and learn about love ? That is sad for her

I wonder if she ever goes beyond the perpetuating stereotype look that is so cartoonish in the video to look at all of chicano culture.
But she is not unique in doing this kind of thing to find something maybe that they think is missing in thier own culture .
Plenty in the US enough to earn a nickname or become famous

I remember Japanese black subculture had an outside baclklash years back when blackface was being used as part of the Japanese appreciative look.
