How Trump’s comments unleashed ‘Latino Spring‘

By Felix Sanchez

Call it “Latino Spring.”
There were no mass demonstrations in the streets, but Latino protesters amassed online. Their focus? The hurtful anti-Mexican comments made by Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

Latinos gathered in social media circles to condemn, plot and retaliate against Trump with such fervor in the past two weeks that they caused three multibillion dollar media companies to back away from him: Univision, NBC and Televisa.

The Latino community could not take this quietly, with actors and singers taking to the virtual streets to denounce Trump.

The honor roll of protesters began with J. Balvin, Roselyn Sánchez and Cristián de la Fuente of Colombian, Puerto Rican and Chilean heritage, respectively; all had been scheduled to participate in the Miss USA Pageant on July 12, but on principle dropped out. Cheryl Burke, Thomas Roberts and Natalie La Rose also stepped down from the telecast in solidarity with Latinos, and Mexico has withdrawn from the Miss Universe pageant.

And … so on, so on, so on …. you know the stories!

#LatinosUnidos …. “Ricky Martin on Trump’s Rant”!!

Ricky Martin Joins Anti-Trump Effort, Nixes Charity Golf Tourney from Trump’s Golf Club in Puerto Rico

Ricky Martin is not only a world-class singer and performer, but he’s also a philanthropist, a supporter of marriage equality and gay rights. When he heard Donald’s hurtful comments about Mexican immigrants, he couldn’t allow himself to be professionally associated with someone who preaches such ignorance and negativity to the world.
Martin has pulled the annual Ricky Martin Foundation charity golf event at the Trump International Golf Club Rio Grande, Puerto Rico, according to a press release.

The Puerto Rican Grammy and Latin Grammy winner is joining the anti-Donald Trump movement along with Macy’s, Univision, NBC Universal and Televisa as well as fellow entertainers Roselyn Sanchez and J Balvin in cutting off business affiliations and/or ties to Trump.

Martin’s tweet was sparked by Univision taking the initiative to drop the Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants after the Republican candidate’s derogatory campaign speech.

“When Mexico sends its people they’re not sending the best,” Trump said. “They’re not sending you, they’re sending people that have lots of problems and they’re bringing those problems.

They’re bringing drugs, they’re bringing crime.

They’re rapists and some, I assume, are good people, but I speak to border guards and they’re telling us what we’re getting.”

The avid social media user, who has millions of followers, first shared his thoughts on Trump’s out-of-line rant, denouncing his comments on Twitter.

“A lot of hatred and ignorance in your heart,” Martin wrote in Spanish.

“Hay mucha ignorancia y odio en tu corazón”.

~Shakira & Ricky Martin contra Trump por discurso racista~

~~Published on Jul 2, 2015~~

Palabras como estas: “Voy a construir una muralla en nuestra frontera suereña y haré que los mexicanos paguen”, “cuando México envía a su gente no envían a los mejores. Mandan a gente que trae drogas y crimen”.

Le han costado la pérdida de muchos apoyos a Donald Trump.

Shakira, Ricky Martin y Eva Longoria entre otros artistas han utilizado sus redes sociales para denunciar los comentarios xenófobos del millonario.

Roselyn Sanchez Bows Out as Miss USA Co-Host After Donald Trump’s Anti-Immigrant Speech

Roselyn Sanchez, the Puerto Rican singer/actress and star of Lifetime’s Devious Maids, has bowed out as co-host of the Miss USA pageant, citing Donald Trump’s comments in his June 16 presidential-bid speech.

“I was very excited and proud to have been invited to participate in Miss USA, but as a Latina, that is now inconceivable,” Sanchez said in a statement.

“Although I am not Mexican, I am Puerto Rican and a proud Latina, and his comments were an insult to our culture.

I won’t sponsor anything produced by Donald Trump.”

J Balvin Cancels Miss USA Performance After Donald Trump’s Comments on Latins

Sanchez was slated to co-host the Spanish-language simulcast of Miss USA alongside actor Cristian De La Fuente, who also pulled out.

Likewise, on Thursday (June 25), Univision announced it was ending the company’s business relationship with the Miss Universe Organization, based on his remarks.

Univision Ending Relationship With Donald Trump’s Miss Universe Organization Over Anti-Immigrant Remarks

Sanchez is the latest Latin artist to raise her voice in protest following Trump’s speech, in which he referred to Mexican and Latin American immigrants as criminals and rapists.

Following rock band’s Maná very public denouncement of the speech during a Los Angeles show, Colombian star J Balvin canceled his Miss USA performance. It would have been his first mainstream TV performance in the U.S.

Early on in his speech, Trump said: “The U.S. has become a dumping ground for everybody else’s problems. When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people. It’s coming from more than Mexico. It’s coming from all over South and Latin America, and it’s coming probably — probably — from the Middle East.”

Sanchez, herself a former beauty queen (she won Miss Puerto Rico Petite and Miss America Petite), played FBI agent Elena Delgado on Without a Trace and now plays Carmen Luna on Devious Maids.
