I so miss working with ⁦@LAJourno⁩ but love being able to still read his work #chicanomoratorium #somosLAT One reporter's quest for answers about Ruben Salazar's death - Los Angeles Times latimes.com/projects/chica…

2/ “Chicanos will tell you that their culture predates that of the Pilgrims and that Spanish was spoken in America before English,” Salazar wrote. “So the ‘problem’ is not theirs but the Anglos’ who don’t speak Spanish.” #somosLAT

3/ Salazar worked overseas, returned to cover protests and police, was in a building fired at with tear gas and died at 42. This is still happening. It happened to me and to my colleagues. #Journalismisnotacrime

4/ Please share your thoughts and discuss #chicanomoratorium with these talented @latimes reporters

5/ You should learn more about trailblazing journalist Ruben Salazar in his own words: latimes.com/projects/chica…

6/ Thank you @latimes for all the work that went into #chicanomoratorium - if you care folks, please subscribe. @latimes #SomosLAT
