Now how the white people gentrified it in the states is an entirely different video!!! About a century after the battle of Puebla- mexican Americans started a Chicano movement fighting for civil rights, cultural recognition, and celebrating Mexican culture turning cinco de mayo into a source of pride and then BOOM 1980s white people got a hold of cinco de mayo and gentrified it turning it into a capitalistic holiday But I digress #cincodemayo #cincodedrinko #blackhistory #mexicanhistory #chicano
