We do not know what a revolution is. It is a bloody thing. I say to my colleagues. That is where I came in. for I remember those beginning years as I was growing up in the midst of a group that today probably would be called refugees. At that time they were "just a bunch of Mexican greasers coming over to eat up our substance." And that was the constantly recurring turmoil of a 30year period in the history of that great Republic of Mexico. the bloodiest revolution in its history. The Russian revolutionary leaders used it as an inspiring model. incidentally.
