Whatever opinions you may have on Xikano-Mexikano people, the truth is that we're not illegals on this land. Tlapoyawa gives it to you straight and tells it like it is. Citing acclaimed and reknowned scholars and authors, he takes you step by step through the different chapters of historical Mexican culture and identity. After reading this compelling and thought provoking book, there will be no doubt in your mind of the ties and right Mexikah people have on the land now known as the Southwest. Aztlan is not a myth; it is a documented historical ancestral homeland of the Nawatl speaking people, and we, the descendants of the original people of this continent, have the right to migrate freely back and forth as we please, following in the tradition of our ancestors. This book is a must read for truth and culture seekers, myth de-bunkers, and students in Indigenous/Native American and Chicano Studies.
"We Will Rise" is based on the belief that Mexicano/Chicanos must begin our liberation from the correct point of reference. The bookbegins not with the Chicano Movement of the 1970s, or the Treaty of Guadalupe in 1848, or even the Spanish invasion of Mexiko in1519. It begins with our origins in the present-day Southwest U.S. thousands of years ago. It brings the reader full-circle to our current situation as an occupied nation in the Southwest. It offers a system for lifting ourselves to our former greatness and unity as a people, not through violence, but through Mexikayotl, in solidarity with our northern native brothers and sisters. It does all this in a very easy-to-read style, with clarity as well as beautiful original artwork. It is perfect for students of all ages. A truly uplifting book.
This is a great book for those in the beginning stages of learning Nahua History. Or Aztec/Indigenous History.Kurly Tlapoyawa's work on this book was eloquently structured for easy reading with vast information.A must read.
This book is an eye-opener. The information is thought- provoking and life-changing. I would recommend it without hesitation to anyone.
This book brings many things to light as far as the Mexikah history goes. I had been interested in doing research on indigenous "religion" which turned out to be a philosophy and a righteous way of life. This book along with others, have been very insightful, as well as going out and seeking knowledge from an indigenous group. This book is pretty spot on with what the indigenous group told me, and their philosophical teachings came prior to the release of this book. Panche Be part of the human experience. Don't conform to what you hear and what does not seem logically credible.
The book is great - informative and intriguing.This book really opened my eyes and it indeed changed what i do with my free time. In short, i have been awaken and now i seek more knowledge.
even though this is a short and easy to read book, it hooks u into reading other books that go more into deteail about the same topic. reveals many truths about history that has been hidden from us. everyone of indigenous decent should definately read this book.
