Gentefied co-creator and co-showrunner Linda Yvette Chavez says that even though Netflix has canceled the series, she’s immensely proud of how the dramedy played out
“In a world where revolutionary art is commodified we have to rethink the way in which we value it,” Chavez wrote on Twitter Friday, a day after news ofs cancellation after two seasons. “Metrics and algorithms will never measure the true impact of what we did here.
… We may never see how deep the work goes or how far it reaches, what seeds we planted for change in the world, but we do the work anyway.”, which based on a web series they made. The show centers on three Mexican American cousins chasing the American dream in Los Angeles, even while that same dream threatens the things they hold most dear: their neighborhood, their immigrant grandfather and the family taco shop.
