I'd appreciate it if you'd be more specific. I see no evidence on their website.

Translating "la raza" as "the race" is not only inaccurate, it is factually incorrect.

I'll ignore this irrelevant part.

The NCLR was listed on their site back when the Trump fiasco began. I don't see it there now and it was probably removed....go figure.


I don't believe in advocacy groups for certain races or ethnic groups it's divisive and yes I would call it racist. I in particular object to groups that think their group is above our laws and should be rewarded for breaking them.


Ah, the ole spin on "La Raza". Nice try, but that's been tried before. Raza means race it's obvious. Call it people or whatever but it is exclusive to the Hispanic ethnic group.


The NCLR is of the same agenda that the San Diego La Raza Lawyer's group is even though the NCLR isn't a lawyer's association. Remain in denial if you wish. If that weren't so then why did the lawyer's assoc. give scholarships to illegal aliens just for starters?

There was no outrage -- no front page coverage -- just comments noting that our President thinks complimenting someone on their English is funny or necessary.

Yeah, just like it's obvious that embarazada means embarrassed? (Hint: it means pregnant)

The SDLRLA Scholarship Fund law student scholarships are awarded to full time law students in their first and second year of law school and part time students up to their third year of law school. Recipients are not limited to persons of a Latino/Latina background, instead the scholarships are awarded to law students from a variety of backgrounds who have contributed to the betterment of the Latino community. The recipients of the scholarships are law students who have met criteria of community service, financial need, hardship and academic achievement. The scholarships typically range from $1,000 to $5,000. Recipients are honored each year at the SDLRLA Annual Awards and Gala Dinner.

This is exhausting.

Do you ever do your own research or do you just repeat what you hear on Fox and Rush?

Are you implying that tRump hasn't bothered to learn Slovenian in order to whisper sweet nothings to Melanoma?



I mean, Melania...
