Tomas Requejo - LOWRIDER Roll Models Ep. 24

"Taking the positive and the negative and making something of yourself. That’s what being a Lowrider Roll Model is all about"

[@issacf4416]

“I’m a trial attorney, I’m a low riding role model, and I’m running for President of The United States.. and I endorse this message.

[@theburners32141]

Damn. That was inspirational when he talked about his grandmother. His grandmother is right though, as a people we need lawyers, doctors, cops, nurses, professionals. We can do it people. We suffer enough and yet we have not been broken.

[@mreastla2953]

Had my brother and his whole family crying. Great story.

[@realcm14]

This is a great episode. When he talks about being locked up and hitting switches, it always makes me smile. Thank you.

[@highpowerx4554]

All the lowrider roll models episodes are great but this has to the best one yet..very inspirational alot of what he is saying is true. So young Latinos this is a true role model..not these gangsters,drug dealers or fake gangster rappers... this one should be shown at high schools for the young students. Thank you Tomas Requejo..

[@andyk3950]

Agreed!

[@josephortiz7726]

All these low riders roll model stories all hit you in the heart. Maybe it’s because these stories remind us were we came from and family is everything.

I’m a UCLA grad who attended at the same time of Tomas. He always cared about community and, clearly, still does. I knew him but didn’t know his backstory. As others have said, an inspiring story. He’s a credit to his family and community. Thanks to Low Rider for the video and, especially, to Tomas for living and giving.

Holly fuk man......this one hit me ese. I myself am a lowrider model and have inspired a few myself 😎 I never thought I'd own a lowrider. It was just a dream of mine. I'm from Bakersfield CA born and raised. Raised on Lakeview and 19th mostly on E18th & Robinson not going to talk about them days just know I used to bang boogie 😎 well now I'm about to turn 33 years old I completely changed my life and now I own a 87 el camino, silver metallic, 13 Inc 72 cross lase on brand new white walls. HiLow 3 pumps 8 batteries and a 79 Monte Carlo project I'm bringing out and starting this spring of 2022 but man back in 02-17 life was different for me I was active and really out there. Some of us didn't make it most of us got locked and very few are where I stand toda with a solid name still.
