I believe keeping your culture alive in the U.S is so important like keeping your roots alive because I believe the U.S is meant to be a mix of all our cultures a place where they can be accepted and celebrated although it's clearly not the case just yet we are slowly getting there and that starts wth keeping our culture alive.
My mom taught me Spanish, in my elementary school, there was two classes for children who are Hispanic, they taught us English and Spanish, it was wonderful 👍
Carmen Miranda isn't hispanic , she is luso. she was from Marco de Canaveses ,Portugal but she grew up in Rio , Brazil. Brazil and Portugal aren't hispanic countries.
Hispanic are here to stay and our traditions and language are part of us. We are not here to harm anyone we are here to work and become productive citizens. Why don't you get to know us instead of being overcomed by fear. We are happy people family orientated and will help someone in need. This is a small world and life doesn't last long. Even though we might not travel the world but when you meet someone one from another country and they open up to you about who they are you just did.
People are overcome by fear of Hispanics because they don't want to lose who they are. These people like being Americans and speaking English. They are not going anywhere. Why is that Americans have to know Spanish to get a job and everything else when their own public school does not teach them Spanish but very young Hispanics learn English. What "crime" did they deserve for all this? It makes no sense. But for some reason Hispanics are just starting to ask questions.
Elizabeth Wohlford sorry but look it up, don't confuse national with official, official is by government national is by a "whole" like the well idk how to explain it but you get me right?
@@elizabethwohlford9615 then say latin american cultura in the USA, not "hispanic", she was Portuguese/Brazillian. But there was always a debate if Portugal/Brazil is "hispanic", in the old days, yes. Hispanic comes from the term for the Iberia Peninsula by the Romans "Hispania". Spain is supossed to be the sucessor of the "Hispania" but not the same, while Portugal became a seperate thing, but today is mostly called for people who comes from Spain or spanish speaking countries. So in the modern term, Carmen doesnt fit.
What the problem with Muricans? Carmen Miranda is not Hispanic! And I think it's funny, this muricans with ancestors from a countries that speaks Spanish think they're from there. They will never know the nuances of what it is like to live in these countries.
English is and should be considered the first language to learn in the US but learning Spanish is extremely practical skill and should be encouraged for all children regardless of whether they have hispanic origins or not.
Why Spanish? Did the old school immigrants had their languages held in the same prestige with English. These languages disappeared after the third generation.
@@SuperRip7 Today's young people want to learn a new language either as a hobby, because they have a Hispanic relative or they like Latin music, everyone is forced to learn English young Americans also want to be bilingual, just like foreigners, and what better than Spanish, since it is the second most widely spoken language in the United States, and it is also very easy, since it is a European language and derived from Latin.
não desmerecendo meus irmão de idioma espanhol por sinal lindo idioma mais Brasil não hispano e latino ou luso americano e claro samos irmãos todos mais espanhol y português apesar de ser idiomas irmãos não o mesmo
FOR THE RECORD: The first Americans and first Europeans/Asians or Eurasians to the American continent (all of the Americas), were actually the Russians, the came from Siberia and Siberia is in Russia, millions of years ago.. So the Spanish were not the first Europeans in the Americas.
the first language spoken and extended in the American continent was Spanish, ok even if it hurts you to know it, Spanish marked a before and after in the Estados Unidos 🇺🇸
Why do you say "Hispanic" when do you mean "Spanish" ? Please, do not mix Hispanic from southamerica and real SPANISHS from SPAIN. The whole hispanic culture in USA nowadays stems from their Spanish ancestors.
@@nooneknows9234 The majority of Spaniards have Arab roots and in Latin America there is cultural diversity: Amerindians, Afro-Latinos, Caucasians, Mongrels people, in short, a little bit.
I think the video is unfairly judgmental. Why should the US be influenced by the Hispanics, while they shouldn't be influenced by the culture of the country they live in? That makes no sense to me, really. Their "losing" some of "their culture" is a good thing, because that means they are assimilating to the US culture, and the US is the US, it is not Latin America and it shouldn't be if they don't want to. If they want to fully engage in their countries' culture, maybe they shouldn't have left their home countries. It is only polite and common sense to try to adapt and assimilate when you emigrate.
Hispanic and US culture should not be viewed as separate. USA culture is just an assimilation of the many cultures throughout the world including hispanic. Therefore hispanic culture should be viewed as just another part of US culture. And there is also nothing wrong with Hispanics adopting the mix that is US culture.
Jose Torres You can build the wall all you want but in all fairness it's too late the Latinos are taking over and by 2050 the Latinos will be the majority so good luck with that
The reason why many Latinos migrate to the USA is because we held on to a oppressive sell out our people leadership that's deeply rooted in Catholicism and Spanish rule. Hopefully Mexican president Nieto got a Commodore Mathew Perry style wakeup call that Japan got 164 yrs ago when Trump threatened his country just shortly after being sworn in. Start fucking educating your people, Lose the fucking respect by sweat and being tough and violent machismo culture. Nobody worldwide respects us for picking fruit and cleaning hotels. You gain respect by manufacturing (Toyota, Boeing, Microsoft, Apple, Merck, GE, BMW, Phizer, Bayer, Samsung), good high tech products. You don't want to spend money on a worldclass public K-12 & public university system like the US & Europe.
Poor California, on the way to becoming the first third world state and so will the other states, while the Latino population grows, the United States in 2050 will already be a third world country because of the social and economic mentality of Latinos, If not Because all the Latin American countries are underdeveloped countries, except Chile and Brazil, (God Bless America) 🇺🇸
