Thank you for this video. As a first generation Mexican American, I had a few Tia y Tio that would embrace this culture and I also embraced when I was young ,but as a I got older, I was always stereotyped as a gang member/uneducated/violent/ghetoo etc which made me distance from the Chicano culture. This video seeing the female engineer in her chicana style really put a smile on my face, that I should have never listen to other people's thoughts about my culture. At the age of 27, that works in the operating room, I will start embracing my chicana heritage. Going to start getting some outfits now and gotta find me some hoops lol. Thank you for this video.

wow! amazing the level of journalism of this youtuber. he captures the chicano culture well and makes it the more interesting and entertaining to watch. most people know nothing about this topic, myself included. his questions are right on point and they allow for persons to open up and speak freely about themselves, their lifestyles, ideas, feelings and why they are chicanos. here in this video we get a view into the lives of chicanas, a subject that has remained relatively shadowed by commercial tv and other mass media communication companies. the chicanas are nice people, quite friendly and fun women, many of whom were born or raised in the usa. mass media never shows this about chicana culture. usually only the negative violent stuff is mentioned and shown in mass media channels. so yes a very interesting educational and entertaining original content. the interviewer should be a professional journalist in my view and he deserves a medal for best journalist work on the subject. thanks

I’m a gringa but I have been married to a Mexican man for 10 years. He is a mechanic also and has taken me to many of these low rider events here in the US and in Mexico. Mexican ppl are the chillest, most easy going people on this planet. Even if you don’t speak Spanish and vice versa, they will offer you a taco or a horchata to drink just for visiting. Half my in laws don’t speak English but I have never felt out of place around them. I spent a month in Leon, Guanajuato in 2015 for Christmas and that was awesome. Mexican people just love to celebrate with family unlike Americans who concentrate more on material things and money 😕

[@OddFunkVolume]

Lowriding in the 90’s was treacherous. Things were a lot cheaper back then so a lot of teenage knuckleheads were able to low ride. You would get jacked for your nice ride. Now a days you hardly see kids lowriding because what kid has 100-200k to be dipping in a rag top Impala? Low riding has definitely turned into a more family friendly hobby a lot of these guys have great jobs in order to feed their lowriding addiction, some of these guys used to be hardcore gang members some still are. I have noticed lowriding and chicano culture has definitely grown in popularity recently, mainly because of social media. Although kids aren’t really lowriding like before, they do still find other ways to immerse themselves in the culture. Usually the kids/teenagers who low ride are not gang members but kids of the guys who low ride. As far as the dress code you gotta realize from the 60’s-90’s this was literally the dress code not just for gang bangers but for your everyday average kid from the barrio as well. Although to the average eye you May not be able to differentiate a “low-rider” from your active gang banger cholo if you are involved in the culture you can tell the difference….
