Te voy a decir una cosa, no se si eres mexicana o no, la gente en mexico nos encomendamos todos los dias a la imagen que tu corrompiste, en mexico un dia de el año millones de personas vamos a agradecer la dicha de tener algo que es muy nuestro, en una capillas de el vaticano existe una imagen de la Virgen de Guadalupe, El papa en su despacho tiene una imagen de La Guadalupana, yo he vivido los milagros de la virgen, el simple hecho de convocar a miles de Mexicanos en un iglesia se me hace un milagro, unidos con esa sola intencion de estar con ella en su dia y cantarle las mañanitas

La Verdad no creo que seas mexicana un mexicano ama y respeta a su madre en la tierra y a la del cielo

GRACIAS

PD ESPERO QUE CON ESTAS PEQUEÑAS LINEAS TE DES CUENTA DE LO QUE LA GENTE SIENTE POR LO QUE TU DAÑAS ESPERO EN DIOS QUE ENTIENDAS Y VALORES LO QUE VES Y LO QUE DEFORMAS.

Dear Alma,
 
I would first like to start off by saying that I think you are an important and strong voice for the chican@ community, and your art is extremely important to us.  We need to continue to create a space for ourselves, and it is artists such as yourself that give us the strength and inspiration to do so.

Secondly, I am a reporter for KUNM radio here in Albuquerque NM, which is a public, community-based radio station.  I was wondering if you would be interested in doing an interview over the phone some time in the next week, as I am doing a story about it, and also will be covering the rally on Saturday.  I also was wondering if you might be able to get me in touch with others who could offer a strong chican@ and/or lesbian and/or feminist perspective on the issue.  So far I have emailed the other artists featured in the exhibition, Marion, Teresa, and Elena, and am waiting their responses as well. 

Thank You so much for your time, and stay strong,

Con Carino,
 
Lolita Roibal, KUNM radio
