Can Somebody Please Give me an Award? (I’m Hispanic!)

That’s it! Now that Billboard magazine and the Hollywood Reporter have named America Ferrera “Hispanic Woman of the Year,” (with a gala and whole enchilada included) I decided there is no reason for me not to be nominated for something —whatever (I’m not that picky).

So while I wait for some organization to realize I’m here and contact me with the great news, I am hereby nominating myself as the “Disgruntled, non-Famous, Certainly-not-Mainstream, Harlem-Beaner-Blogger of the Week.”

And if you think I have no reasons to support my claim, check out just a few of the awards that are out there (so many awards so little time to win them all!).

-Hispanic Entrepreneur of the Year (Hispanic Business Magazine)

-Hispanic Businessman of the Year (U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce)

Hispanic Businesswoman of the Year (U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce)

…The list goes on, and on, and on….
