There was a cheesy post apocalyptic sci-fi show in NBC years ago called Revolutions about how electricity stopped working, and the US collapsed into small squabbling fiefdoms, but in the second season you found out Mexico had come out of it united and as the dominant power in North America
i wrote a thread a long time ago on twitter while bored in mexico about how the future of the north american continent, after some kind of social collapse etc, would be an extended mestizo empire because of culture and kin networks and i fear that i was right in a way that i really didn't intend lol
i more or less accede to the concept of cosmic race but i don't think my interpretation, nor vasconcelos's own, is what happens in practice, unfortunately lol
when i volunteered for a nonprofit that sends books to people doing time in US prisons, more than half the requests were for books about black pride and/or la raza cósmica. some were specific and some were just gutwrenching vague, like, "send me a book about someone like me having power".
