John Leguizamo is on a mission, a much needed mission to recognize, humanize, and reward Hispanics & Latinos in our contributions in this country. He is passing the message we must be proud of our heritage because it has a rich history and we are family. Gracias John.❤
I am adding that I am Black on purpose because we are often put against each other for the scraps. But I want to say I LOVE THIS!!! The Latin community needs to be in film more and recognized. Everyone… everyone deserves to be represented on tv 😘
John you are the monster working behind the scenes. Way to go, my sincere respect for you and all the Latinos that you represents. Blessings from Massachusetts
I follow Mr. Leguizamo’s work. I’m happy to see that people from all over the US and the world be honored. We are all human beings, and what differences there are should be celebrated and storied for all to share.
Growing up, my favourite characters were Claire Huxtable and Murphy Brown and Oprah, they all looked different on the outside, but on the inside, they were strong women (characters) I admired and none of them looked like me…I was a kid in Australia.
Love you, John..and for this time, the right time to say what you said..!!!??? Which its so trueeee!!!.. Why Latinos imitation roles were given to famous actors already where they made a lot more money and not to Latinos in general and original ones? Latinos couldve made recognition for any outstanding roles for themselves and be given the opportunity for success!!!...as the American Actor who imitated us did!!!??? John, GRACIAS, MIJO..POR TU PUNTO DE SINCERIDAD EN TU PRESENTACION Thank you, so muchhh...❤❤❤❤
That's right represent 👏🏽.... finally ya waking up and realizing that we are indigenous to this land!! I always knew and wondered if any celeb that was indigenous would ever start using their platform to school folks.
@@CactusJack60if that's what you think. He acknowledged we are all the same, so we should be treated as such. If you actually COMPREHEND what he said, you would understand.
@@mistahkrazy805 don't be so mad. As a Latino, I am proud of my heritage and I don't need anyone to force anything because as I've seen with my own two eyes.. the more you try to force things the more people are going to disassociate.. I am proud that my culture and American culture can co-exist. I believe that pointing out our differences, regardless of how you pointed out, will always cause division. You can be upset all you want. But progressivism will always conquer traditionalism, but they're are only so many ways to be a human being
Such a lack of nuance and realism... This is a speech that is necessary for politics but SERIOUSLY irrelevant for media. This makes it harder to have thoughtful discussions about race, gender, and politics. Instead of discussing the complexities, conversations often become “you’re either with us or against us,”
HUGE CORRECTION: Viola Davis WAS NOT the first black woman to win an academy award, it was MS. HATTIE DANIELS from "GONE WITH THE WIND." PLEASE let's not forget Ms. Daniel's contribution to the American film industry.
Why when I started listening to John, I thought he was impersonating our worst president Danny Trumpet . PLEASE tell me I'm not the only one. LOVE ME SOME JOHN!
They should have an unseen computer fact checker at every presidential debate. That would send Trump nuts because it's difficult attack something you can't see. John Leguizamo is a genius.😂
Now I get why we say “La raza” when talking about Latinos/Hispanics. A mestizo group of people who are all LATINO. todas las sangres, we make them all.
More stories, John Leguizamo you didn't mention Native American Stories. In the seated audience, I see a peek of a Beautiful Indigenous Native American Woman silky black hair and a red laced feather adorns with a bone necklace. Mother Earth Skin Tones her beauty, wearing Red. A wonderful sight to see but she sticks out like a sore thumb, a sad reality when Indigenous people should be culture and traditional flourish first and foremost in Indigenous Country known to be America. A'ho!
I love John, problem for me that whenever I hear this type of rhetoric, the person talking about the lack of diversities on film always seem to miss actors such as Star Trek - Ricardo Montoblan, my cousin Linda Dangcil, Rita Moreno (EGOT) and so many more. But all conversations also miss the one actor who has been in more films and TV productions, Danny Trejo. MACHETE. It’s a nice speech, and yes, “Hollywood” could be more diverse on screen, I would be more interested in the industry hiring more people of color behind the scenes. Note, the four producers in my book that always have had a diverse cast in their respective productions would be Clint Eastwood, Don Johnson, chuck Norris, and Kevin Costner have always cast appropriately. But thy never get the credit. It would be nice to one day celebrate their contributions. 🙏💪🌍🌎🌏❤️🇺🇸🖖
I'm not LATIN X...THIS IS A GENDER NUETRAL WORD ISED TO GET RID OF MALE M FEMALE GENDERS... I'M MEXICAN AMERICAN I DONT EANT TO LOOSE MY DYSTINCT AND BEAUTIFUL CULTURE.
Disrespecting Desi Arnaz like that was fucked up, Desilu Productions developed the multi cam setup, as well as having audiences on sound stage tapings and created the syndication of tv shows which made so many so much money. He was immigrant that came to America with nothing and made himself into a Hollywood legend
That was not disrespect? That was imitating/comedy!..Didn't you hear what John L., started saying? That all great American Actors has imitating US - Latinos in general in all their movies made and have made a lot of money!!!???? So, why such roles were not given to all of US - Latinos to succeed as they did!!??? That alone it was a disrespect to US! That's All...Take Care..
@@cecilialeon6588 well it's true. They used non latin people to play latin parts. If he was lying then I would say that was disrespectful. Spitting facts can sometimes feel/sound like disrespect to others. He wasn't he was pointing out what we already know.
What a passionate speech, but I really disliked his use of "Latinx." We are not a monolith. Each Latino culture is distinct and should be celebrated. Grouping all Latinos under a single term oversimplifies our diversity, which feels like a form of erasing our uniqueness.
Instead of bringing people together, the woke movement has created more division. People often align with strict social and political groups, making it hard to agree on common issues. This has led to more online arguments, where people only listen to similar opinions and criticize those who think differently. With the rise of wokeness, complex social issues are often simplified into black-and-white, good-vs-bad stories. This makes it harder to have thoughtful discussions about race, gender, and politics. Instead of discussing the complexities, conversations often become “you’re either with us or against us,” leaving little room for middle ground. society is becoming too focused on labeling and categorizing people based on these characteristics rather than focusing on shared human experiences or individuality.
But see those are just two people. Don’t you see the problem? When you can count all the Latin people practically on your fingers, there’s a problem with a lack of diversity and opportunity for Latin actors. Latin stories. Latin experimce
Leguizamo apparently believes that AL Pacino & Natalie wood didn't do a great job acting in Scarface or West side story .im glad he isn't a casting director
@@hrossaman you are right. Agendas over movies never worked. I understand before there was a lack of diversity in casts. Now I think thats obligatory wich is hilarious. Not everything needs to be diverse, if somehow doesn't happen to be. Forcing something because of an agenda is what is really killing the industry.
Worst part of the entire emmys, dragged the show down in this self-complimentary way that most people outside of Hollywood simply hate from the business.

Hispanic/Latinos have been ignored for far too long and we still have a long way to go.
John should host Emmys or Oscars.
My hats off to his speech.

Wow, he did this!
It is time that we get representation of our communities. I hope our voices get heard and not be diluted our culture. We need to support our raza.
REPRESENTATION MATTERS. Only those who always see themselves reflected in the media they consume will ask themselves why such a speech is necessary
