  • Salsa arrived in New York in the 1940s and 1950s and soon spread to Latin parties and clubs throughout the city. The genre bloomed in the 1970s with the emergence of Fania Records, the first label to promote New York-style salsa, a version of salsa that embraced the many Latin cultures that called New York home. “On any given day or night, it is the living heart of the city,” Leguizamo says.

    I was born in 1955 in Manhattan and I grew up in El Barrio de Harlem. I grew up listening to Salsa and the Fania All Stars. El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico was one of my favorite artists. Those were happy times as a teenager in Spanish Harlem. When I grew up, Spanish Harlem was mostly Puerto Ricans. We didn't have Mexicans, Salvadorans, and other Central & South Americans. I had never heard of El Salvador. I don't consider myself Latino or Hispanic. I refer to myself as a Nuyorican of Puerto Rican ancestry. Boricua all day and every day! I currently live on the upper westside in Manhattan. As an Afro Boricua, I cannot relate to Mexicans, Salvadorans, etc. If you Black and speak Spanish, these groups look at you as if you're from another planet. Then they will assume because you're Black, you must be Dominican or Panamanian. 🤣

      Salsa music, just like culinary salsa, is a mixture of a bunch of separate flavors that are put together, separately unified. Unity via diversity. Salsa music is inclusive. It is the umbrella. It includes son, bachata, rumba, mambo, reggaeton, merengue, cumbia, and many more. If its rhythmic origins are in African percussion, it’s salsa.

    Wayne Robert La Pierre is the CEO of the NRA. His function at that organization is to instigate and supervise the political reprimand of any congressional member that shows by hint or actual verbage digression from the platform of complete opposition to gun restrictions. He is proficient and successful at what he does. Imagine being able to scare the bejeebers out of a gaggle of smartly dressed, and presumned educated men and women. Furthermore not simply are they frightened, but also pliant and cowardly following his command not to support gun control. Chrildren die and he commands that congressional bowl of jelly.

    The division in America started with Obama. Rush Limbaugh was right: "“If Obama gets elected president, wouldn’t it be good to just get this done, Rush, then we could end those civil rights squabbles that we’re having?” It wouldn’t do that, folks, it wouldn’t do that. It might even exacerbate them." Rush is always Right. RIP.

      Yes, Limbaugh correctly predicted the ignorant and hatefilled behavior of America's white supremacist population, who he aligned himself with in every word he spoke.
      Then trump capitolized on that hate to get himself elected.
      Ultimately revealing just how racist and criminal the republican party actually is.
