because black latinos have african blood in them and are descendants of slaves. black latinos would not exist without slavery, end of story.Originally Posted by SneakerPro
Also another thing.
My girl has two "black" parents but is lighter than Alicia Keys light and she has brown hair.
We don't call her white because culturally she just ain't so why we gotta call dark latinos black?
lets flip it for a sec. if i asked your girl if there was some white somewhere in her family would she say yeah? i bet my life savings she would.
she wouldn't dodge the issue. she would say yes or no.
if i asked her if she considered herself american what would she say?
and now, how about black?
being black doesn't cancel out other things just like being latino doesn't.
if somebody asks me, i'm pr, i'm black, i'm an american.
none of this i'm pr and black as in pr as a race and black as a race.
the spanish never gave a +$$$ about us.
and a nationality has never been a race. stop it.
