Los Vendidos is a play/story written by Luis Valdez. This story was a interesting and entertaining story especially towards the end. Its about a man Honest Sancho who is selling 3 different robots the Farm Worker, Revolucionario and the Mexican-American. Honest is trying to sell the robots to people and tells them all the advantages and disadvantages that each robot has and that some robots are better then the other. When he gets to the Mexican-American he says that the robot is the best worker of the 3. He tells them this because it is a stereotype that Mexicans are the hardest working people in the world because thats all they do. The buyers become very interested in the robot but then they see that he has a bad temper which is another stereotype of Hispanics. At the end of the story the good part comes and you see that the 3 robots are actually real people and Honest is the only robot of the group. So the story was pretty much about a good scam.
