Immortal Technique heavily impacted my beliefs in middle school so I’m happy to hear.
On Mexican OT though. I’m from Texas originally. People will have a hard time trying to get him to stop saying it lol that’s obvious already but as a chicano that did live in texas I’m telling you lol
The history of the word gets disconnected. Like they know but to them that’s another time and the word isn’t used the same anymore. To them it’s just a casual and informal word. Friendly even. It’s certainly not out of racism at least. I personally have always protested it. I didn’t really grow up in Texas though so my position is a little different.
Oh yeah ! I 100% know it’s not from a racist place, and I’m a little white dude so I have no real horse in this race, I’m not gonna tell anyone shit if they’re not white ya know. OT still raps with some of my favorite rappers so it seems pretty negligible in general, and funny enough i don’t think he said it on his newest tracks with Denzel 😂 and he’s fun
