John Leguizamo Just Nailed the Hypocrisy of People of Color Having to Learn White Culture
When it comes to the cultural exchange in the United States, John Leguizamo says it's more than a bit one-sided.
In a video interview with Big Think posted Saturday, the 51-year-old award-winning actor and playwright spoke about the inequities of forcing people of color to learn white culture without white culture reciprocating.
He said:
"As a Latin person, you know, minorities, black people have to do it as well. We have to immerse ourselves in white culture and learn about white culture. And it's all we were taught in school and in movies. And so we learn but it's not reciprocal, you know. It's not a reciprocal thing that happens that white culture wants to learn about Latin culture or black culture."
