      Quote(what do you call Afro-Cuban ?)

      I guess you call them a Cuban. The thing is, my sister -in-law is half Cuban/ Half Salvadoran . She says her Cuban father is dame near as black as the ace of spades(so she says he’s black). Her Salvadoran side also has African blood from a great grandfather who was mulatto

    She’s pretty, she definitely has that Afro-Latina look and identified herself as Latina on her show Turned Up when she went to a Latina awards show.
