Broken
Spear
HC 30 POST 11 BOX 7
BROWNWOOD, TX 76801
"Broken Spears lie in
the roads. We have torn our hair in grief. The houses are roofless
now, and their walls are red with blood. The water has turned red,
and it has the taste of brine. We have pounded our hands in despair
against the adobe walls, for our inheritance was only a net made of
holes." (Tlatelolco, 1528) A
native's response to the final defeat of the great Aztec Empire at the end
of the conquest of Mexico.
