I don’t like Erica at all, but that is a pretty funny name to call someone. It’s more funny if you watch the show The League, though. LOL anyway, Erica called Somaya a “taco” in a video interview makings its rounds on the net, and Somaya has responded via MDLS. Check out her response below.

“It’s saddens me that she’s ashamed of her Latin culture. I remember when I was speaking to her in Spanish on Episode 9 (bonus clip is on vh1.com) she began mocking it, mocking our Spanish language that she speaks?

After years of fighting racism and equality in this country as Hispanics, to throw a “Latin stereotypical racial slur” at me like “Taco” is incredibly disappointing, ignorant and insulting to my entire Latin culture. I’m a proud Latina and continuously fight against racism, immigration laws, racial equality in the workplace and many issues regarding our culture. Considering I don’t know the child, she has made it a continuous habit to use my name in order for her to gain relevance in the press. She doesn’t hold a credible presence in the media unless it involves slandering or defaming my name. She’s not to be described in 1 word but a few. One is ‘Classless’.”
