Well, well, well.
Trying to educate myself on #Afromexicans, I have recently learned about the Dance of the Devils, a uniquely Afromexican tradition for #DayOfTheDead.
Man, it would have been sooooo cool if this had made it into #Coco but nobody would have known what it was, including most Mexicans.
@JordiGH Yup! Valens was Mexican-American, born Richard Valenzuela. Chicano rock basically starts with him.
Whaaaaat, how did I never notice that La Bamba is #Afromexican in origin?
Ah, probably because it was made popular by Ritchie Valens in the US, which made me think that it wasn't a Mexican song at all. But it is!
#Ethnography is complicated.
