    I'm glad you made a video about my (real) great uncle. Unfortunately, he died before I was even born. Every once in a while, my tribe has meetups. Harry Fonseca will be remembered forever...

    I meant to mention this in a previous video, but I love the Gilcrease Museum's logo. If I ever need one or some kind of family crest, it has to be at least that cool.
    I'm guilty as charged (regarding being an American with no clue about indigenous cultures). This playlist has helped me learn a lot more. I didn't know about "Castro Clones" either, but I like the way he satirized ignorant stereotypes in a quirky, mildly provocative way.
    Seeing the cayote perform his various roles reminds me of one of the desktop themes I have on my computer: "The Adventures of Ninja Cat." I wonder if that artist drew inspiration from Fonseca.

      Yep and there are many examples that would predate it. Doesn’t negate it as a work of art. Just a matter of how social attitudes shift and a viewer’s preference.
