Corrido de Reies Lopez Tijerina
Memory Lane time, back to my childhood, when my father was peripherally involved with Alianza Federal de Mercedes. I remember Saturday afternoons, standing outside the little building on Thirs Street in Albuquerque, listening to Reies Lopez Tijerina raise hell. I didn't speak Spanish, but his fervor came through. In many ways, Tijerina was the best public speaker I've ever heard.
