Thanks Alot, AT&T

Corporate pandering par excellence increases alien influence

 

Since 1996, the AT&T Foundation has contributed more than $40 million in grants to organizations serving Hispanic communities across the country.

Back in 2004 San Antonio-based AT&T furnished the Hispanic advocacy organization with a $1 million grant in 2004. That original grant allowed LULAC to create 23 community technology centers in low-income Hispanic neighborhoods, including one in San Antonio. In 2005, the AT&T Foundation — the philanthropic arm of AT&T Inc. – switched 23 percent of its funding to organizations that primarily serve Hispanic communities.

Then in June of 2006 the AT&T Foundation again presented the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) with a $1.5 million check Friday at the group’s annual convention in Milwaukee. Indicating a similar mentality of pandering by the federal government, in 2008, LULAC National President Rosa Rosales was a guest of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for the State of the Union Address.

 

Because of these successes and others, LULAC has used money (and influence) to open an additional 36 technology centers within six months through its Empower Hispanic America with Technology initiative. 

LULAC-affiliated centers also help their people write resumes, apply for college, study for a GED degree, search for financial aid, apply for jobs and receive online assistance with citizenship applications. Most people served by these centers are either low-income and/or first-generation American Hispanic. Most also have never used a personal computer. Ongoing federal and corporate funding allows many LULAC Councils to provide assistance to illegal immigrants at the local level, usually with the goal of spreading its influence throughout the American landscape; their innate racial identification via “Hispanic power” growing exponentially. Most likely they also use these funds to open “Spanish” language radio stations, print newspapers and lobby for open borders, if not weaker enforcement.

 

Were it not for corporate pandering, groups like LULAC could have never made the inroads they now enjoy.

AT&T is one of the world’s largest communications companies, but has never given any funds to an openly pro-European American organization, its largest demographic customer base being comprised of European Americans.
