Texas exists in the heartland of the Chicano nation. We’re not all bad. Many of us are progressives and are working hard to raise the level of struggle and consciousness in our activism.
Chicano nationalism is growing like wildfire among the intelligentsia in states like Texas in response to the sharpening of national oppression. These nationalists consider themselves progressives and will not bow down to state terror.
I grew up in the countryside with a very socially conservative background. Chicano nationalism binds me to the progressive movement and if it can happen to me, it can happen to anyone.
The work is hard and the stress high, but revolution is very much possible in the United States. I think it will happen within the next 25 years.
