Video: Making peace with los emos in Mexico City

emo1.jpgMexicoReporter.com headed down to Insurgentes yesterday with the Los Angeles Times to cover a kind of peace rally organised by the leftist city government following the friction between emos and other youth groups, reported earlier this week.

The result was this blog post by correspondent Ken Ellingwood and myself featuring a video interview with 18-year-old Andrea Velazquez.

    no manchennn, de verdad por ke les importanta tanto con el tipo de personas ke ustedes se identifican. para ke se ponen tantas “labels”
    nadamas sean lo ke ustedes kieren, los emos son iguales a todos los demas idiotas.

    why do keep labeling yourselves to a certain group. its not original since, helloooo, the world is doing it.
    being emo basically means being emotional and pretty much being depressed constantly. is that what you are?
    no, you just want to fit in with the rest of the idiots in order to get some type of point across to people that you’re better than them.
    you’re not, you are just making fools of yourselves.
    most of the emos have great lives with parents who love them, they however, just feel out of place in society which i think is a complete and utter disgrace.
