[ It should be noted that, in the US, âcholoâ was originally a derogatory term for people with Mexican or mixed ancestry. The word was reclaimed during the 1960s as a symbol of pride and non-assimiliation, and today is associated with both the hip hop and lowrider scenes.

Racial and cultural status, along with social class are reflected in the term cholo itself, which was adopted in California in the 1960s by youth following the pachuco tradition, as a label for that identity (Cuellar 1982). There is a reference to The Cholo in Assault on Precinct 13 (1976), although it is used to refer specifically to a blood oath instead of a Mexican person. 2  In the film Napoleon Dynamite (2004), Nano and Arturo De Silva play characters simply referred to as Cholo No. 1 and Cholo No. 2.
