The Bad Bunny Super Bowl Performance Required no Translation for this Working Mom

People were all up in arms about the "Bad Bunny" performance. They wondered whether they would enjoy it/understand it since the entire performance was in Spanish. What this working mom, and the world learned, his performance required no translation.

Bad Bunny is All American!


The performance was energetic, creative and cultural. And the culture, I am referencing is, "American". You see, America, the home of the free and the brave, is a composite of immigrants who traversed here in search of a better life. Immigrants who believed that the ideals that the founders held dear existed to protect them and their family. They believed that they could live here, practice their religion, love their families and pursue happiness--in harmony--alongside others who also loved their families a but might practice another religion and speak a different language.

So miss me with the notion that the "Bad Bunny" Super Bowl performance was "political", which is really code for it being liberal, especially since part of what carried the last election for this administration were the votes of Latino men. This performance was an expression of America in its purest form. It was the articulation of American culture wrapped in song. And, it delivered by a man who had the courage to stand on the largest stage and ask the question, in the fashion of Sojourner Truth, "Ain't I an American"?!
