Bert Corona - Founding Father of Hermandad
"I call for the replacement of the present economic
system by one which is based on worker's control of the work
place..." (People's World, September 12, 1970)
Bert Corona is the father of Hermandad Mexicana Nacional,
the Mexican nationalist organization which is embroiled in the
Bob Dornan election fraud issue in Orange County. The Santa Ana
building which houses HMD is named after him. He is also known
for instigating violence at the Cal State Los Angeles in the
early 1980's.
According to a Los Angeles Times story of May 24, 1982:
"Professors in the Chicano Studies Department at
California State University, Los Angeles, have found their cars
set afire, brakes cut and tires slashed during a period of bitter
faculty in-fighting over jobs and tenure."
"There have been no arrests in any of those cases.
"But Los Angeles Fire Department arson investigators
probing the January blaze noted in a report that "there
has been much infighting between two main groups of Chicano factions....over
who is promoted over whom 'Attempted termination's of faculty...have
caused violent acts is the past,' the report said. 'And Cal State
police therefore believe that one of these factions is most
likely responsible for this incident.'
"The report did not name any suspects.
"But the faculty member leading the department's dominant
faction, Bert Corona, said he is widely suspected of instigating
the violence."
'There is a war going on at the university,' he said,
'Any time there's tension in the department, somebody's tires
get slashed, brakes are cut, a car is set aflame or a garage
is burned.'
A self-described militant, the 63-year-old Corona is an energetic
man with a booming voice and a Marxist-Leninist viewpoint.
"Although he lacks a college degree, Corona has taught
part-time at Cal State L.A. for a decade, surviving the University's
attempt to fire him for liberal grading practices."
SO HERE WE HAVE A MEXICAN COMMUNIST WHO TAUGHT
AT A CALIFORNIA UNIVERSITY WITHOUT A COLLEGE EDUCATION AND WHO
IS IMPLICATED IN FOMENTING VIOLENCE AGAINST ANY ATTEMPT TO REMOVE
HIM FROM HIS ILL-GOTTEN POSITION.
HE IS THE HERO AND FOUNDER OF HERMANDAD
MEXICANA NACIONAL.
ARE YOU WAKING UP YET AMERICA?
