My next installment in the series of Austin - McAllen trip: hope you like it! The directors of the event, Norma Vallejo and Chris Ledesma, had purposely chosen to have our meeting in front of the Capitol, because we did not want a confrontation with the Murrieta nasties. We were protesting in peace; we wanted people to become aware of these little children who were innocent. But the “Murrieta militia” was ready for action, it seemed. They were bored with their endless gazing at the border road with nothing but border road… At peak time, there were 30 to 40 of us, a nice number. We held our posters in the hot torrid sun, and we sang our songs of peace & fraternity. Chris Ledesma played his jarana, a small guitar-like instrument, while another colleague played its smaller version, called primera. We all joined in.
