    Well, I must admit that picture caught my attention. I’ve been a fan of Bratt’s for a long time, ever since his time on Law & Order.

      I’m very involved in the Quechua/Kichwa community in the area in which I live. Many of our students are Kichwa and I’ve had the opportunity and honor to have been on the Kichwa Hatari radion station in NYC and will be an upcoming guest on their television show. I didn’t know that Benjamin Bratt is Quechua and instantly reblogged this. The New York Quechua Initiative has one of my favorite blogs. I hope a lot of people check it out. Pretty cool about Benjamin Bratt, right??
