Why would La Raza's CEO be named one of “Washington’s 100 Most Powerful Women
If some people claim that La Raza (NCLR) is such a racist group and advocates of illegal immigration? Are these claims accurate? If they are, please provide some sources. Thanks, http://www.nclr.org/content/news/detail/60014/ NCLR PRESIDENT AND CEO JANET MURGUÍA NAMED ONE OF "WASHINGTONIAN'S 100 MOST POWERFUL WOMEN” Washington, DC—NCLR (National Council of La Raza) is pleased to announce that the October 2009 issue of Washingtonian magazine names NCLR President and CEO Janet Murguía as one of “Washington’s 100 Most Powerful Women.” She made the list with Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor and U.S. Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis. Murguía, who has served for five years as President and CEO of NCLR, the largest national Hispanic civil rights and advocacy organization in the United States, is being featured on this list for a second time, the first being in 2006. Other honorees include First Lady Michelle Obama, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, District of Columbia Schools Superintendent Michelle Rhee, and U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano, among others. Murguía has been recognized on numerous occasions for her work, including in Newsweek magazine’s “Women and Leadership” issue, as one of the NonProfit Times’s “Power and Influence Top 50” leaders, as People en Español’s “100 Most Influential Hispanics,” as one of Hispanic Business magazine’s “100 Most Influential Hispanics,” and as one of Hispanic magazine’s “Powerful Latinos.”

let's forego the obvious jokes about being on same list as Nancy Pelosi and the person responsible for the crime and drug-ridden DC schools...and simply say that the list's political bias is a bit obvious... ...I can see why it appeals to you so...

Isn't it cool to see that racism is OK in this country as long as you're not "white"! I couldn't be happier to have racist extremists running this country! What could go wrong with a situation like this?

Because those claims are all false. And did you notice nobody has posted any sources yet? LOL. La Raza does not mean "the race" either. The Translation of Our Name: National Council of La Raza Many people incorrectly translate our name, “La Raza,” as “the race.” http://www.nclr.org/section/translation/
