Speaking of "assimilation," my first name is Russell. I'm named after my uncle Russell Contreras, who was named after 1940s singer Andy Russell (whose real name was Andrés Rábago...yes, he was Mexican American).https://twitter.com/tombrokaw/status/1089663227829592065 …

One day before I forget. Mexican actress Rosaura Revueltas was deported to Mexico during the filming of the 1954 film ‘Salt of the Earth.’ That’s why she doesn’t appear in the final scene.pic.twitter.com/jH0Q58Dv0g
