  WHEN:   Sunday, February 6, 2005, from 2 pm to 6 pm            February 
 2nd, marks the day when in 1848 a Treaty between two nations was signed.  
 The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo was signed between Mexico and the United 
 States.  This Treaty was to divide the Mexican territory now known as New 
 Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, Texas, California, Wyoming and Utah.  This 
 Treaty set the stage on the treatment of the Mexican people to this day.    
       The Cultural PeÃ±a of la Raza will have invited guests to speak 
 about the history and the conflicts that occurred during the 1800â€™s 
 as well as the origins of the Mexican people.  The invited guests will be 
 Jose Jacques Medina, a labor organizer from the Los Angeles area, Guillermo 
 Suarez an attorney from Los Angeles, Henry Villalobos a descendent of the 
 Aztecas, and many others.          There will also be cultural 
 presentations such as the well known artist and director of la PeÃ±a 
 Juchitireta Victor Hugo Sanchez as well as Christian Rodriguez a young San 
 Jose Raza rapper.          There will further be a recognition of  a long 
 time member of the San Jose community Aurora Becerra and active community 
 organizer, dearly loved by many for her human rights activism.  Aurora 
 Becerra has traveled to many countries that have attempted to change the 
 poverty conditions of the people such as Nicaragua during the Sandinista 
 government.  Aurora is now 87 years of age and it is fitting to honor 
 someone like Aurora who has dedicated her life to human rights.          
 The Centro Aztlan Chicomoztoc a community organizing center for la Raza has 
 been in existence since the year 2000 and inaugurated on February 2nd.  We 
 celebrate its 5 year anniversary as well.  \n
