“A control system maxim each and every Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) politician always had to obey was avoidance, at any cost, of doing anything that might cause a public outcry. During the more than 70 years the PRI governed and kept social peace in Mexico, no party member was allowed an indiscretion in the handling of policy or the economy that might cause the people to take to the streets demanding justice.

But today sleeping Mexican-Americans in the United States have awakened, and their presence is being noticed worldwide. Like it or not, we are facing one of the most important popular movements in recent years, one that will make a future difference on two worlds that are irreversibly entwined by geography and economies, and less and less separated by their people.”
