**EDUCATION**
American schools are struggling to educate Mexico's children. Instead of eliminating birthright citizenship for illegal aliens, or at the very least, teaching these children English, our American Public Schools are taking the easy way out. They are now accepting Spanish language textbooks from MEXICO.

This is part of a concerted program to educate Hispanic children in the United States, and to help the United States make the transition into a bicultural society this century. It is a way of understanding that Mexican culture is expanding across the border, that it is in ascendance, and that Hispanic and Latino children in the United States will never be blond, blue-eyed Anglos.”-Raquel Romero, director of Mesoamerica Foundation
