Overview

QUERIDO MEXICANO:

¿QUÉ ES PREGÚNTALE AL MEXICANO!?


Son preguntas y respuestas sobre los americanos más picosos. En ellas exploro los clichés de los autos achaparrados, los ayudantes de cocina y las amas de llave; borrachos y maleantes; héroes y celebridades; y, lo más importante, millones de millones de ciudadanos americanos, patriotas y respetuosos de la ley, y sus primos inmigrantes ilegales, que representan unos $600 billones de potencial económico.

¿HAY ALGUNA BUENA RAZÓN PARA LEER PREGÚNTALE AL MEXICANO!?

Contabilizados en 37 millones (o 13 por ciento de la población de los Estados Unidos), los latinos se han convertido en la minoría más grande del país, y los frijoleros representan unos dos tercios de esa cifra. Aquí me enfrento con el coco del racismo, la xenofobia y la ignorancia que tales cambios demográficos han suscitado, a través de las respuestas que doy a las preguntas de los lectores de Pregúntale al mexicano!, columna del OC Weekly de California. Te reto a que encuentres una forma más amena de sumergirte en la cultura mexicana, sin pasar por el combo taco-enchilada.

ESTÁ BIEN. ¿POR QUÉ LOS MEXICANOS ESTACIONAN SUS COCHES EN LOS PRADOS AL FRENTE DE LAS CASAS?

¿Y dónde quieres que lo hagamos? ¿En el garage que rentamos para una familia de cinco? ¿En el patio trasero, donde instalamos a nuestros primos recién llegados en casas-cobertizos de herramientas? ¿En la calle, con sus banquetas pintadas de rojo recientemente aprobadas por los planificadores urbanos?¿En la entrada de coches, donde colocamos los materiales de construcción para la próxima ampliación de la casa? ¿En el estacionamiento de la escuela cercana que frecuentan los cholos al acecho de un nuevo radio? El prado es el único sitio donde los mexicanos pueden estacionar sus coches sin temor a cristalazos, choques de borrachos o a desafortunadas raspaduras por llave. Además, ¿quién supones que nos pueda proteger de los tiroteos? ¿la policía?

¿QUIÉN ES EL MEXICANO?
