Thank you Michael Peña for making us Chicanos proud and playing the guy's character I grew uo with in east stockton Jose Hernandez. You did his character justice. 🇲🇽🇺🇲
I grew up in Little Village, Chicago and I appreciate you coming back to your roots. One thing I was proud of in the movie “Fury”, you asked the new kid where was he from. You asked him if he was from Chicago. Thanks for representing Chicago bro!
@@akaiseigo Football meaning futbol? Not a real issue I'd day don't sit them close in a boxing match if and when the opponents are Mexican and Puerto Rican 😂
I had no idea Michael Pena is from Chicago!!! Wow!!! I'm from Brighton Park and totally want to be a chicana in film , I loved you in a million miles away
Was just in little village yesterday getting food and some alcohol and i gotta say as someone who speaks very little spanish but enough to kinda get by, everyone was very supportive and helped me out a lot and there was so much culture there and so many local entrepreneurs and its gotta be one of my favorite areas around chicago by far
As a patron of Atotonilco's Chicago Little Village since it opened in 1977 (when I was 6 yrs old) I still go there. It's nice to see the family still kept everything as it should. Great to see some of the older family members (owners wife, sister) remember my family and I when we get a chance to go there. Very little has changed in 46 years in that establishment which is a good thing. This was one of the first Mexican restaurants in Little Village, maybe the first east of Central Park ave for sure back in the 70's. The best tacos Al Pastor in Chicago. The best Horchata's (rice water), and the best ham Tortas outside Mexico City. This place set the standard on how tacos are prepared in Chicago. Most taco establishments try to emulate Atotonilco's.
I’m also first Generation American. Straight up Chicano. Straight from the Pico Union Killings fields of the 90’s. Most my homies are dead, druggies or locked up. It’s good to see other Chicanos being a good example for our youth. Much love Michael and thanks MSNBC For the upload.
if you from Chicago and from other areas from the Midwest then you’re not Chicano unless you’re Mexican-American but they don’t consider themselves as such outside of the Southwest. From what I see, Chicanos are seemingly only from the Southwestern US and they’re the only ones whom claims that identity
@@dalzvert9206 being a Chicano has nothing to do with the region you were born in. If you were born in the US and come from Mexican descent then you’re a Chicano; I say that as someone who was born in Texas
What a great episode! We need more of these two gentlemen. I’m originally from Joliet and we would go to taqueria Atotonilco on 26th street as a kid with my family.
(Stand And Deliver 1988) Was A Great Movie About The Raza That Inspired Our Youth The Previous Generation And You Could Tell That Michael Peña Inspired The Next Generation Of Raza With The Great Professor And Philosopher In The Film (Walkout 2006) And (Caesar Chavez 2014) Based On True Stories About Raza Overcoming The Struggle. I WILL FOREVER BE THANKFUL FOR FILMS LIKE THAT, THANK YOU! 💪🏽😎
Little village is literally one of most dangerous parts of Chicago for Michael Peña to get out of that neighborhood and make it to where he did is resilient and a miracle
I remember when the high school I attended in Massachusetts celebrated the one puertorrican that graduated with honors. I was so disgusted that the counselor was so proud of one! One puertorican where they were hundreds of them.
I love watching these two as actors but seeing them in this one on one interview and seeing them are normal human beings is amazing I'd love to just spend a day with the both of them just once and hear these stories in person
It bothers me that they keep saying they went to terrible schools. They should rephrase this as they went to underfunded schools. Super Mexican is also something we need to move away from as well. Being Mexican isn’t levels, he was proud of his culture and exhibited. Much like the Irish and Italian do.
I appreciate seeing this video because i felt outcasted from little village because am Puerto Rican and felt unwelcome in little village because I learned that Puerto Ricans are not well received their but I hope everyone sees this video to see them 2 together makes a statement in many ways .
I feel you brother, being from Mexican heritage in Humboldt park was rough. I’ve Never felt welcomed. Never understood why the animosity between Mexican and Puerto Rican.
just don't understand it h. park didn't show me to hate Mexicans if anything I saw and learned that Mexicans were happy to have friends of P.Rican I had friends growing up Mexican and once I moved their I learn how Mexicans in little village hate us for what . @@reneriley8132
the crazy thing is I never had a reason to hate Mex. my brother is Mex and he died at birth and my sisters are Mex I have family of many decent9if thats the right word to use) both I could believe what I had to intake from little village sideways hate I aint down with that. @@donatello4041
Isnt he Colombian!? Nonetheless, when I was in 7th/8th grade, I had curly hair, this was back in the 90s and as a Mexican I hated when ppl would say I looked puerto rican bc of my curls..it was silly but there was real beef back then between Mexicans and Puerto Ricans..now I love me some jibaritos and even visited La Isla Del Encanto!!
First place my father lived after coming here from Mexico was Chicago. I remember seeing his photos of him and friends in bell-bottoms and hippie hair, mustache. Kinda wish i was in chicago to experience it.
Little village is a dangerous place when your black…when I was a child living in the suburbs of Chicago…there was areas where it was only Mexican…I was told not to go there…But I did ..first food I ever had was a torta ..then the candy..and stuff from the bakery…it was different on that side …they had there own business and they was circulating there money…when I got older I went to that side and Latin Kings …hated me and I was lucky god was with me…My girlfriend is from Mexico City I met her in California…we moved back to the Midwest…The culture is a beautiful thing ..I wish we all could unite …But on this side or anywhere it will never happen
Uff, qué padre! Yo soy mexicano, en el USA, desde guachito. Conozco estas dos culturas, el colombo-boricua y el chicano mexicano. Yo soy pocho, nacido mexicano, con cultura algo chicana, pero más mexicana. I remember el Leguizamo from, "Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar", y "Mambo Mouth". Saludos from Florida y'all! 🇲🇽🇺🇸
Michael Peña isnt Chicano because he isnt from the Southwestern US, hes Hispanic-American of Mexican origins from the Midwest all the while John Leguizamo is Hispanic of Colombian origins from Latin America and he has no Puerto Rican origins
ahahahaha "yo soy pocho" lol es es algo de lo que no deberias estar orgulloso pocho es un insulto hahahaha mejor adaptate a tu nuevo pais o si tanto te gusta mexico entonces regresa aqui y limpia mi casa hahahaha
Yes very true about family. My friend is white. He trips out on how my Mexican family is close & that we are always together. He says he doesn’t have that in his family. Yet he loves hanging out with us.
I’m from lil village and people say he reminds people of me short Mexican with similar mannerisms when I fond out he was from the neighborhood ( different side) I t made sense but I love what you did and do for us thank u Michael pena
I Went To School With This Cat, Never Spoke To Him. I Was A Senior And He Was A Freshman..but I'm so glad he made it..proud of him..hope to meet him someday..maybe on my podcast...wink wink!!
I used to live in Chicago and I remember Taqueria Atotonilco. I got so excited when I first saw it because that's where my parents are from only to learn that the owners aren't even from Atotonilco. They just basically stole the name.

So proud of Peña , never knew he was from little village so happy to see someone representing us in a positive way.
Yeah but he's a Scientologist 🤦🙅
He represents Scientology not Raza😏👎🏼.
Love this guy. Great representation of us first generation Mexicans. We have similar stories
Same here growing up here in the late 80s
First generation chicano, you probably meant to say
@Roxy_Penny8889 you're from the country you were born. If you was born into the US, you're not mexican
@Roxy_Penny8889 even if your parents are mexicans
@@hernandezgg8720lol, no he didn’t. He meant first Generation American.

Atotonilco taqueria is my favorite taquería in the world. I haven’t found better tasting tacos anywhere, not even in Mexico.
The Al pastor tacos are world class
@@dustywagon298 Been to hundreds of taquerias throughout Mexico and I have not found better tasting pastor.
You should try the adobada/al pastor from TJ.

What a great episode! We need more of these two gentlemen. I’m originally from Joliet and we would go to taqueria Atotonilco on 26th street as a kid with my family.
I love going to Little Village. I have family there and it's nice to be around the Raza. Reminds me of back home at el DF. Barrio Mexicano
This was so wonderful to see, what a shame it was not displayed to a major audience.
My parents were migrants. Grew up on southside chicago. Made it out 11 years ago and now in college and three beautiful kids. Stay strong brothers.
Much love to the both of them.there both really good actors and it's nice to see that they came to the barrrio.
Wow, TH-cam.....why isn't this more popular? Why are you hiding this?
Bc he didn’t go to Farragaut and bc he didn’t wanna take a pic a Chuy garcias B**** a**
I was raised in Little Village back in the late 60's and early 70's. Worked on 26th street.
Stand and Deliver is one of my favorite movies.
Love these two talented gentlemen, would be great to see them in the same movie!

The chemistry these two guys have I want to see a buddy cop movie comedy
A funny cop movie would be awesome.
Pena already did Last of Watch, but put these 2 in something!
I’m just glad that I’m able to understand what they are saying without the subtitles.
Two of my favorite actors.
My two favorite human beings on earth. God bless your energies.
Thank you guys.
I did not know Michael pena was from Chicago wow😮
Had me at Peña then added a Leguizamo? Awesome.
These two need to make a movie together...I love Them! 🎥💯

These two are great actors and have always reminded me of each other!
I remember when the high school I attended in Massachusetts celebrated the one puertorrican that graduated with honors. I was so disgusted that the counselor was so proud of one! One puertorican where they were hundreds of them.
Love for you both from Pilsen 🧡

It bothers me that they keep saying they went to terrible schools. They should rephrase this as they went to underfunded schools. Super Mexican is also something we need to move away from as well. Being Mexican isn’t levels, he was proud of his culture and exhibited. Much like the Irish and Italian do.
Something that bother me as well is that they keep saying Mexicans dress this way we in fact we all don’t..
