It’s not all about where you come from, it is the culture you choose to embrace. I am living in a city with almost no Americans, I am speaking Spanish, I am embracing and adapting to the culture. I am not finding a little America in Mexico to live, I am not waving an American flag, although I still blast country music when I drive. My point is, I want immigrants who move to the states to do the same. Don’t find pockets of Mexican culture in the states, speak English, don’t wave the Mexican flag. Those are the immigrants we deserve.

I love the United States, I bleed red, white, and blue, but while I am in Mexico, I am adapting and learning the culture as much as possible and not trying to convert Mexico to America. I’m not demanding more white people in politics. I sure as shit should never deserve the right to vote here. And I want the same for back home.
