ABOUT THE Author
Ruben Barrera Vela Botello, JD
Author – Advocate – Veteran – Visionary
Born and raised in Texas, Ruben Botello shares impressions from over a half-century of Anglocation, Multicultural Education and diverse life experiences in this powerful narrative.
The author walks readers through disturbing childhood memories, military service, public advocacy and activism against the Vietnam war, ending with the White Supremacy reign of Donald J. Trump and Elon Musk.
From serving his country to advocating for and establishing grassroots initiatives for vulnerable communities in California, Dr. Botello’s narrative reflects compassion, resilience and a strong commitment to helping poor, exploited and oppressed people everywhere.
His critical perspective as an Aztlan Chicano shapes this deeply personal, political and philosophical narrative, firmly grounded in the enduring Ancestral Spirit of La Raza, La Causa and Justicia throughout Aztlan, the Americas and beyond.
