Flat brim bro from Santa Monica makes a 45 min video of himself eating tacos and driving…
Kinda interesting how, on this sub at least, they're seemingly almost glorified now. High school era, it felt like they were the kinda people you avoided if you wanted to stay outta trouble.
At the least, I'll give the lowrider/car culture folk credit for being chill; rather than burning through the street like all these Mustang/Challenger fucks, they seem to almost go intentionally slow, if not just parked so people can actually enjoy the sight of a nice classic ride. : ]
“East LA”
Goes to Boyle Heights…
I’m mexican y me importa madre what anyone calls me.
I am American born with Mexican born parents who are now US citizens. Growing up and finding identity was a thing. When I was in college I learned the term “Chicano” was a term made popular by college students in the 1960’s.
American born children of Mexican parents began to identify themselves as “Chicanos” in the 1960’s. The word Chicano was first used in the 1920’s. The word Chicano is believed to have been derived from the Mexican Indian warriors, “Chichimecas”.
For many American born of Mexican parents, the world “chicano” is important and prideful. I know many of you have your own opinions on the term but figured I’d share some information about the term Chicano.
What do i consider myself? American, that’s all. Just American. Was born here, live here, and work here. I acknowledge my heritage and respect it.
Shout out to my Chicano friends growing up
I’m an Asian dude that went to a majority Hispanic school, so growing up, I managed to learn to speak Spanish fluently and when talking, I’d say “foo” alongside “dude”
Dude seems aight by me. He’s invited to the carne asada.
Cool how some things change yet still remain the same.
