Given that Twitter will be very busy tonight when Jorge Ramos chats immigration with Mamiverse, Latino Rebels, and iHispano, I am feeling a bit selfish right now.

In 1898, the United States defeated Spain in the Spanish-Cuban-American War. The then-Spanish colonies of the Philippines, Guam, and Puerto Rico were ceded to the United States as part of the Treaty of Paris of 1898 between Spain and the United States. 115 years later, Puerto Rico is still a colonial territory of the United […]

Stop and think about this for a minute. The end of WAPA TV’s “SuperXclusivo” show began on December 4, 2012, when comments about the brutal death of publicist José Enrique Gómez made by co-hosts Kobbo Santarrosa (the actor who played the “La Comay” puppet) and Héctor Travieso spurned a social media movement that led to show’s […]

Here is a story posted today from our friends at One Voice Radio. Is this a joke? A very sick one at that.

We get it. If you are going to be racist against Mexicans, you do the following: become part of a safe-sounding Center for Immigration Studies “think tank” that gets funding from the Department of Justice and the US Census, and pretend that your opinions have merit and value. Such is the case of Stephen Steinlight, […]

After we posted a news story from local Colorado TV about a gas station that was caught selling an “Illegal Immigrant Hunting Permit” sticker, we wanted to reach out the the company that distributes the product.

So Timothy Den of the “Chicago-via-Miami band” Ohvaur reached out to us this week to share the news of his band’s latest album, “A Memories Chase.” We are thrilled that he did, since we were not only fortunate to listen to three of the album’s tracks (see below), but we also found out something very […]

Just when you think the anti-immigrant (code word: anti-Latino) racism will go away, it doesn’t. Case in point, the following report from Colorado’s 9News.com, called “‘Illegal Immigrant Hunting Permit’ sticker sold at gas stations.” Yeah, you heard that right. (FYI: Last year a similar sticker was sold in a Wisconsin store.) UPDATE: The company in question and mentioned […]

Talk about taking the fight right to the core. The following video (and its different variations and sources) has gone viral on the Internet.

You’re all illegal,” […]

If Ram Trucks won’t show you more of the farmers God made, let Isaac Cubillos respond. Here’s to America’s farmers. And our friends at Cuéntame also posted theirs.

This is awkward. Earlier this morning, Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald tweeted out the following pic: He also posted it on his Facebook page, where the conversation got heated. For a second, we had to do a double take? Is that Edward James Olmos, the legend himself, sitting next to Arizona Governor Jan Brewer? […]

One of the most talked-about commercials from tonight’s Super Bowl is Ram Trucks’ “God Made a Farmer” ad, which celebrates American farming as the late conservative personality Paul Harvey delivers a 1978 speech he gave at the Future Farmers of America convention.
