occupied america

In this chapter the author talks about how everyone has it bad in the U.S but Chicanos got it the worst. I understand where he is coming from and why he feels that way. Everyone knows that no matter what people say, this land belonged to Hispanic first regardless of what is going on now. Throughout the chapter he really dwells on how bad Chicanos have it now a day and that it is not fair to them because they should not have to fight for what is there’s. A quote that really made a lot of sense to me was when the author said that “those who seek power are deprived of their humanity to the point that they themselves become the oppressors”
