Theo Hirsch says the Mexicans at El Centro need to join the community

You cannot start a revolution by boycotting the community!  By: Theo Hirsch

El Centro Cultural De Mexico separates themselves from the community in many, many respects. Although I appreciate their anger and their rebellion; yet as a pinche Huero, I don’t really feel comfortable when I go there to visit although I do still visit. I mean, don’t get me wrong I do go there and there are some people who do welcome me, but the overall welcoming vibe just isn’t there.

“Cultural” es la palabra, No es “culto”

You have separated yourselves from the community in many respects and I find that to be a shame. It’s a shame that more people of white, European, background don’t feel comfortable there. Nor have I ever witnessed any black people; and maybe one Middle Easterner, (Andy) and that’s just because he was brown enough and not too black to fit in (and he spoke some Spanish).

  • I'm not trying to start a Mexican revolution, who ever said that doesn't know what their talking about. All I care about is balance around here... I haven't been hanging at El Centro much for the past 6-8 months. who knows, maybe their better then they use to be. I never had any problems there... Just saying.

  • "All I care about is balance around here"..... Hmmmm

    Obviously your balancing act is speaking Spanish in the English speaking meeting and tolerating Mexican National Socialistic Movement "El Centro".
