VIDEO: First Look - Emilio Estefan Releases Tribute Video 'We're All Mexican'
To coincide with Hispanic Heritage Month, Emilio Estefan has released his tribute video, "We're All Mexican," to celebrate accomplishments by the Latino community around the globe.
According to the video's official description:
The title of the song, "We're all Mexican" is intended as a metaphor symbolizing that we can all become the victims of racism and bigotry at any moment as Mexicans are experiencing in recent times. Mexicans are being vilified in the United States by some of the media and political leaders and in some of the public's sentiment because they comprise 67% of the Latino population and because their native country shares a direct border with the United States and are the majority of the "Latinos" crossing that particular border.
But around the world, different immigrant groups are harassed and made to be scapegoats for the ills of their respective countries of residence. the song, "We're All Mexicans", celebrates the positive contributions of immigrants in the United States as a balance to the negativity being expressed publicly.
