Edward James Olmos, The Man with a Broom and Soul

LAWeekly's got a nice profile of Chicano wunderkind Edward James Olmos.

When I get interviewed for Tex[t]-Mex, I invariably get asked to hold forth on the state of the nation when it comes to Latina/o stereotypes--what's in the cards for the 21st century "ethnic mannequins" in Hollywood.

With activist/artists like Eddie J, the future looks bright, with something like hope breaking out over the horizon.
