Hey,

I just wanted to know what did you mean with the big sign that says: "Hispanics doesn't include all of Latinos" ?

Or did you mean to offend every other culture because I'm Mexican-American and I think that what you're trying to do is divide different spanish ethnic groups.

I think we are all spanish in some way or form, I don't think we spanish people should start dividing into different groups like: Hispanics, Latins,or some other name.

Joanna,

Thank you for writing. I will try to get back to the artist, Carlos Jimenez. I believe the artist is attempting to shine a light on the many Spanish speaking peoples and cultures of the world, not to divide, but also not to homogenize or blend the many into a pastel paste of assimulated humanity.

I will try to contact him to get his take on your thoughts.

C. Drew - founder
