  • Mexican American musical group Yahritza y Su Esencia have been the target of criticism for comments they made during a recent trip to Mexico. In today’s video we are talking about the public backlash against these American-raised siblings. The things people are saying are bringing up a lot of mixed emotions for us so we thought it might help to process it all via this video. We'll share our personal views on the topic, and tie it back to a much broader problem.

      Realmente me sorprende cómo la gente puede ser tan crítica con Yahritza y Su Esencia por simplemente ser honestos y responder una pregunta de manera sincera. ¿Acaso no es esto lo que se espera cuando se hace una pregunta? Si solo queremos respuestas que nos agraden o que sean completamente positivas, ¿cuál es el propósito de pedir opiniones? Es natural que cada persona tenga sus propias experiencias y percepciones, y eso no significa que no aprecien la cultura o el país. Criticarlos por simplemente expresar su sentir muestra una falta de madurez de parte del público. Si no estamos preparados para escuchar respuestas sinceras, mejor no deberíamos hacer la pregunta. Es triste ver cómo la sociedad actual se ofende por todo y cómo muchos buscan razones para quejarse en lugar de entender y respetar las opiniones ajenas.

    I grew up in the Pacific Northwest. The mexican population wasn't that big 10 years ago. I agree with them. I grew up speaking both languages. But English became my first language. I often got English and Spanish mixed up. Often speaking English with a Spanish dialect. I'm not American enough for here. Because they have an outlook on us being a "certain way." People ask me where I was born. I told them I was born and raised here in the pnw. They look at me like I'm lying to them and make me feel like wow you think you're better than " But on the other hand, when I was growing up I went to Michocan to visit family. I got called out for being a white washed mexican. And when I spoke Spanish, I would get made fun of. To the point I would get shy and feel inferior. It made me put me into overdrive to where I took Spanish and advanced to college even in high school. But today, I associate with my mexican side more them my American side. Yes, I'm proud to be an American, but in some cases, people think you have money or you think that you are better than them. I have family who was born in the us, and they act like this. It's sad we lost communication with them. I'm sorry for the longggggg comment. But this really hits home

      I'm Mexican-American, and I will say that I used to be the same way. I was super prejudiced against my own people. Especially if you were from the southern part of Mexico. I would look down on them and even make fun of them because of their accent. This is something that I'm not proud of at all, and I was also very immature at the time. I love America 🇺🇸 but I've also learned to Love my Mexican culture! I said all this to so say one thing and that's that these kids are immature and haven't learned to filter what they speak!

    Our parents come to the US and they are trying to survive, often working more than 40 hrs per week. As a result, the entire family is on survival mode; children doing HW on our own, translating for parents, filling out legal documents at a young age, etc. Our parents do not have the luxury to teach us to appreciate our culture. Therefore the culture is diminished and lost because everyone is busy trying to survive and assimilate to the US culture. Also, like Kevin pointed out, all of us have various access levels to resources in the US, I am thinking these kids do not have a access to the world and culture outside of Washington. I personally did not try different foods until I had my own career, well into my mid-20s because I couldn’t afford that luxury.

      The other part is that the parents themselves may have felt victimized by a "culture" that excluded, alienated, ostracized, discarded or oppressed them, a culture that never gave them a real fighting chance. Therefore, they may not feel particularly compelled to transmit that same "culture" to their offspring.

It’s all the history and baggage that the term comes with. Plus, Mexicans are not all brown, some are black some are white. “Because you’re brown and from Mexico, you SHOULD like XYZ” I don’t think it’s fair to put people in a box like that.

    I am from Mexico, and I am seeing here Mexican-Americans making a wrong assumption; you guys think that Mexico is canceling Yaritza; it’s not the country of Mexico, it’s their fans, fans of the genre of “regional mexicano “. The press was very understanding of the situation; I saw a show with Adela Micha, a famous journalist, and she spoke in favor of Yaritza as other tv shows.
    They understand they are young kids, and there is always a fuzzy eater in our family; we understand she feels more comfortable speaking English ; but when you are selling a product directed to Spanish speaking market (regional Mexicano); you cannot say: “voy a hablar español cuando yo quiera y si no les gusta se pueden retirar” and that is exactly what their fans are doing.
    When you are a public figure you gotta be careful with your choice of words; she came across very prepotent; and that is what people in Mexico dislike (specially in regional mexicano) it’s not the comments about the food, or language preference. Angela Aguilar had the same problem, she seems prepotent.

Aqui veo a mexicanos que les encanta Starbucks, McDonald's, Subway, Little Caesar's, Popeye's, cheken, desprecian a la musica regional mexicana, la denominan "naca" y "fea", hablan de "indios patas rajadas", que se burlan de la comida callejera mexicana y hablan de "donia panchita en la esquina vendiendo sus taquitos" en tono burlesco, actos y palabras mucho mas ofensivas que cualquier cosa que dijeron estos chamacos.

    Jenny, I share your views and found myself conflicted as well. I would’ve like to see the focus on positive experiences of their visit rather than dislikes but I believe they were experiencing some culture shock and struggled with navigating that conversation.
    In viewing the social content coming out of Mexico, I strongly believe Mexico’s deep-seated systematic racism and classism were exposed both consciously and unconsciously. It was extremely disappointing to see that their skin tone and indigenous heritage and features were used to belittle them and enforce a sense of “inferiority”. On the other hand, I can empathize with Mexicans who were upset by the straightforward statements and the perception that they benefit from Mexico and it’s people, yet express cultural contempt (no matter how minor) understandably triggered anger.
    As a first generation Chicana myself I understand navigating both worlds can be complex. There's a significant level of scrutiny that Mexicans can subject you to and in recent years Mexican-Americans have increasingly started to gate-keep Mexican culture and imposing their own criteria for defining Mexicanness. However, that’s a topic for another day.
    Thank you both for sharing your thoughts. In this climate it can be risky to have an unpopular opinion but I believe it is important to have open dialogue to help us bridge our cultural differences.

I am sure they have their own biases but to cancel them and bully them for these comments wasn't right. Now all of us, parents with kids that don't speak perfect Spanish or any Spanish are going to think twice before bringing their kids to Mexico. No one wants their own people putting down their kids.

    Speaking on the group Yahritza y su Esencia, I don't think there's anything wrong with them not favoring certain dishes from a certain country, but to make it seem as though it's all unappetizing and compare it to a completely dissimilar nation where everything utterly contrasts, can be seen as pure insolence by others. I am Mexican/Argentinian, and personally, there are certain foods that I don't like from either place, but I would never behave in such a discourteous manner or make any snide remarks. There are several methods of conveying your stance on a subject matter and voicing your preferences, as long as you're clever about it. There is a reason that they say "think before you speak." It can either be beneficial or disadvantageous. In addition, refusing to speak a language that is in fact the main language spoken by the supporters of a person or group, simply because they refuse, demonstrates nothing but arrogance and mindlessness.
    Unequivocally, "pocho" is a derogatory term meant to disparage others, point blank period. I'm from a border town in Arizona, therefore I grew up around the Mexican/Latino people, culture, and have extensive knowledge about the language, customs, food, etc. I have perceived that many Mexicans, especially nationalist ones, tend to denigrate those who were not born in the country of Mexico and are of Mexican origin, but applaud non-mexicans when they say anything in spanish, regardless of how nonsensical it may be. Many of them also tend to be very censorious regarding the physical appearance of others. I personally find their behavior quite derisive and hypocritical. Unfortunately, this type of dismissive conduct towards noncitizens seems to occur in various countries around the world. They make it seem as though they are envious and irascible people, which is lamentable. If people of Mexican descent are ashamed of their roots, they say, "Son de descendencia mexicana y se avergüenzan de sus raíces. Con en nopal en la frente. Se creen gringos. Se creen porque son de allá. Son racistas." But if you are proud of your roots, they say, "No son mexicanos porque no nacieron en México. Son pochos. No saben nada de México. No hablan bien el español." Damned if you do and damned if you don't. Hypocrisy at its best. This is why you shouldn't care about how you're perceived by others, especially when they go through life negatively judging everyone and everything. How can people expect others to respect them when they can even respect their own? This is simply my viewpoint on this particular subject matter, so if any offense is taken by my opinion, it's not my issue and you need to work on your emotional stability. Si te quedó el saco, then work it honey! You look amazing!

      La entrevistadora les preguntó cómo los trataba la Ciudad de México. Yahritza interpretó esto como si se referiera a si les gustaba la Ciudad de México. Independientemente de si malinterpretó la pregunta, eso es lo que entendió y es la pregunta que respondió. También es la pregunta a la que respondieron sus hermanos. Gustarte (o no gustarte) un lugar es un tema complejo, ya que abarca una constelación de factores, como el clima, la infraestructura, el nivel de ruido y, en muchos casos, la comida.
      Ella no dijo que no le gustaba México o que no le gustaba la Ciudad de México. De hecho, precedió su comentario diciendo que le gustaba y solo entonces agregó las cosas que no le gustaban. No estoy seguro en qué mundo vives si crees que algún país o ciudad es perfecta y, por lo tanto, todo sobre élla es agradable.
      No veo dónde mi respuesta muestra una "falta de educación" o "inteligencia". Dado que decidiste atacar mi nivel de educación y/o inteligencia, simplemente señalaré que soy miembro de dos sociedades de alto coeficiente intelectual y tengo amplios conocimientos en política, literatura, historia, filosofía, entre otros temas. De hecho, probablemente sé más sobre México, su historia y su música que tú.

    Born in south Texas 1953. My grandfather came from Monterrey N.L.. My father was born here. I spoke basic Spanish before entering the public school system where speaking Spanish on school grounds was punished with swats to the butt with a paddle. Served in the U.S. Navy for one enlistment in the early 1970s during Vietnam. Luckily I stayed stateside with naval aviation. Proudly served. Honorably discharged. Providing for my family took a lot of my time and sadly I did not pay enough attention to my culture so I could pass it on. I have always been aware of the struggles any minority, black, brown or any other non-white. On any endeavor one undertakes you should prepare yourself as best you can. These young men should have been made aware of the situation they were going to be in.. In the original Selena Movie, her father warned Selena about how the media and the public could turn on her. All human beings regardless of country of origin are too quick to put someone else down. These young men should be given a break for not being aware.

    I’m a Mexican American born in Mexico but raised in the US since the age of 3. What I cannot understand is how in the interviews these kids could not clearly express their love and appreciation of Mexican culture when their whole musical career and their music videos are infused with Mexican sounds, cultural symbols, mannerisms, style of dress, and they even sing in Spanish. They would have to be so ignorant, secluded, and not have access to anything Mexican to be quick to dismiss the treasures of Mexico and just say that back home is better. I’m sure they have access to internet and their whole music production process likely exposes them to a lot of Mexican culture. I would not give them a pass at all. For me they’re just very spoiled, uneducated kids who think they can say whatever they want and not deal with the consequences. I have 5-yo nieces and nephews in the US who can show you way more pride about their Mexican culture, including food, than these teenagers. Such a shame! Growing up I also felt embarrassed sometimes about some aspects of the Mexican culture that I did not connect with, but I would NEVER generalize it to the entire Mexican culture as a teenager, and I would also be a little more smart to know that if you’re making a living as an artist who distinctly dresses, talks, and sings with a Mexican flare, that you would at least appear to be more appreciative of your cultural roots. Just sayin. New subscriber here!

      The dynamics between Chicanos and Mexicans are much different than the dynamics between Polish Americans and Poles. For one, Chicanos and Mexicans aren't separated by an ocean and a continent; Chicanos and Mexicans live side-by-side as friends, neighbors, and are often members of the same family and the same household. Second, both cross the border daily, interacting with each other daily, in millions of transactions, both economic and social. In fact, Chicanos and Mexicans are so much more alike than Polish Americans and Poles that the Mexican government considers that the Mexican nation is no longer limited to its borders, but is in fact a "transterritorial nation" that encompasses both Mexicans in Mexico and Mexicans and Mexican-Americans in the US. On top of that, Mexicans in northern Mexico have adopted many of the words of the Spanish that has evolved in the US from Mexicans and Mexican-Americans, such as "lonche," "troca," and "parqueadero."
      However, I do agree with your last comment. Most of the criticism comes from central and southern Mexicans, who don't have that constant interaction with Chicanos, like the Mexicans of the North do.

      Chicanos are different than regular Mexican-Americans. Chicanos are a subculture similar to the Black Panther/power movement. Richard "Cheech" Marin was a Chicano, his father was an LAPD officer was a Mexican-American. Not all Mexican-Americans (if not most) like being called Chicano. Rejecting American assimilation and embracing indigenous identity are part of its core.

  • @beachlife8367
    @beachlife8367 Před rokem +5

    This may be a bit lengthy, so I apologize in advance. Just yesterday, I heard someone say that a cultural shift happened at the advent of the telegraph. Now, that goes way...way back....to the 1800s. The reason for this shift, according to the speaker, was because prior to the telegraph, news was localized. And when something was "news", it was generally information that was meant to be acted upon. If you heard that Jim's barn down the lane was on fire, that information was meant to be acted upon, meaning you were told that Jim's barn was on fire so that you would grab a bucket, some water and help put it out. That's why you were told about it. But when the telegraph came along, you could hear news (information) that you "couldn't" act upon: If you got a message that Jim's barn, which was 100 miles from you, was on fire, it was just...news. Useless information to the degree that even if you wanted to do something, you couldn't, because you were too far away. I say all this to say that we are bombarded with information that we cannot or will not do anything with. It is just useless to us. It doesn't mean it's not important; it does mean, however, that it is just clutter in our minds because we cannot do anything with it. We store up tons and tons of this useless information daily. What does this have to do with the subject of this video? The Internet has become a living, breathing "thing", that tells us when we are right and when we are wrong. It constantly feeds us information and tells us what we should think and feel about it. If we say something "the Internet" does not like or agree with, it quickly puts us in our place. It cancels us, it berates us, it shoves us into a corner until we come out with our hands up in surrender. It has gone beyond just the verbal: people's whole lives have been impacted by this thing called the Internet. People have lost jobs, lost their places of residence, even lost their lives, because of the Internet. For the hosts of this channel, they are living in two different worlds, both of which are being shaped and monitored by the Internet. It says that they are not Mexican enough or American enough (I shouldn't say American, because Mexico is part of America, but for this example we will just go with it). It would be different if it was localized. But with the Internet, it cannot be local. It is global. And it is eternal. I totally understand where Jenni and Kevin are coming from. Being Black but going to school with White kids when I was much younger put me in a similar situation. I'm too Black to be White, but too White to be Black. I cannot be just...me. I have to be what society says is acceptable. Who decides what a Black person is? Where is it written down that to be Black (or Mexican or whatever) you must check off this, this and this box? Who cares? And who decides that it is YOUR duty to tell ME (or in this case, Jenni and Kevin) that I am not good enough in either category to be one or the other? If Jenni and Kevin want to go to Mexico to discover more about their heritage, that should be celebrated and embraced. I would think that Mexicans would be proud to say that two young people from the US wanted to come to the "motherland" and learn about that part of their culture. And I would think the US would be proud to have two people from Mexican heritage in the US offering cultural diversity and contributing to the overall health and wellbeing of the country. As for these artists who said what they said: I have no opinion one way or the other. They said what they said. Who cares? They were being honest. We can say that maybe they didn't say it correctly. OK, fair point. But how many times have we opened our mouths and said something we wished we could have said differently? I also do not like that people have to always come back and apologize for something they said, when the only reason they are doing it is so that the Internet will get off their backs. If you said what you said and you truly want to apologize, OK, that's all fine and good. But I don't like when people are forced to do something, especially if it is against what they truly feel. What has any of this to do with my original point? The Internet is the new telegraph. It gives us information that we cannot do anything with. We are wired to have some sort of reaction to information. When we cannot DO anything with information (in this case, the singers making off-handed comments), we resort to the one thing we can do: judge. And that's where we become even more divided. Because if I come out on this side of the subject, and the Internet comes out on the other, then I open myself up to judgment and criticism. It's just not worth it anymore. OK, I'm done.

    As for the last clip. From what I found on TikTok. It’s NOT an interview. That girls name is Meche and is Yaritza’s friend, I think they even dated! So it seems they often go on Live and talk English! In his clip they were talking English at the beginning then Meche starts teasing Yahritza bout her Spanish and how she’s a no sabo kid. Yahritza seems a little upset like I could tell she was trying to respond in Spanish but didn’t really know what to say so then she starts making funny faces. I think this is how it stated. It’s definitely the same day bc they have the same clothes and the girl is doing her makeup. So in this context I don’t see it bad that she’s telling her friend who she always talks in English to talk to her in English after she called her a no sabo kid

    This group sings regional mexican, which has nothing to do with race. If you're going to sing regional mexican and in México, then be prepared to answer questions in spanish; most of that audience's primary language is spanish. In my opinion, it wouldn't be a big problem if they were from another genre. Also, the group are mexican descendants, not mexican-born. There's a difference. Bueno cambiando de tema.
    El sábado pasado, mi novia y yo fuimos a un restaurante y en la televisión estaban emitiendo vídeos de regional mexicano. Entonces ella me preguntó por qué los hombres de este género tienen sobrepeso y son poco atractivos. La miré y le dije que no tenía ni idea; la señora sentada en la mesa de al lado nos oyó. Le sonreí y asentí con la cabeza; mi novia se avergonzó y dijo que iba al lavabo. Esta señora me preguntó la muñequita es argentina. Le contesté no, es uruguaya; ella se sonrió.

    I’m a retired music teacher and am blown away by Yahritza, not just her singing but her songwriting skills at such a young age. She has a very rare gift and if what they say is true, that she taught herself how to sing, write and play guitar, then she is a force of nature. She wrote her song Soy El Único at the age of 13.
    I don’t listen to regional Mexican music as I’m more of a Chente and Luis Miguel kind of gal, but Yahritza’s talent has me listening to everything she has composed up to now. She also has song writing credits on Frágil and Las Flores, both of which are beautiful songs. I want her to continue writing and growing as a musician. She could be one of the greats in the future and I will support her because of her talent.

    I have also said that perhaps their parents and family have just not been able to provide the lessons that some Chicano kids have. My experience was that, I knew how to speak Spanish from the time I knew how to speak but I as a young teen wanted to belong to the kids I was surrounded by I was conflicted with being from here as in the U.S vs people assuming I was from there as in Mexico. I just wanted to be me and for a long time the assumptions that I wasn’t either bothered me so growing up here I embraced it but if anyone spoke negative about Mexico or Mexicans it angered me so I have been there man, I have felt all of it and I must say it’s taken probably a good 40 years to just say f it let’s go with the flow and now I can for the most part adapt to any situation and just embrace the chicana me without thinking twice about it. We as a society of Mexican people should give them some grace. I wish I had granted myself that same grace at that age.

Angela Aguilar during the World Cup she said that she had some Argentinian blood in her, and she was sheering for Argentina when they played Mexico and now she's not feeling arenas even her dad tried to apologize and its not working. the sad part for these kids if Mexico doesn't accept them back they won't make it.
    These is not RACISM they insulted the Mexican people and the culture that all. And since you been there you know Mexicans don't hold back they say what they are thinking. and unfortunately in the states any criticism its Racist. and I saw there apology and there apology was fake in my opinion. life is about decisions one bad decision can ruin you. please don't say that Mexico is Racist these kids messed up...

    I went to a sold out Yahritza show here in San Antonio a few months back. The reality is, this issue isn't that serious, it just tends to catch headlines on social media and people run with it. In the real world, they have fans and people dont't care all that much about a comment about not liking food. It serves as an example of how the internet can make up issues and make them seem bigger than what they are, but in reality, it isnt a huge deal.

As somebody who has lived in both countries and who is integrated to both cultures (I speak English and Spanish perfectly, and when in Mexico, I don't stand out as a "pocho" - locals here think I was born here because of my flawless Spanish), I have seen the hate go both ways, and it pisses me off when I see it. If I see a Mexican-American belittling a Mexican for not speaking English, or for being a "mojado" (my parents were mojados), or for whatever, I will stand up for that Mexican. And if I see a Mexican belittling a Mexican-American for not speaking Spanish or not speaking it well enough, or for being a "pocho", or for whatever, I will stand up for that Mexican-American.

    Mexican culture in general is a very formal. As a child you are taught to show deference in all aspects of life, to be a well natured individual, and generous to all you meet. That is not the American way, not even close! 😂 The kids will learn or fizzle.
    Personally I’m of the Timbiriche age and can still remember the love, admiration, and respect they had for their Mexico. But they where from Mexico and understood the expectations.
    To your point about pochos. I’ve noticed, in media, that sounding pocho/a/x as a Mexican who drops in some Spanglish here and there signals a private education or an elevated social standing and therefore acceptable. But if you genuinely struggle with the Spanish language [and from the USA ] you are now a pocho. I feel like the double standards is a reflection of the social dissonance MEXICO struggles with when it attempts to understand the impact it’s system of immigration has on us all.

      These kids are Americans who look Mexican. They didn't grow up in a pueblo. They will be outsiders intellectually and spirituality, but not physically.
      This has been stated by European when "German" or "French" Americans visit their ancestral homeland. There is no such thing as a hyphenated American. You're just an American. An American in your ancestors homeland. It's oxymoronic, yet it's the fate of all immigrants to be cosmopolitan and deracinated. Sad but true.

      I think you watched La Rosa de Guadalupe and missed the whole point of the show which is to criticize society (and does a very shitty and hilarious job at it). People who speak spanglish in Mexico usually fall into two stereotypes, Fresas or what kids call them now Whitexicans who are usually people who think everything American is better simply for being American and usually come from mid-high class families, the best comparison to an American stereotype are dumb blonde white girls from California, the other stereotype is that it is said by rural types from the border area, usually very uneducated who say things like "troca", "parkin" or "mol", both stereotypes are very negative, the 2nd is almost the equivalent of a "redneck" in Mexico.
      What comes as someone who shows signals of a private or elevated education are fully bilingual people.

      "Timbiriche" was made up of by fresas/fifis. They are 1000% Mexican, even though they were all, "'fresas chilangas." They knew how to "congraciarse con la gente popular." They understood that they belonged to the "haves" but were thoroughly trained by their handlers/managers on how to win the hearts and minds of the "masses." They were SCHOOLED by their top notch PR reps on how to act and what to say, while being interviewed. Just like Pandora, Flans, Fandango, Garibaldi, etc., all surrounded by the best PR firms/talent agencies from Mexico City. (Mexico City is a magnet for all of the talent coaches etc. from all over Latin America, mainly Argentina).
      MEXICO IS VERY FORMAL, like you said. The US today is definitely NOT.
      Unfortunately, these Chicano kids were clueless. They obviously had NO knowledge/guidance on how to speak to the "farandula chilanga"/Mexican media.

    I grew up in and around Barrio Logan in San Diego, born to a LARGE Mexican family on my mothers side. I'm second generation Mexican and 4th generation Irish on my fathers side. I'll admit I got a little bit triggered when you guys were talking about that fight in 1996, flooded by so many memories...that word, pocha... still hurts. All my life I was never fully accepted in the neighborhoods. I looked too much like my father, white. I think all the comments I received as a young, sensitive, girl growing up made me feel like I'd never fit in anywhere. I still feel that way. I wonder if that's part of why I worked really hard to perfect my Spanish...And people are always shocked it's so good, like because of my face I shouldn't speak it without an accent. You can't win. It was very strange too being all at once told I needed to hold strong to my roots, speak Spanish without and accent, then being praised for my fairness and watching my mother bleach her skin and hair doing her very best impression of Kelly Bundy

Si solo queremos respuestas que nos agraden o que sean completamente positivas, ¿cuál es el propósito de pedir opiniones? Es natural que cada persona tenga sus propias experiencias y percepciones, y eso no significa que no aprecien la cultura o el país. Criticarlos por simplemente expresar su sentir muestra una falta de madurez de parte del público. Si no estamos preparados para escuchar respuestas sinceras, mejor no deberíamos hacer la pregunta.

    I found the memes, the bullying, the racism and especially the death threats, downright frightening. I’m Mexican American with immigrant parents and had been considering retiring there, close to where I have family, but my youngest, who is 19, is on the spectrum and is picky with food and also gay and darker skinned than I am. She doesn’t have much of a filter when she says things because of her autism, and I’ve raised her with way more compassion and patience than what my siblings and I were raised with. I can completely see her saying she prefers chicken wings (which she does) and can’t eat chile, just like one of Yahritza’s brother’s did.
    This whole situation has made me think that I am better off staying in the US closer to the family that I have here, rather than trying to change a culture that will possibly bully her for who she is. I’m also taking her to see Yahritza live in Texas in October and have already introduced her to her music. Thank you for your video and the discussion. Blessings.

I've gotten some hateful comments from people calling me a "white wash b****," "foreign invader." etc. I hate when people categorize you as "real mexican" or "fake mexican." Makes no sense. Regarding Yahritza and Su Esencia's remarks, I blame lack of media training, as you said.

    Good topic for you guys! I've been getting annoyed at the memes too. It's clear that for a lot of people, if you're dark skinned, you should know your place and that means not speaking English or eating what you like apparently.

    Yo nací y crecí en mexico, y soy mexicano que después emigré, creo que los que nacen en EEUU como ustedes también son mexicanos, a veces más que muchos que nacen en mexico, ósea somos mexicanos aunque tengamos una segunda o primera nacionalidad diferente, así deberíamos vernos, creo

    This is an interesting topic and is very common all over the world. There are millions of Turkish-Germans, for example, who say the same thing: in Germany they are considered Turks, in Turkey they are (negatively) seen as Germans.
    I had the positive experience when I immigrated to the US, I was 30 years old, to be accepted as an American in the US. Probably, because the US always has been a country of immigrants. In my home country, though, my former neighbors called me a traitor.
    Mexicans, as I noticed, are fiercly patriotic, I would say even much more than Americans. So I am not surprised that this incident here created a shitstorm. I called a good friend of mine, who was born in Mexico and grew up and lives in the US, very brave, when she went to an US-Mexico soccer game and proudly waved the US flag. That is the experience of normal people who happen to be "at home" in two countries.
    Now, when it comes to "public people," like this band, things get way more complicated. What could be seen as innocent comments on food and urban environment in Mexico City became scandalous. As Jenny said, they obviously lack any media experience. Unfortunately, what you can say privately is not always fit for public statements. That may be sad, but it is a fact. If you want to be a celebrity, you need to be aware of these things. I think their comments were pretty stupid and now they receive the reward.
    And yes, that all shows the shallowness of the "internet generation." The same people criticizing this band probably will stand in line in CDMX for Starbucks and McDo and not even think about it. Welcome to the "you tube world."

      well said, amigo! Did you immigrate to the US from a European country? I'm glad you were accepted as an immigrant. I wish that same sense of welcome was common for immigrants from non-European countries 😏

      @@EatBailaTravel Yes, I came from Western Europe. But actually, most legal immigrants in the US nowadays come from Asia, Europe contributes only a relatively small number. But I am grateful to be here - and as you know, now am thinking of retiring in Mexico :D

    I really like their music. I’m glad they are out there performing ❤ They actually got me listening to that genre of music. I don’t mind them being honest.
    I’ve eaten so many meals that I dislike, out of being polite. 😁❤️

    The one guys who said she was delicate and eats only chicken wings (no shade) but he came across as maybe autistic tbh. I have lots of experience with that population. It’s disappointing when people are like that but try not being offended. I also just assumed the guy who prefers his Washington food is probably just preferring his moms cooking I’m guessing. It’s beyond ridiculous and sad when people don’t realize what good culture is. Not liking sirens sounds also just provincial. Any major city is noisy. In my hotel at night I heard several ambulances in Tokyo but it didn’t take away anything from my experience. If you want silence in a major metropolitan area use earplugs 😂
