A nueva generation poised to shape pop culture
Tagged: bilingual, children“at the start of the 21st century, it’s a new generation of Hispanics who are poised to become the next major cultural drivers.”
“While the political spotlight has been on Hispanic immigrants, social scholars and purveyors of media and entertainment are already focusing on their children, an exploding generation of bilingual, bicultural Hispanics who are rapidly emerging as a force that will affect music, television, movies, fashion, advertising, slang, and just about everything else in American pop culture.
Because they grew up in the United States fluent in two languages and two cultures, young American-born Hispanics — who often call themselves Latinos, rather than Hispanics — form a kind of bridge. Not only are they Latinizing the American mainstream, they are Americanizing what it means to be Hispanic in the United States.”
