I never understood why people voted for Adelita. She had a truly horrible record on the TUSD Board and as president of the Board for so many years.
She was able to stay on the Board, because her father's dedicated volunteers collected signatures for her, put up her signs, and passed out her flyers.
She always had plenty of money, because PACs that supported her father gave her thousands of dollars. Can you imagine why a firefighters' union in Washinton DC would giver tens of thousands of dollars to Adelita when she was running for the TUSD Board?
Just her blind support of Pedicone, giving him a raise AFTER he banned MAS, and then HT Sanchez and his attack on the Deseg Order... privatizing the substitute teachers... the DO NOT HIRE list at TUSD... the list goes on...
The critique of Adelita Grijalva receives analysis from a Native American perspective.
Your critical evaluation of Adelita Grijalva's political communication methods is appreciated. I agree with many of the points you have raised. I wonder about the necessary strategies candidates, particularly women of color, must use to enter the U.S. Congress because it favors established practices and corporate backing, and silence over authentic leadership.
The current state of U.S. history represents an ongoing civil rights movement that faces fresh challenges to voting rights and bodily autonomy as well as tribal sovereignty and environmental justice. The fight for Native peoples has never stopped since the beginning. Native peoples have constantly endured the burden of political, economic, and cultural systems which demand compromise for survival.
I acknowledge that I do not fully understand Adelita Grijalva's complete strategy, yet I do not justify her support for AIPAC messaging. The situation demonstrates how thoroughly the system has been structured against us. The three elements of money influence and dissent policing and minority vote manipulation function as warning indicators which reveal deeper systemic problems. The current political environment requires us to analyze both candidate decision-making and the survival requirements for transformative voices within a system built to suppress them.
Our leaders need to perform at a higher level. We must examine the existing frameworks which force these performances to occur. The protection of sovereignty justice and dignity requires daily efforts from those who fight to defend them. Mary Cathleen Wilson, Tohono O'odham Climate Journalist/Educator.
