Here is this wonderful, talented human being with a message and story to uplift people and right on top of it come the hate mongers to try to destroy his vision. Some of the comments on this presentation are as vile as those who do everything they can to spew hate on anything not like them: white and stupid.

The comments are repulsive. How sad that it must
follow such a positive presentation & vision. Let it
not detract from his message.

I was not introduced to the work of Raúl R. Salinas until very shortly after his death last year. I’d received an email invitation from San Francisco author Alejandro Murguía, to the Galería de la Raza in the Mission to celebrate Salinas’s life.

Waukegan Public Schools. This September, taking my students to the Mexican Museum of Fine Arts then off to a local restaurant to enjoy Mexican cuisine. My third trip to the museum with students- they love seeing their culture on display, you can see it on their faces. :-)

It's important that our youth have the opportunity to see leaders, teachers and mentors in their own image so let's keep it up and be there for them, encourage them, and believe in them. Si se puede.
