Last time I went to Japan I ran into a group of these people. Nothing but respect for our culture and our people. I spent almost that whole day teaching them some Spanish and some stuff about Chicano culture. I ain't mad about them doing this, if anything its an honor with how respectful they are.
@@MexicanSamurai100 Its only fair too. Many people are interested in Japanese culture that meeting people that have in interest in my culture in Japan is something I'm always excited about. I've never been ashamed of my heritage and I'm more than glad to inform people interested how Chicano culture is
I'm Chicano. East Los. Great points. Being Chicano is the way you think and the way you live your life. Being Chicano is to be able to be proud of both cultures. Switching from English to Spanish in the same sentence. Enjoying the best of both worlds. Experiencing the culture, food, raza, familia, barbecues, Church, working hard, struggle, never giving up. Chicanismo is keeping your word, helping others and never forgetting where you came from. I Enjoy all your videos. Keep them coming. Thanks
Nice vid, makes me think of the kids here in Texas who walk around acting and dressing like they are Mexican rancheros listening to narco corridos while me and my parents fled Mexico to escape the FN narco violence. I get it though, to them it's a foreign concept and it peeks their interest but sadly take no time to realize that the narcos they idolize in narco corridos Is the the reason their parents left their home country.
But Chicano culture isn't all crime dude. Read up on the history of Mecha and the Raza Unida Party. The Chicano slang is actually CALO and it was built on adding more Nahuatl /otomi influence on it. Go listen to CAFE TACUBAS chilanga banda . Orale, Qvole, Chota , are Calo terms from Nahuatl(Aztec). Funny that when Maya***s jocked our style,lowridrs and lingo in the 90s , the g ingos glorified them but with us they ridiculed us. Anything that is positive for Mexicans like Cafe Tacuba, Art and Agriculture they ignore and dont say shi*, but when its to do with negative stuff like Narcos then they love to bring out about us. is their hipocriticale evangelical( thee elect) nature. It's only been until recently with hipsters in LA that our Chicano Art and food got appreciated. So no, I can't compare Chicano Culture to Narco culture. Yes there was some dumb stuff that is in Chicano culture like the violence and pinta bs , but all sub cultures have this too.. if you thikn about it. Wall Street Culture ( Wolf of Wall Street LARPS) have criminals.. .BERNIE MAYDOFF who ran away with your parents 401 K money and they don't say shi*. Neo Con culture, had criminals like Kissinger who caused wars in Chile , and they don't say shi*.
all facts bro! I hate going to high school with those types of chicanos who only do it because it’s trendy, cool, and gets the attention of Mexican girls. They don’t even realize that the people they are listening to are ruining the country their people are from.
It's definitely appropriation through the lens of western media (stereotypes). Nonetheless, the folks that genuinely want to know more and are that respecting the culture and their differences are in return appreciating the culture. I haven't seen your videos in a while man but I'm glad this popped up on my feed!
I viewed the same documentary and had same reaction when Japanese girl getting a "Pinche Loca" tattoo, I was like, WTF? hahah. I do appreciate how Japanese people see and mimic our culture and lifestyle. I was LMAO on "burrito night." Seemed like a preheated bean burrito from 7-11! hahah
Respect. I was working in shepherdsville Kentucky an my co worker beau. He is Japanese Hawaiin which he hung out with the Mexicano kids in high school which they protected him. He eats Tripas and menudo. Tripped out. I grew up in Downey California1970 in all white neighborhood which in elementary school I had two friends Calvin Chung and Steve Kawasaki. We were the boys which Steve Kawasaki was picked on and I was expelled from school. The next day. Steve’s and Mom. Took me Norwalk Japanese American center. I learned judo and kendo. Thank you. Calvin Chung His family owned several Chinese restaurants which I saw fusion Mexicano, Chinese and Japanese food before its popular. My experience with the Japanese American community saved me from gangs. I became a reading nerd and math nerd. Thank you Steve and Norwalk Ca. Japanese American community center. Downey ca. Ps. I would always be sent home for speaking spanish. Today, I have korean, Chinese and Japanese friends from South America and they all speak Spanish. Ps. Selena Netflex 2020. Cobra Kai. Netflex session 3. Downey California 🇲🇽🇯🇵🇺🇸🏄🏾♂️🌊
Hi, Tino, I live in central California, where I see some people embrace the Japanese culture. They learn the language in high school, learn how to cook home-made Japanese food and visit Japan. When they return to Cali, they remodel their entire home inside and out to look like a "typical" Japanese house with a Japanese garden, tatami flooring, restroom with a bidet and a deep bathtub. They know more Japanese than I do and I'm full-blooded. Whoo!
I think the mutual respect is something we all need to be able to see first and foremost before passing judgement...know what I mean? I thought it was strange AF seeing so many people just change everything about themselves when I first came out here... and I remember just getting angry at times. "What the heck have you people done with your true identities!?" But as time went on... I was able to see the love and respect they had for other cultures and it became something totally different. Now I understand.
I loved the perspective, many times we are to quick to judge people. When ever I see Japanese people dancing salsa it always brings a smile to me cause I know it comes from the heart. We are all looking to enrich ourselves; my dream one day is to come to Japan and learn about it's culture, history and it's people.Great video MexicanSamurai100!
Man great video being Mexican and growing up Mexican american i can truly say thats not stealing BUT they do need to find what being chicano really means, Its like America stealing Japanese Culture and eating and driving and trying to act you know Anime
So true, bro... I love telling them Chicano stories, so I will continue to educate and talk about it until they stop listening to me. :) Hey... So is it a bug or a Porsche? What do you think? :)
This is educating me on chicano. Im mexican but spent more time with whites and blacks growing up. So i got a faint understanding of it. Maybe you should do a series on chicano culture. Appreciate you Tino.
Tino it would be cool to share a beer and a carne asada, i grew up in ELA and could probably share many stories of what it was like growing up Mexican in ELA back in the 60s and 70s and how very different it is now.
as a Mexican, Chicano i Approve all Asian Country's, Japanese, Embracing our Culture! thank you,Brothers,and sister. cholos and cholas from a Mexican Chicano in Los Angeles! A Mexican.Chicano is born where he gives his chingada Gana! un mexican, Chicano nace donde le da su chingada gana!
Education education education. This video done the same for me, because I really don't know much about Chicano culture. What little I do know is that every single Chicano I have met here and in the USA have been honest and hard working people. Direct, too! I do think it's a little sad that if all these young people have is movies and stereotypes to go on, they need more opportunities to expand their view.
Amen to that, brother. It's not as bad as it used to be, but there are still those who don't know. And I pride myself on being an ambassador for not only my own culture, but those of others in the states as well. Thanks always, bro.
Right on homie holding it down on the other side. Real talk. Thanks clarifying to those that don’t know the nuances and differences Chicano.... cholo..... etc. I can’t hate on others digging foreign cultures and concepts. So I don’t want to be preachy to them. When I grew up outside the neighborhoods, born and raised Downtown, it was not always looked at as a cool thing and sometimes looked down upon. Inside the neighborhood we did not ask for permission or solicit input from outsiders. The culture has deep root and some of that style came wirh pain. For example, old Pachucos back in the day were hunted down at times. there can be lot of deep meaning behind wirh this. For some it really cost. So as long as it’s treated with respect I don’t personally have a problem and am actually taken back by it.
They the homies, when they showed the clip where they were eating tacos and burritos on the table it look just like east LA exactly like it. If I ever make a trip to Japan ima stop by for sure. Show some love
It's everyone's job to spread the truth about their culture, so that the people in love with it, understand it better, and hopefully develop an even stronger appreciation for it. I would hope that the Japanese traveling abroad would teach their new friends who love Japan in other countries, about true Japanese culture. It's not all anime and J-pop, and it's not all bushido and sushi. It's sad though, because a lot of the teenagers in Japan don't understand their own culture, because they are so busy trying to imitate other cultures... But yeah, I think they really are trying to understand what it is to be Chicano, and given the correct information from you and others, they will appreciate it even more.
So true, brother. One of the first things I let my students and their parents know is... English is a tool that they are going to use to share their culture with the world. Getting from others is easy... It's almost effortless in a way. You just sit in a chosen environment and just soak everything up. I think the most difficult thing about teaching here is letting my students know that they got to put in work in order for this global thing to work. Thanks always, brother.
Nothing wrong about loving or wanting to learn about a foreign culture. In the same way Japanese culture is what it is because of their admiration towards ancient Chinese culture, Chicanos are a great mixture of northern Mexican, Native western-american and American? (call it Anglo-saxon, etc.) cultures. In the same way you are a Mexican Samurai, they want to be (and CAN be) Samurai-chinanos. Who knows if in a few years time, they will give birth to a culture that will help unite Mexico and Japan in a way nobody could have ever imagined? I'm always try to be optimistic about any of these cultural trends. ¡Saludos Tino desde Fukuoka!
Love the comment, brother. One thing I've learnt from life on this island is... we are all clear. Transparent. All we got is what we have in our hearts... and whatever we believe ourselves to be... that is what we are. That look that some look for hide that doesn't work for very long. Japanese will always be Japanese. They are really good at that. And it's pretty hard to hide. When all this is over... Let's get some food. I'll go up there...or you're always welcome down here.
I wonder, as a Chicano. Do you think they would glamorize it if they knew the struggle we have to succeed, the pressure we have to succeed since our parents our immigrants? The struggle with gangs giving people a strange sense of comfort? The racism by our own people because some don’t know Spanish or how some are not fully accepted by Mexican cultures but still not treated like Americans because we still look “brown”? We should inform them on everything. It’s not just low riders, tattoos, and bandanas, that’s why it’s called culture. There is generations of struggle, there are customs, things we as a people relate to. They could try to relate, if they find our culture fascinating so be it. As long as they are respectful.
I agree. I think its comin from a place of love, and just a general interest for it. No malice intended. I hope they get a chance to visit the real thing in america, go down crenshaw and stuff like that.
Great video. What's your opinion on Japanese trap music? Specifically rappers who try to emulate the whole gangsta lifestyle from the West. There's a rapper named Kowichi and in his music video (Day ones) they are double cupping but drinking alcohol. Double cupping is associated with lean and not alcohol.
I think its fantastic.where they understand it or not .its not stealing its love. And hell look at how many ppl took the asian culture that are not asians.
And don’t nobody thing anything if it until it’s that one dude who looks at it and says...”bro. Did you know you got bear rake tatted on your neck?” Same same, homie. Now... I try not to be that dude anymore. 😊 Thanks for sharing, fam😊👍🏽
The difference isbthat they aint white and they aont doing it to offend anyone. They are appreciating the cuture. And they seem very happy. Make me want to go to japan aleven more and meet them.
I understand if they want to imitate or resemble Chicano custom and culture but they should keep in touch with what they are wearing and shouldn't use it as a costume
So true... but if it weren't for UA-cam... who'd know, right? It's still funny to me, though. The girls look hot... The dudes look like busters, though. If they only knew.
❤❤ 2012 to 2020. Working Midwest Chicano Mexicano American culture is not out there which my white and black brothers also love Chicano culture . Breaking sterotypes.. keep it real.
Good video on this subject! It’s crazy to know people are doing this. I mean, I’m flattered but you’re right, it’s not completely correct. Maybe try making a video in Japanese for viewers in Japan so they can learn. It’s a start right?!
Exactly. I've done that video for Japanese people here... But a lot of them saw it as me saying... Don't do it. and that wasn't the case. It's much better when I talk directly to them. I'll keep doing that. Thanks for the comment. You good over there?
MexicanSamurai100 Oh, well I understand. It’s always better understood when people can hear you explain with the tone in your voice and the words you choose to use. Whatever works better eh? I’m good over here in Texas. Do you remember who I am? I don’t comment too much on UA-cam. Just enjoy the content. I’ve been growing a lot of vegetables and herbs, with some fruit. Trying to keep myself busy. How are you guys over there?
As long as they do not get names of Mexican or Salvadorian American Street Gangs tattooed on their bodies and think it would be a good idea to go and "represent" in the United States. If you see one of these misinformed foreigners with such gang logos on their bodies, please inform them the actual dangers and consequences for such actions.
You know what I think ??? This guy needs to go to Japan and meet a fine women from that video ....for culture exchange of course. ;D man my notifications didn't pop up sorry for late commenting good stuff
I seen that in Yokohama... I was like wtf ... I think they where kinda disappointed when i said I'm. Chicano but im not into the lowriders and cholo look ... I'm into all the JDM CARS and skylines and 240 Silvias 86 Toyota's lol and i don't the kawai girls to lol
2023...What these two sentences mean, is that if you, are Japanese, and feel like a Mexican, Chicano. We Embrace you, as a brother, you, now have two Citizenships!! Japanese and Mexican, Chicano!! A Mexican. Chicano is born where he gives his chingada Gana! un Mexican, Chicano nace donde le da su chingada gana!
Wait, I remember in LA. There were cholos who were born in MEXICO. And Cholos born in the USA, in the same gangs. Some kids were brought over from Mexico very young and blended with the Mexican kids born here. It's weird to me how they say Chicano culture is for Mexican American, when in reality it was a mix of both. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Not wrong...but it's a way for Mexicans born in the states to have a better connection with self... Something that we can grab on to and call our own so to speak. Chicano ain't cholo, tho... It's more of having a connection to the identity of what it is to be Mexican American.
@@MexicanSamurai100 Yes Chicano is not cholo, sorry about that comment. Let me explain it differently. There are some Mexicans like myself that fall in the middle. I was brought to the USA at 6 years old. My neighborhood was both born in the USA and Mexico. But I grew up Chicano. I became Americanized, pretty much Mexican American. It's weird but there are some Mexicans that fall in that category. Hard for me to explain sometimes. I can talk and blend with paisas and also Chicanos 🤷🏾. Hybrid 😂

Chicano culture can only be summed up by Lord Cuauhtemoc’s mandate .. CUAUHTEMOC’S MANDATE Our beloved sun has disappeared and has left us in total darkness. But we know that it will again return, will again come out and will come anew to shine upon us. But while it stays there in Miktlan (region of eternal repose.) We should rapidly gather and embrace ourselves. And in the center of our heart we will hide all that which our heart appreciates and considers a treasure. And we know like a great jade we will destroy our Teokalwanzintli (houses of youth), our Kalmekawanzintli (Universities), our tlachkowanzintli (ball courts), our telpochkalwanzintli (houses of young men), and our kwikakalwanzintli (houses of song.) That our roads may remain deserted and that our homes may preserve us. For now we do not know until when our new sun will come out. That the fathers and the mothers may never forget to teach their children. The fathers with the boys, the mothers with the girls. And that they teach their children while they live precisely how good has been that which has been until today. Our beloved Anawak! The refuge, the protection and the care of our energies. And as a result of our customs and the behavior that our venerable elders received and our venerable parents with effort sowed in our essence. Now we deliver the task to our children that they guard our writings and our knowledge. From now on our homes will be our teokalwanzintli, our Kalmekawanzintli, our Tlachkowanzintli, our telpochkalwanzintli, our kwikalwanzintli. And do not forget to inform our children intensely how it will be. How we will rise! And exactly how its destiny will be realized and how it will fulfill its grand destiny. Our beloved motherland Anawak
Be aware…, stick to the teachings of those before us, pass on knowledge and be accountable…make it essential that our young ones ready themselves to pass on the teachings they are receiving now with the same conviction in their hearts. Yes. 🙏🏽 Thanks, bro💯
You can’t be Mexican samurai… but japanese will honor your desire if you wanted to be seen as such. The japanese see people repping their culture in the USA and they are so appreciative of it even tho over here we hollering appropriation. Which a lot of it really is because it’s not honoring. They aren’t like living in it daily. Just throwing on a kimono or watching anime or getting a kanji tat… these people are really immersed in their limited understanding of Chicano culture. lol there could be arguments made that what you have on your back wall is cultural appropriation. I look at it as appreciation. If most of the actions are honoring the culture and it better your life for it… can we call that a bad thing? One japanese girl in the chicano scene said that chicano culture taught her to respect and honor her family even more. I think a group of OG and young chicanos should start an online group with the japanese in the Chicano scene and become friends like penpals. Educate them and maybe one day they visit Japan and vice versa. That would be the most wholesome amazing documentary and I would watch the hell outta it! May the spirit of Chicano and culture live forever.

Yeah, bro... It's important to choose wisely. They put themselves in danger doing stuff like that.
But Chicano culture isn't all crime dude. Read up on the history of Mecha and the Raza Unida Party. The Chicano slang is actually CALO and it was built on adding more Nahuatl /otomi influence on it.

My state of MICHOACAN is a complete mess. Cartel violence has torn the state in half.
all facts bro! I hate going to high school with those types of chicanos who only do it because it’s trendy, cool, and gets the attention of Mexican girls. They don’t even realize that the people they are listening to are ruining the country their people are from.

Hi, Tino, I live in central California, where I see some people embrace the Japanese culture. They learn the language in high school, learn how to cook home-made Japanese food and visit Japan. When they return to Cali, they remodel their entire home inside and out to look like a "typical" Japanese house with a Japanese garden, tatami flooring, restroom with a bidet and a deep bathtub. They know more Japanese than I do and I'm full-blooded. Whoo!

😂lol those facial expressions in the begginning when you were reacting, you were like. "mmm no".
I always look forward to your videos. Honestly, I completely agree with you. It’s hard to explain Chicano culture to someone who didn’t grow up in it.
Man great video being Mexican and growing up Mexican american i can truly say thats not stealing BUT they do need to find what being chicano really means, Its like America stealing Japanese Culture and eating and driving and trying to act you know Anime

So true, brother. One of the first things I let my students and their parents know is... English is a tool that they are going to use to share their culture with the world. Getting from others is easy... It's almost effortless in a way. You just sit in a chosen environment and just soak everything up.
I think the most difficult thing about teaching here is letting my students know that they got to put in work in order for this global thing to work.
Thanks always, brother.
It reminds me of the kids in America using other styles to rebel during their teenage years
Nothing wrong about loving or wanting to learn about a foreign culture. In the same way Japanese culture is what it is because of their admiration towards ancient Chinese culture, Chicanos are a great mixture of northern Mexican, Native western-american and American? (call it Anglo-saxon, etc.) cultures. In the same way you are a Mexican Samurai, they want to be (and CAN be) Samurai-chinanos. Who knows if in a few years time, they will give birth to a culture that will help unite Mexico and Japan in a way nobody could have ever imagined? I'm always try to be optimistic about any of these cultural trends. ¡Saludos Tino desde Fukuoka!
Love the comment, brother.
One thing I've learnt from life on this island is... we are all clear. Transparent. All we got is what we have in our hearts... and whatever we believe ourselves to be... that is what we are.
That look that some look for hide that doesn't work for very long.
Japanese will always be Japanese. They are really good at that. And it's pretty hard to hide.
When all this is over... Let's get some food. I'll go up there...or you're always welcome down here.
I wonder, as a Chicano. Do you think they would glamorize it if they knew the struggle we have to succeed, the pressure we have to succeed since our parents our immigrants? The struggle with gangs giving people a strange sense of comfort? The racism by our own people because some don’t know Spanish or how some are not fully accepted by Mexican cultures but still not treated like Americans because we still look “brown”? We should inform them on everything. It’s not just low riders, tattoos, and bandanas, that’s why it’s called culture. There is generations of struggle, there are customs, things we as a people relate to. They could try to relate, if they find our culture fascinating so be it. As long as they are respectful.
I agree. I think its comin from a place of love, and just a general interest for it. No malice intended. I hope they get a chance to visit the real thing in america, go down crenshaw and stuff like that.
Great video. What's your opinion on Japanese trap music? Specifically rappers who try to emulate the whole gangsta lifestyle from the West. There's a rapper named Kowichi and in his music video (Day ones) they are double cupping but drinking alcohol. Double cupping is associated with lean and not alcohol.
It's comical, bro... Funny AF.
I think its fantastic.where they understand it or not .its not stealing its love.
And hell look at how many ppl took the asian culture that are not asians.
I have pure, love, eternal on my neck in kanji ... individually it's correct but not together... so it's a grammar mistake I guess
And don’t nobody thing anything if it until it’s that one dude who looks at it and says...”bro. Did you know you got bear rake tatted on your neck?”
Same same, homie. Now... I try not to be that dude anymore. 😊
Thanks for sharing, fam😊👍🏽
The difference isbthat they aint white and they aont doing it to offend anyone. They are appreciating the cuture. And they seem very happy. Make me want to go to japan aleven more and meet them.
Love from the west 🇲🇽
Respect. Great new podcast. American cholo. Podcast. And my co worker. Cholo cooking channel podcast. 🇲🇽🇯🇵🇺🇸🏄🏽♂️🌊🌊🌊
I understand if they want to imitate or resemble Chicano custom and culture but they should keep in touch with what they are wearing and shouldn't use it as a costume
So true... but if it weren't for UA-cam... who'd know, right?
It's still funny to me, though. The girls look hot... The dudes look like busters, though. If they only knew.
Ain't nothing wrong with other Razas admiring my cultura. Aztec r cuzns 2d Asians. I'm Cholo 2d mdrfkn bone. I love this ♥️.
True .. n there another one is carnalismo. that's what that guy had from the other guy from prison.. carnalismo to us means more then a brother
Which show are you watching?
Just search Japanese chicano culture and you'l find it.
MexicanSamurai100 is it on UA-cam?
I think its the new york times video called "Inside Japan's chicano culture" or something like that
❤❤ 2012 to 2020. Working Midwest Chicano Mexicano American culture is not out there which my white and black brothers also love Chicano culture . Breaking sterotypes.. keep it real.
Amen😊🤙🏽
Good video on this subject! It’s crazy to know people are doing this. I mean, I’m flattered but you’re right, it’s not completely correct. Maybe try making a video in Japanese for viewers in Japan so they can learn. It’s a start right?!
Exactly. I've done that video for Japanese people here... But a lot of them saw it as me saying... Don't do it. and that wasn't the case. It's much better when I talk directly to them. I'll keep doing that.
Thanks for the comment. You good over there?
MexicanSamurai100 Oh, well I understand. It’s always better understood when people can hear you explain with the tone in your voice and the words you choose to use. Whatever works better eh?
I’m good over here in Texas. Do you remember who I am? I don’t comment too much on UA-cam. Just enjoy the content.
I’ve been growing a lot of vegetables and herbs, with some fruit. Trying to keep myself busy. How are you guys over there?
As long as they do not get names of Mexican or Salvadorian American Street Gangs tattooed on their bodies and think it would be a good idea to go and "represent" in the United States. If you see one of these misinformed foreigners with such gang logos on their bodies, please inform them the actual dangers and consequences for such actions.
Love seeing Raza culture in Japan!
Ewwww
Chicano culture (and even the cholo side) is so rich and distinct, it's only natural for people to be drawn to it. This guero loves it.
Respect. Did you see Netflex yasuke. Black samurai. He did exist in1500. I practice aikido, kendo and iaido.
You know what I think ??? This guy needs to go to Japan and meet a fine women from that video ....for culture exchange of course. ;D man my notifications didn't pop up sorry for late commenting good stuff
I seen that in Yokohama... I was like wtf ... I think they where kinda disappointed when i said I'm. Chicano but im not into the lowriders and cholo look ... I'm into all the JDM CARS and skylines and 240 Silvias 86 Toyota's lol and i don't the kawai girls to lol
2023...What these two sentences mean, is that if you, are Japanese, and feel like a Mexican, Chicano. We Embrace you, as a brother, you, now have two Citizenships!! Japanese and Mexican, Chicano!!
A Mexican. Chicano is born where he gives his chingada Gana!
un Mexican, Chicano nace donde le da su chingada gana!
They ain’t stealing it ! They are embracing it with respect . Stop hating people loving our people .
Exactly!
Wait, I remember in LA. There were cholos who were born in MEXICO. And Cholos born in the USA, in the same gangs. Some kids were brought over from Mexico very young and blended with the Mexican kids born here. It's weird to me how they say Chicano culture is for Mexican American, when in reality it was a mix of both. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Not wrong...but it's a way for Mexicans born in the states to have a better connection with self... Something that we can grab on to and call our own so to speak. Chicano ain't cholo, tho... It's more of having a connection to the identity of what it is to be Mexican American.
@@MexicanSamurai100 Yes Chicano is not cholo, sorry about that comment. Let me explain it differently. There are some Mexicans like myself that fall in the middle. I was brought to the USA at 6 years old. My neighborhood was both born in the USA and Mexico. But I grew up Chicano. I became Americanized, pretty much Mexican American. It's weird but there are some Mexicans that fall in that category. Hard for me to explain sometimes. I can talk and blend with paisas and also Chicanos 🤷🏾. Hybrid 😂

Love it!!

CUAUHTEMOC’S MANDATE
Our beloved sun has disappeared and has left us in total darkness. But we know that it will again return, will again come out and will come anew to shine upon us. But while it stays there in Miktlan (region of eternal repose.) We should rapidly gather and embrace ourselves. And in the center of our heart we will hide all that which our heart appreciates and considers a treasure. And we know like a great jade we will destroy our Teokalwanzintli (houses of youth), our Kalmekawanzintli (Universities), our tlachkowanzintli (ball courts), our telpochkalwanzintli (houses of young men), and our kwikakalwanzintli (houses of song.) That our roads may remain deserted and that our homes may preserve us. For now we do not know until when our new sun will come out. That the fathers and the mothers may never forget to teach their children. The fathers with the boys, the mothers with the girls. And that they teach their children while they live precisely how good has been that which has been until today. Our beloved Anawak! The refuge, the protection and the care of our energies. And as a result of our customs and the behavior that our venerable elders received and our venerable parents with effort sowed in our essence. Now we deliver the task to our children that they guard our writings and our knowledge. From now on our homes will be our teokalwanzintli, our Kalmekawanzintli, our Tlachkowanzintli, our telpochkalwanzintli, our kwikalwanzintli. And do not forget to inform our children intensely how it will be. How we will rise! And exactly how its destiny will be realized and how it will fulfill its grand destiny. Our beloved motherland Anawak
Be aware…, stick to the teachings of those before us, pass on knowledge and be accountable…make it essential that our young ones ready themselves to pass on the teachings they are receiving now with the same conviction in their hearts.
Yes. 🙏🏽
Thanks, bro💯
Ha ha ha como Mona aka sad girl Japanese
They don't have internet to do research?
Also they do the same thing with black culture too man. I get you love black culture, but there's more too it then rap, makeup, long hair etc.
You can’t be Mexican samurai… but japanese will honor your desire if you wanted to be seen as such. The japanese see people repping their culture in the USA and they are so appreciative of it even tho over here we hollering appropriation. Which a lot of it really is because it’s not honoring. They aren’t like living in it daily. Just throwing on a kimono or watching anime or getting a kanji tat… these people are really immersed in their limited understanding of Chicano culture. lol there could be arguments made that what you have on your back wall is cultural appropriation. I look at it as appreciation. If most of the actions are honoring the culture and it better your life for it… can we call that a bad thing? One japanese girl in the chicano scene said that chicano culture taught her to respect and honor her family even more. I think a group of OG and young chicanos should start an online group with the japanese in the Chicano scene and become friends like penpals. Educate them and maybe one day they visit Japan and vice versa. That would be the most wholesome amazing documentary and I would watch the hell outta it! May the spirit of Chicano and culture live forever.
