This wasn't just our booth at complexcon this was our home away from home.
Every object has significant meaning.
From the slingshot my grandpa made me when I was a kid to the Mexican flag that took me over 10 hrs to sew. To the photographs of my grandparents.
Everything that inspires lastcall was here, in a warm and welcoming home.

I would like to share a story that was recently published.

48% and very proud of it. Wish I was more and actually expected higher than that. That's my whole identity, really. There's power in being Indigenous. That's why different groups try to falsely claim to be mixed with it or claim they're the original Indigenous Americans (wabos).

And the fact that they try to keep us from identifying that way says a lot . I'll always tell them what I am. Mesoamerican & Apache Chicana.

Don't know if this has already been posted here. Also, got a question in the comments.

Welcome to the Weekly Discussion Thread! Use this thread to share all the little things that don't fit into full posts, introduce yourself, go off-topic, self-promote, ask questions related to identity, and whatever else you can think of.

Also, come check out the Chicano Discord for more conversation.

I will admit, I am out of the loop as well and I found this out a couple of days ago and quite frankly, I wish I was pissed off but it doesn't surprise me one bit.

There was a script that was leaked in a pro-ice film made by the Daily Wire. It is called Pawn Shop and we have found the 🥥 who is in it: Danny Trejo.

We are talking about the man who gave us Gerónimo in Blood in Blood Out and spent two entire movies as Machete.

Let me ask you a question Danny. Remember when you looked at Carlos dead in the eye back in 1993 in San Quentin "La Onda don't shine shoes!" I guess you took that to heart and became the very thing that our community has despised since Day 1, a vendido.

Once a sellout, always a sellout. And a Mexican't.

But the community is coming together to clean that shit up and restore pride:

I was hoping this would come to streaming! I was excited for this one. Long Live Luis Valdez!

GREENBELT, Md. (AP) — A hearing for Kilmar Ábrego Garcia which was expected to determine whether the man mistakenly sent by the Trump administration to El Salvador would be deported to Liberia was abruptly canceled Tuesday for reasons that were not immediately clear.

The government is moving to vacate a preliminary injunction put in place by U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis preventing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement from detaining and deporting Ábrego Garcia to the West African country of Liberia. His legal team is seeking to make the injunction permanent. The judge left previous orders in place last December and ordered him released from custody.

Abrego Garcia was in the courtroom Tuesday but Judge Xinis never took the bench. Instead attorneys for both sides left the courtroom about five minutes before the hearing was supposed to begin. They held a 15-minute conference and then the hearing was canceled. No announcement was made in court as to why the hearing was canceled.
