And personally for me it is a political mechanism where art and humor combine to give an opinion about it and protest passively.

Racism in Latin America

The Racism in Latin America is very noticeable in places where people are present very distinct breed with this I refer to blacks and Indians. For example in the videos that we watched  in class Dominican Republic rejected the young man in the baseball team because their parents were not born in the country , this is discrimination to race , no less for having roots elsewhere in contrast has greater cultural wealth. In the others two videos we see references to Afro-Brazilians and Afro-Ecuadorians. In these cases it is seen as their rights are ignored and mistreated as his identity. Also looks like stereotype these people for their roots, they are labeled as thieves, drugs addicts, and other aspects that may have a white person. Not to be white, black or indian but to be bad person.

Bangkok's ' Mexican' Gangsters

How are Thai gangsters an example of cultural appropriation of another subculture?

The Thai Gangsters are an example of an appropriation of another subculture because they are not Mexican, much less Gangster, but they decide to take over this lifestyle because they fell well in his heart as a Gangsters are already about 27 members who share this lifestyle.

What do we learn about Thai and Mexican subcultures from this article & video within the article?

I think we can grow with certain genetic traits that we have framed in a culture such as Thai, and we could identify with and fell part of something entirely different as the Mexican Gangster, I can learn the identify of which they speak they fell in your heart  notwithstanding any gangster not be and they disciver in that other same desire,, appropriation and identity that would  teach us a lot.
