    Well before the illegals came over why wasn't the Mexican American wanting to do the job in the first place. Probably because the same reason the Caucasian American, the Black American the Asian American didn't want to, they didn't work that hard for that little pay so essentially the Caucasian hired the wetback and now they wana get rid of them.

    A Chicano or Chicana is any person born in the USA with Mexican heritage. You’re style doesn’t really matter, you can be a cholo, punk rocker, hipster, regular casual person, whatever, you would still be Chicano because of your heritage & that doesn’t change.

    Tejanos have the same problem with the Nortenos. Nortenos are North Mexicans and TEJANOS are hispanics of mexican decent that are from Texas. We both have similar music but Tejano music has added keyboards and Saxaphones. Tejanos food TEX-MEX has fajitas and a lot of cheese added. While Nortenos food is more mexican with smaller street tacos and no melted cheese.

    • @be6386
      @be6386 3 месяца назад

      From what I learned of Chicano studies is, Chicano was first used as an insult, than those people took that insult for themselves and owned it because it sounded nice, Chicano~ but also, it was a cultured created by people who were rejected by the Anglos of America because there were not white and rejected by there people who were in Mexico because they were seen as if they were no longer Mexicans and seen as more white because they couldn’t speak the native language and knew English more compared to Spanish, these people were the mix children’s, as well as Mexican American born, as well as Afro latin people they were hybrids, not American and yet not Mexicans thus they look back into a time in which they could belong in which they knew they belonged, the way of the Aztlan, there indigenous roots a time before the Mexicans existed, there culture, there way of life, they tried to dig up the past that was stolen and forgotten, they have now become critical thinkers, there Chicanos who try to decolonized this mentality that was forced upon them, a Chicano is much more than a white middle class feminist, she’s someone who not only speaks for women who face triple oppressions from race, gender and poverty, sometimes sexuality if it’s also part of her identity but also speaks for the people who aren’t seen, who aren’t recognized. Though I have not learned of the red children of the earth, Chicano is much more than a culture or an identity, it can be much more just like who most like to be called chicana or chicanx, it’s changes and evolves with the youth, heck MEChA was created by the Chicano movement in order for the next generations of Chicanos who can be part of it but also to pass on the torch of the culture and the hopes and dreams of those who fought for the basics humans rights we have thanks to not only them but to all the other people who contribute to make the dream a reality

    At the end of the day one cant separate a cholo from the chicano identity because cholos are Chicanos whether one realizes it or not. If one ultimately knows what a real cholo is then all mexicans and Chicanos are cholos becasue the true definition of a cholo is a Mexican/Chicano who fights against racism, assimilation and colonial domination and lives on the run. Someone who is persecuted. At the end of the day all Mexicans/chicanos are are cholos n one form or another becasue they are persecuted and fight for their culture. A ganbanger however is not a true cholo. And this we CAn and must diswon. A senseless gangbannger is a degeneration of what a true cholo is. The impulse to want to separate our cholo brothers and sisters from chicanismo is rooted in ignorance and self-hate. Often the most downtrodden and persecuted among our people are the ones who most need our understanding and our compassion, not our rejection!

    Chavez would of been painted as a Trump supporter by the left/media today. Absolutely nothing wrong with wanting a better quality of life and working conditions for the Mexican ethnic CITIZENS that he fought for. The narratives are so unbelievably twisted today that instead of getting to the root of the issue we just get divided into us/them argument and guess who benefits from it ? The people hiring immigrants. It's divide and conquer. Instead of asking why do you run from Mexico. This question alone would open up everything. Why do billions get sent to Ukraine/Israel when mexicans are being chopped up on the internet ? Why is the cheek turned ?! What does that say about us (America) that we allow our NEIGHBORS of the SAME LAND to be subjected to this while playing world police (gloabalism) elsewhere. They don't want to answer those questions, Mexico will never be in the same respect as Ukraine/Israel because America makes to much profit off of Mexican immigrants. They complain about immigrants yet they hire them for profit. I say this with love and hope that my Mexican people will understand so that we can move on and stop selling ourselves short. So that one day we don't have to run to a place that will NEVER appreciate us. This is what Chavez fought against, go ahead and be offended by the slurs he states but you know TRUTH when you hear it. Imagine how great mexico could be if we united to get aid like all these other foreighn policy benefitters. Instead we are brainwashed to claim it as our own and even watch Narco shows on netflix like its something to be proud of. People like Chavez are the men that this world needs now. We need to stop being used and our emotions hijacked by any political party until they address these issues. They have proven time and time again that no matter what platform either party runs on... money will be sent for war across an ocean. Why not Mexico ? Why not to stop the drugs and other crimes ? So that we will not have to run anymore but build our home in Mexico. In a consistent world this is what makes sense, not whatever we are doing today.

    Bullshit. What radical Chicanos call "Aztlan" does not belong to them. That territory is the land of many indigenous peoples--the Ak Chin, the various Apache nations, the Navajo, the Cocopa, the Hualapai, Havasupai, Hopi, Quechan, Zuni, the people of Maara, the Kizh, and many others. It does not belong to you just because your colonialist government Mexico claimed control Mexico never fully controlled that land.

    Raised by my grandparents in Casa Blanca, California, when WW II was over, at eight years of age I landed back with my parents again, in a California central valley psychically destructive 'company town' of Fresno. Exchanging visits with our beautiful, chatty, energetic and funny close cousins, Chicanos and Italian-Mexicans from Sanjo, my little mind gradually began to accumulate a lot of good news and positive thoughts about what turned out to be an old Spanish/Mexican town. Later I saw that, but my early general impressions during the late fifties saw San José as offering many more possibilities in employment, and (thank you Goddess of our Fates!), much less overt racial hatred than in Fresno. I met Sonny Madrid, eventually the publisher of Lowrider Magazine, in 1969, among many friends, some of them students at SJS(U). Riding with him I was impressed by the fact that he took his activism seriously. He would make reference to the specific needs he saw among the raza, and often we collaborated. He provided the text, and I provided the cartoons on leaflets outing 'vendidos' in our community. Example: a man who acquired money for a skills center, and while it never materialized, his nice clothes and flashy car did. In late 1976 Mario "Sonny" Madrid handed me the paste up of his new Low Rider magazine to "clean it up" and create ads for it. He suggested I do with the cover as I wished, and gave me the keys to a small house in Aptos, near Santa Cruz, to kick back, and to do my work. The raza responded most affirmatively to Lowrider Magazine, it was hot, and we were hungry to see ourselves in media, a marriage seemingly made in heaven. Hearing from my brother Rogelio, Sonny's compadre and bag-man in late '79 of the publication's success, I asked that he tell Sonny I wanted to be on the staff. One or two more calls to Rogelio only assured me I had to keep my SF shared apartment, rent a room near the campus in San Pancho, walk into the office and join the one individual white "production staff," who was caught by surprise, and wanted someone else white for the job. Without saying so, I dared anyone to question my employment. That is what I did, unwilling to leave my future up to Sonny's decision making. Being serious about my art since childhood, and big on grafica, and with a connect to bringing LRM to it's happy readers I couldn't pass it up. My best wishes to the Lowrider community, which finds friends of many cultures. This is how this artist feels about it:. 🌿❤🏆❤🌿 "El respeto al derecho ajeno es la paz" ~ Benito Juarez

    CORRECTION: Cholo is not a gangmember. Cholo is a Mexican American street fashion or style that evolved way after the pachuco and chuco styles. Typically, lowrider brims (derbys), slacks, shiny shoes, somewhat formal. Many Mexican Americans that are into lowridering have a Cholo style and never were gangmembers. The shaved heads, bandanas, white Tee shirt, khakis, chuks, nike cortez is not cholo. That is considered gangbanger or pandillero. Chicano is a Mexican who was born in the United States. A "real Chicano" is a Mexican who was born in the United States who knows his/her roots, history, and culture and does not accept the label "hispanic." Please pass this info on for the sake of our younger generations.

If someone asks If I’m Chicano , I say yes. If they ask if I’m Hispanic , I say yes because I speak Spanish and I’m part of the Spanish speaking community . I also answer to “ Mexican “ among other names 😁
