La Raza left because it objects to extremism
Tagged: Kansas City, La Raza, MissouriPosted on: November 4th, 2007
Last month, the National Council of La Raza’s board of directors voted unanimously to withdraw our 2009 annual conference from Kansas City and hold the event elsewhere.
Our decision was based on the appointment by Mayor Mark Funkhouser of Frances Semler, an active member of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, to an official position in his administration. While I can’t address every issue raised since the controversy erupted, the views and passion expressed — on both sides of the issue — deserve a response.”*
