DECOLONIZE! The Battle of 5 de Mayo, 2015
5 de Mayo and AZ SB1070:
"We have exhausted all domestic remedies."
In 1862, Mexican conservatives or "Club de Notables" were allied with French emperor Napoleon III, who desired to incorporate Mediterranean states and former Spanish and Portuguese colonies in the Americas into a French-led federation (giving rise to the concept of a Latin America). The French American bloc (Latin-America) was intended as a geopolitical counter move to push back against the Anglo-American colonial project of the Americas. Both European American projects were intent (and still are to this day) to carve out their piece the "American Pie" by way of expropriation and exploitation of the natural resources and labor of our continent Abya Yala.
The competition among elites on both sides of the US-Mexico border continues today, even as both colonial power structures (Anglo-American and Latino-Americano) simultaneously COLLUDE under the guise of a MANUFACTURED "immigration" and "border security" crisis to accomplish the final complete extermination of all Indigenous Nations in North America.
WE WILL NOT COMPLY!

5 de Mayo and AZ SB1070:
"We have exhausted all domestic remedies."
The Battle of 5 de Mayo 2015 is a battle IN OPPOSITION to the imposition of
the label "Latin American" upon our ancestral indigenous peoples of
Mexico: the Indigenous Nations of Anahuac!
Comprehend this: The borders of latin-america (liguistic and
political) are a divisive mechanism of the settler states to accomplish in
collusion and in competition with their anglo-american bretheren settler states
of the north, the total and final annihilation and genocide of the Nations and
Pueblos of the Indigenous Peoples of Abya Yala Cemanahuac [the Americas].

In
2014, the empire is the global corporatocracy of petropolis aligned with
their philosophy of ECONOGENICS, who have determined that it will NOT
BE ALLOWED for Indigenous Peoples of Mexico, Nican Tlacah Anahuac to
be recognized outside of the bounds of the "Hispanic" or "Latino"
nomenclatures within US public policy structures.
Look at the current Meledres v. Arpaio Case against the Maricopa County Sheriff in Arizona - again.

According to the traditional ancestral teachings of the Nican Tlacah, the Indigenous Peoples of the Nahuatl Nations,
all of humanity shares equally in the warmth of Father Sun, and the
sacred sustenance from Mother Earth. Besides being a scientific formula
written in cultural terms (TONATIERRA) this relationship serves as TEOXICALLI: a
nest of consciousness and context for the full development of our collective human awareness and cognition one which
allows for the emergence of understanding, respect, harmony, and peace: CENYEMILIZTLI.
At the horizon of a new day, a New Sun, the Izalotekah bring
these traditional teachings forward upon the celebration of 5 de Mayo.
More than just a historical commemoration of the Battle of Puebla,
Mexico in 1862 the indigenous ceremonies related to 5 de Mayo have an
ancient astronomical significance. It is during these days celebrated
annually by the Indigenous Nations of Mexico, that a certain
constellation of stars gains prominence over the southern horizon in Anahuac for
the first time since winter: the CHACANA: the Southern Cross, also known as the
constellation of the Confederation of the Condor, Tawantinsuyo.
TENAMAZTLE OF THE COSMOS
Three Steps
Emergence – Presence -
Return
The three steps represent levels of attainment of
consciousness in the three 'worlds' or tiers:
* Hanan Pacha: the upper
world of the stars, celestial beings and gods (also represented by the condor)
* Kay Pacha: the middle world of Mother
Earth and human life (also represented by the puma)
* Uqhu Pacha: the lower world
of the underworld and death (also represented by the snake)
Central hole
The central hole represents the Incan capital of Cusco,
the portal from one tier to the next, and the Eye of God.
Twelve points
The entire symbol additionally represents the cyclical
year, with each of the twelve corners corresponding to a month.
Four arms
The four 'cross' arms represent:
* the four directions of the compass,
* the four 'classical elements' of earth, air, water and fire,
* the four main stars of the Southern Cross, an important constellation
for the Inca, who believed that was the centre of the Universe.

As members of the Indigenous Nations of the Continental Confederacy of the Eagle and the Condor,
El 5 de Mayo is thus also a commemoration of the ancient Treaty between
the North and the South which mutually binds us to this day as Nations
of the Indigenous Peoples of this continent Abya Yala and the world.
Originating
from settlements of the Indigenous Nations of the Nahuas, Chichimecas
and Toltecas, the region known as Zacapoaxtla is recognized for
providing the majority of fighters at the Battle of 5 de Mayo in 1862.
These some 4,000 Indigenous Peoples faced the bayonets and rifles of the
8,000 man French Army armed only with only machetes and valor. They
emerged victorious, and left the legacy of one of the most significant
military victories by the Indigenous Peoples of the continent against
those who would subjugate us to colonization.
The French were arrogant and Eurocentric in their thinking, and were eventually deported back to Europe. Today we face the same battle, and must recall the same courage as in 1862. But today our weapons are not instruments of destruction and death. Today we are called to battle not in a military campaign, but against the doctrines of cultural supremacy, racism and fear that would deny the reality of our common humanity that we share with each and all
Today our weapons are our Principles: Respect, Dignity, Cultural Self Determination and EDUCATION, as we advance in the Battle against Ignorance, the Battle of 5 de Mayo!

Spain
imposed a Spanish Only policy in the Vice-Royalty of New Spain, which
resulted in the suppression of the continuity of development, in
intellectual terms, of the indigenous cultures. The criminalization and
stigmatization of a Peoples’ aboriginal form of expression as a
deliberate policy results in the psychological genocide of the
succeeding generations. The success of the policy is reinforced by the
other levels of genocide: physical, cultural, and political - but the
pogrom of psychological genocide is the most pervasive of sciences and
necessarily so.
South of the Rio Bravo, the European
allegiances (Hispanic, Latino, Portuguese, etc,) are a numerical
minority and to retain control over the predominantly indigenous
population of Mexico overt colonization is not viable. Instead, the
concept is to control the Mexican allegiance by ursurping the symbolism
and nationality of the ancient indigenous political confederacies of
Mexico (Aguila y Nopal, Piedra y Agua, TENOCHTITLAN) thereby subverting
the liberation of the Nican Tlacah, Indigenous Peoples of Mexico
Profundo in an age of DECOLONIZATION.
de origen nahua, dijo sentirse orgullosa
de ser indígena, destacando en su discurso la necesidad de rescatar los
valores e incluir a esta comunidad dentro de la política y agenda
social. Durante su discurso habló con elocuencia lo mismo de valores,
como de retomar las tradiciones nacionales, o sobre la distribución de
la riqueza. La niña integró en el 2013 el Parlamento Infantil del
Congreso del Estado y en mayo dio un discurso en la premiación del
Concurso Nacional de Narraciones de Niñas y Niños Indígenas, organizado
en el Palacio de Gobierno, donde habló sobre el respeto a las costumbres
indígenas. Estudia en la Escuela Primaria Profr. Rodolfo de León
Garza, en Escobedo, municipio del área metropolitana donde radica.
G'chi-Miigwech. This is very helpful and packed full of knowledge. I have been able to educated myself better with knowledge and history from my relations in the South, who are also fighting the effects of colonization on their lands, their people and their waters.
