Mexico has historic grievances against the United States. The annexation of Texas is one of them. New Mexico and Arizona were part of Mexico; they try to reconquer these lost territories. The Mexican children are taught about these "illegal annexations". Indoctrination would be a better term. Many Mexicans believe that the US Southwest belongs to Mexico. The states that belong to this are: Califonria, Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona.

What the Americans did to Mexico, Mexico is doing to the Americans. As the Mexicans move in, Americans move on. For every immigrant who arrives, a white person leaves.

A Mexican writer who had come to Los Angeles in 1980 wrote that after Mexico City, Los Angeles is the second largest Mexican city in the world.
