I won’t be doing much posting today and it’s not because I’m nursing a Cinco de Mayo hangover.

I’m spending the day speaking to some high school students about media and identity politics.

So while I go to shape young minds, portanse bien.

From the VivirLatino WTF Files

vlLate last night I was reading through some of the site’s stats and I always like to see how people get to our site including keywords.

Now I’m used to the keyword analysis stats that show that many people stumble upon our site while looking for Latino themed porn and are bummed that all the searches for tetas are about me breastfeeding or breast cancer.

Pero last night’s keywords have me saying wtf.

For example: “Why do mexicans do their children’s hair so ugly?”

Huh? And that person came to VL not once pero twice.

and

“What did the latins still from the black man?”

I think it’s steal pero really? That would explain some of our comments.

Just because VivirLatino has moved to a new server and a new publishing program does not mean that our comment policy has changed. Anti-immigrant comments will be deleted. If you have to ask if your comment is anti-immigrant, it probably is.

Thanks for Staying With Us!

Oh we missed you and are happy to be back.
