Bigotry against Mexican Americans has a long history. Nevertheless I am grateful to be in this country and I love it. Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
After all I moved from Canada back to Texas two years ago! So yeah I love Texas.
I will post links to my reflections on being a Mexican American after the fold.
I will start first with my grandma.
