In the old days when you talked about ethnicity in California, it was about black and white. Now it is about Armenians, Vietnamese, Hmong, Peruvians, Koreans, Mexicans and Mexicans and Mexicans...
REN: It's true.. I was there in August and it does seem like one is living in a foreign land.. however, having been raised all over the world, I appreciate other cultures.... my only problem is with lack of any attempt, on some of their parts, to not learn the language. Though I also have no problem with bi-lingualism. What I so admire about the Europeans and others is their embrace of multi-lingualism. I also have trouble with certain 'elements' expecting us to conform to their culture/ideology rather than the converse.
Adrian Villarreal and his troupe are very funny and awesome people. I have met them and must say they are extremely talented. We will be seeing a lot more of them soon. I guarantee it.
