Interesting the text Fania All Stars does not appear on this page. Are we dismissing Barretto's contribution to the salsa explosion in the '60s/'70s?
Puerto-Rican-American is a stretch. When you're born in New York, you are.......
But I'm not reverting. Enjoy life. elpincha 23:52, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
- Maybe you've never heard of Irish-Americans, Italian-Americans, Mexican-Americans, Jewish-Americans, so on and so on? Where's the stretch? Tony the Marine 01:03, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] American?
Hi. I was discussing here about American vs. Puerto-Rican American. Now it is just Puerto Rican, which to this observer is kinda POV. When somebody is born in New York City, he is American. You may add hyphens etc., but you cannot avoid "American", which you would use for all other people born in NYC. By the way, I am engaged in the same discussion about Alex Rios, who was born in Alabama.
Maybe the Puerto Rican group has a point, but methinks that for everybody on the outside, the current accommodation is wrong. elpincha 03:31, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
- I have changed this to American per WP:MOSBIO --70.109.223.188 (talk) 17:16, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
