Just because we finally have a Latino family on TV doesn't mean we're up there to lecture people about what it means to be Latino.
It's interesting: I think, as a Latino actor, the biggest challenge is being called 'Latino' because immediately, the world has a perception of what that means.
I broke into acting doing Latino roles. I played a Latino casanova in 'The Winner' and a Latino character on 'Hannah Montana.'
People ask me: "Do I consider myself to be a Latino writer?" "What does it mean to be Latino?" Those are very strange questions to answer , but feminism is easier because it's just an ideology, a way I live my life. And absolutely in the most political sense I try to sit down and write very strong female roles.
When I was growing up, I lived in a neighborhood that was largely Latino and I thought I was Latino!
I feel so much pride to represent my community and be Latino. No doubt about it, above my career and sales being a Latino comes first.
We use the word 'urban' to mean black or Latino, but that's not what the word means. It actually means 'from the city.' I'm not from the city. I'm from the suburbs of Connecticut. I grew up with mostly all white people.
Just because you are Latino does not mean you can't be global.
I don't want the Latino community to think I think the reason Latino films are not doing well is because of us. It is not fully our responsibility.

I have been in rooms with people arguing over a character that's not really fleshed out: that, just because the surname is Latino, that automatically means you have an accent.
I see a Latino comic as someone who can only perform for Latino audiences. I cross the board.
Audiences are more drawn in to what they can relate to, so it would be stupid not to have great Latino films for the Latino audience.
'Hispanic' is English for a person of Latino origin who wants to be accepted by the white status quo. 'Latino' is the word we have always used for ourselves.
Fox News Latino has a mission to point out the positives of the Latino population, operating within the framework of making America great.
The irony here is that the Latino left had criticized the conservative movement for years that they were not doing outreach to the Latino community. Now that the conservative movement is doing outreach and engaging in the Latino community on a national scale, they're criticizing us for that too. You can't have it both ways.
We gotta be proud to be Latino. It's almost like we cheating because we're American and we live by American customs, but at the same time, we got that Latino culture. We cheating; we double dipping.
