Seriously, through all of Pacheco's name-calling and saying that Ann is racist, Pacheco is the racist. The article's first paragraph says:
"[Latinos] are the face of America, and if you don't like it, there's the door."Not only is this comment illogical, untrue, and misleading, it is also more blatantly racist than anything Ann has ever said. Ann never said something paralleling, "White people are the face of America, and if you don't like it, there's the door." Either way, whites (being more numerous and having a longer history in America than Hispanics) have more legitimacy in saying this than Pacheco has saying the sentence, but with Latinos.
The Flama describes itself like this:
"Flama is a digital network created by, for and starring young Latinos... [We desire to] bring awareness to issues affecting our heritage and lives. We aim to capture and celebrate the Latino spirit."Why would a website so focused on "heritage" and "[celebrating] the Latino spirit" publish something so racist and libelous?
