A Mexican-American which is a Mexican born in America, Chicanos whos parents r both born in Mexico or is Chicano mixed with nothing is pure Mexican blood but is not 100% Mexican but that doesnt mean they r white! you r only a mixed Chicano when 1 of your "parents" r white or wateva race they r, so Chicanos r full mexican blood but they r only mixed if theyre parents r sumthin else.
still in debate about it being only mexican americans and being all latinocountry descendants. I think that it should not be only mex-ame because why do they have special nickname and the rest dont.
in our school there is a crew that are called "Los Chicanos" and there is a people from different latino country descendance and no one tell them anything about not being chicanos and they all speak spanish which i think should be what really matter in being a chicano or not, not where your parents are from.
