom, happiness, and good health for all humanity and organisms around the cosmos. On day’s like these its good to reflect on where we have come from, what struggles our ancestors struggled through for our well being. I now better than ever understand what has happened… I can see the great strives we have accomplished as a society in these last 500 years or so but never the less I am painfully hurt by the scars of time that have not yet began to heal. Today as I reflect on the Mexican independence which is very dear to me I feel an inner struggle raging deep in my Soul. On one hand I am happy for the day when Dolores Hidalgo Declared Mexican Independence over the tyrannical rule of Spain… On the other hand I am sad to see the current status of most Mexican peoples who are at odds with an inefficient government that is still waging a race/class war on its people through ideological, spiritual, militaristic means. When I say most people that is exactly what it is. The rich and affluent in Mexican Society as in many “first world” societies do not need to worry about the problems most people in the middle to poor classes have to worry about, the reason being is that the balance is overwhelmingly tipped in their favor….

I am happy for the people of Mexico, but I am not happy about the current status of Mexican government for it shows to be no more than an extension of the colonial arms of Europe. I stand in solidarity with the Native, Meztisos, Caucasians, Blacks, Asian, & Middle Easteners who understand that we are all brothers and sisters in a struggle for a free humanity. I respect and honor the rights of all indigenous people’s of Mexico and all of the rest around the World, I believe they have a right to continue their traditions and culture as their ancestors did…As we continue to do. I believe in their autonomy and freedom from state sponsored persecution which they have suffered since the day Columbus set his eye sight on “America.”

So let me end with these words. May we continue to wage our struggle for independence from colonial forces that exist to this very day, so that maybe one day our descendants will be celebrating a true independence day.

Viva La Gente!
