Latin Laughing Enough

More From Chita Rivera

I don't think it's my responsibility, but i definitely try to create my own projects that are latin-based with a latin crew and latin cast. i try to give all my characters latin names whenever i can and make sure that they are of latin heritage. but that does not work with every project.
Latin Character Responsibility
"i've found out why people laugh. they laugh because it hurts so much... because it's the only thing that'll make it stop hurting" ... "but that's not all people laugh at." "isn't it? perhaps i don't grok all its fullness yet. but find me something that really makes you laugh sweetheart... a joke, or anything else- but something that gave you a a real belly laugh, not a smile. then we'll see if there isn't a wrongness wasn't there." he thought. "i grok when apes learn to laugh, they'll be people."

Jack, my 16 year old, was in knots a couple of months back, studying for latin. i said, "mate, you've got no interest in latin. you don't want to go into it after, so drop it." he said, "no, i can't. i'm going to get bullied at school because all my mates are in there." there's a prime example of why no one cooks at school. you're studying latin, you've got no interest.

Mexico city is the center of art and culture and politics and has been and continues to be for latin america in a way that i think really called to me as an artistic person, as someone that was interested in the politics of latin america, you know. god, every single famous person in latin american history and art and politics seems to have found their way to mexico city.
Art Latin Thinking
Things have changed in latin america now. we mostly have democratic governments in latin america, so the position of the writer has changed. it is not as neruda used to say, that a latin american writer walks around with the body of his people on his back. now, we have citizens, we have public means of expression, political parties, congress, unions. so, the writer's position has changed, we now consider ourselves to be citizens - not spokespeople for everybody - but citizens that participate in the political and social process of the country.
Country Latin Party
The most important thing paris gave me was a perspective on latin america. it taught me the differences between latin america and europe and among the latin american countries themselves through the latins i met there.
