Tyrese Gibson Honors Mexican Heritage With Powerful Poem And Fans React


Tyrese Gibson has dropped a very heartfelt poem in honor of Mexican culture, and with that, every ounce of electricity in him electrified...

The actor-singer shared an impassioned post on Instagram entitled “We Are the Ones Who Cross the Sun.” Featuring a mixture of Spanish and English lines, it pays tribute to the resilience and courage of the Mexican people. In the poem, USA Gibson sets Mexican pride on a grand pedestal and with equal humility sets the working-class immigrant who takes pride in working hard and raising his family in L.A. in that same light: “No vinimos a robar – vinimos a sembrar” and “México no es frontera, ni muro, ni visa – México eres tú: fuego, lucha y risa,” deeply touching and resonating with the audience. Because I don’t see other actors like the ones selling Tequila saying something about what’s happening!” probably a sarcastic reference to those high-profile stars profiting from Mexican culture but going mute when it comes to the people’s problems.
