Nothing will never deport the truth about Latino; Not even Donald Trump.
In a year, political vitriol and stable elimination of Latin stories, The Return of the Return John LeguizamoImportant and recreational series “Leguzamo America does“One becomes a cultural opposition, which we need in dire need.
The second season of his MSNBC documentaries, which begins to air on Sunday night, sees Leguzamo, 64, discovering new cities including Philadelphia, Phoenix, New Orleans and San Antonio.
Amy and Tony Award winning actors and activists have long used their platform to spot Lathani excellence and highlight the system that suppressed it. In the first season of “Leguisamo DOS America”, he traveled across the US, from Miami to Los Angeles, lifting veils on Latin communities, often ignoring or incorrectly presented in mainstream media, raising veils on Latinian communities.
President Donald once again dominated political talks with Donald Trump-and displayed Zenophobic rhetoric that started in 2016 with his administration-Latin communities face dangers daily and moment-by-moment. From large -scale exile to immigrant crime and culture, the GOP -led GOPs are again increasing fear as a policy.
This year, in many headlines, unlike (and American-births) migrants to be abducted in border states, ice (immigration and customs enforcement) are being abducted by school courses in states such as Florida and Texas. This eradication is no longer rhetorical; This is becoming institutional.
Enter “Leguisamo America”, now more important than ever. Season 2 continues to celebrate Latin identity, while directly challenges misinformation that runs the anti -Latino spirit. In a media scenario, which still reduces Latino – which makes about 20% of the US population – the show cries both reality checks and rally.
More than a travelogue, “Leguzamo America does” is a thoughtful political work – the story as resistance, as a protest and love as the final weapon. Leguzamo’s hot humor and unfliest commentary make room for hard conversations – immigration, about identity and which is really meant to be what it means to be American.
At a time when Latin voters are a decisive force, the show succeeds on what politicians often fail to do: listen. For those who still see Latino nothing more than gardeners, Handimen outside the home depot, or worse – criminal aliens bring drugs across the border – you will do a great service to know about our vibrant culture and people.
With Leguzamo, director Ben Dejesus and Shorner Carolina Savedra raise real voices from the real neighborhood, the show reminds the audience – and voters – that the Latinian communities are not unbroken. Rather, they are rich in American fabrics, diverse and deeply embedded.
At a moment when Latin’s life is often politicized or erased, “Leguizamo does America” ​​stands as proof: we are here. We are watching And our stories will not be silent.
The second season of “Leguizamo Do America” ​​premieres on ET at 9 pm on MSNBC on Sunday, July 6.
