[@justice_crash2521]

Spanish or Mexican Spanish culture is deeply embedded in the Philippines to the point they no longer align themselves to their pre-colonial indianized roots since the spaniards destroyed the natives culture and replaced it with there own so it’s not a surprise that they easily adapted the cholo culture

[@thee_calamity]

What I like most about this video is that it shows how Filipinos and Mexicans have hundreds of years of history together. It’s a deeper connection than many of us realize. Filipinos don’t just rep the cholo style aesthetically. They were there in the trenches. They shed blood, sweat, and tears, both in their homeland and Los Angeles, CA. This style is very much a part of them.

[@Rocknrollgangsterr]

I'm 26 Filipino American that grew up in Orange County. As a child I used to be bullied by my homies that were all mostly Mexican for being Asian but little do they know lmao. I grew up in a hood in Anaheim with family friends that are also Filipino that gang bang and are sureño. Also being part of a lowrider car club I met more homies and felt more accepted. I speak alittle Spanish but understsnd alot of Spanish and barely any Tagalog. I was raised by single mother and Mexican baby sitter that only spoke Spanish barely any English. All I eat is Filipino and Mexican food. I'm proud to be Filipino and have love for Mexicans. The history behind it is very interesting and I'm grateful.

[@jimbolb1388]

I want to thank you for shedding light on this subject. I’m 54 yrs old and Mexican and Filipino. My Pops (Pino) was in the us navy and moms (Mexican) was from Long Beach Ca. Long story short in Long Beach in 60-70s there were and still are many half Chicano/ Pino Cholos. Most of us had more of a Mexican up ringing simply because most of our fathers were away at sea or stationed far away. I think many of the Filipino sailors that got stationed in places like Long Beach and San Diego felt a natural kinship in these Mexican Varrios. Rather than the suburbs of others. And they were welcomed. I known in our own house being that pops up as always away we gravitate more to the Mexican side of our heritage. And along with that came the Chicano lifestyle. There’s so much we can discuss, cause I have so much I’d like to share and for you to see. Right to the point where I found myself stationed in subic in 1988. A cholo from Long Beach being discriminated against because I wasn’t “really Filipino”..I can laugh at it now. Not to mention I was considered dirty because of my tattoos.😂😂🇵🇭🇲🇽👊🏼💪🏼✌🏼

[@spencers4539]

Being a Chicano was founded on the principles of a Mexican-American born in the US while having parents from Mexico. It also was a struggle being accepted by the Mexican community that came from there and immigrated to the US because they felt that if we had not gone through the rites of passage as they did crossing the border in some way, legally or illegally, we were not "Mexican enough". I'm sure every minority culture in and out of the US experiences the same treatment from their own. I think that it is extremely interesting that this culture was seen in Japan and now in the Philipines. I grew up with a lot of Filipinos in California so I could understand it. It's quite unique to embrace the Chicano culture. Much respect.

That Chicano phenomenon is world wide and has a large influence to other cultures. So props to the Chicanos from the tattoos, attire and culture .Hell I even met an Italian cholo that only speaks Italian at my kids school lol 😂. His kid goes to that school also.

Back in HS during the 90s there was heavy animosity between the Mexican gangs and Filipino gangs. The filipino gangs were created because they knew about power in numbers to protect themselves from the Mexican gangs. A lot of the Pinoys who arrived from PI that moved to Southern CA, lived in Predominately Mexican neighborhoods. Imagine being Mestizo (mexican/ filipino) in the 90s, homies with all the Mexicans, cause I grew up all the OGs and me being cool with all my Filipino homies who are also OGs. I know the filipino homies who got caught up with the law that were not US citizens, ended up deported back to PI and brought back that Southern Califas Lifestyle back with them. I stayed out of the politics and I’m still respected by everyone. Im from National City & been there since the early 80s. Im also cookie cutter. I still wear dickies, chucks, shave my head and all my tattoos are in Black and Grey. Its my Culture & how I grew up…Nasty City! 😂 I still have solid homies (real x3 OGs) from both Mexican and Filipino gangs. Were all old men and fathers/grandfathers now. You can take the Homie out the hood, but not the hood out the Homeboy!💯 Much Love and Respect from the Left Coast!

Filipinos are South East Asian. When Spain invaded the Philippines they forced them to take Spanish last names for tax purposes only. After the Spaniards left it was up to them to change to their original last name. Mexican's DNA is a combination of Native American and Iberian from Spain. Less than half a percent of the entire Filipino population has Spanish ancestry. Look up youtube videos of Filipinos DNA test results they do get disappointed when none have Spanish blood.✨

This is an LA street style. Back in the 80s and 90s, there were alot of Filipino cholos in LA. Many of them were either deported back to PH. Usually because they were involved in gangs. Or they just moved back and they brought the style with them

I think growing up in the US , Filipino and Mexicans hang out a lot, my dad was part of a gang in Orange County idk exactly Rest in peace to him, theyre mixed Filipino and Mexicans in the Gang.

Being a Filipino Homie from a Mexican Varrio, the only reason why the Pinoys got introduced to the Chicano culture is the Filipinos from the U.S. who got deported.

[@rbrtrdz9574]

Cholos are a very small part of Chicano culture, but they get all the attention due to the damage they make. Most of us Chicanos are not cholos.

True Brown Style 13 & Temple Street Trece are like Mara Salvatrucha & 18th Street of El Salvador before, they are both rivalries to each other but that was wayback before, now they are both living in peace and respect to each other ♥️

[@LyknDelToro1]

What does a video about Philippinos appropriating chicanos have to do with popuseros ilegales maaras slavatruchas from central America? Maaras slavatruchas are not even from the US they're immigrants they imitate chicanos too.

[@sfv6]

They are violent gangs!

[@omelzablan1990]

Live your life the way you want it.... but don't forget your morals.

[@johnnybgonzalez]

Great content my brother. Keep up the hustle.

[@j.angelo257]

Little did I know about this. Got familiar with the Chicano style after listening and seeing pictures of suicidal tendencies but this gave more context. Thanks!

[@paolobee3146]

Great Documentary bro! Kudos to you :)

[@Sir.SouthSider]

Thanks a ton!

[@HorsepowerIndustries]

this is a very good documentary. great research and well written. I have seen the chicano culture here in the US and have seen the popularity of this culture being adapted by Fil-Ams and eventually to our fellow kababayans back home. Southside represent!!

[@Sir.SouthSider]

Glad you enjoyed it!
