When I Hear That Jennifer Lopez Is Such A Role Model For Latinas, On The One Hand I Respect Her For Her Business Sense And I Respect Her For Her Ambition. But She's In The Entertainment World. She's Done It On Her Looks And Very Specifically On Her Anatomy. Madonna Is Also Considered A Great Businesswoman And So Is Yoko Ono. I Feel If I Had A Young Daughter Right Now, I Would Feel A Little Discouraged If That Was My Daughter's Primary Role Model For Success And For Young People, For Latinas And Latinos.

The Diverse Cultures Already On The American Shores When The Europeans Arrived, As Well As Those Introduced Because Of The African Slave Trade, Are Completely Obliterated By The Term. Hispanic Is Nothing More Than A Concession Made By The U. S. Legislature When They Saw They Couldn't Get Rid Of Us. If We Won't Go Away, Why Not At Least Europeanize Us, Make Us Presentable Guests At The Dinner Table, Take Away Our Feathers And Rattles And Civilize Us Once And For All.
