Ughhh, all this talk about Dominicans, Puerto Ricans or Hispanics period either being or appearing to be Black or White is just stupid ! Because all Latino heritages link back to Africans(black), Europeans(white),Natives, & * Spainards due to slave time & etc. So either way you put it some where along the line there’s a little bit of all of that in us. & also the color of your skin doesn’t decide what you are, Us hispanics look very Bi-Racial.
“Half of my roots is Dominican”. This is a line Fabolous says in Street Dreams album. I believe it’s track 2.
is that the song, “not give a fuck”?
In DR there are many blacks as well as mulatos and white people with blue eyes . We are a mix of African Indios and People from Spain. just because ur black does not means you are African American. Don’t b ignorants.
Dominican is a nationality, not a race !! And in dominican republic there are black people, so he’s still black, even if he’s american and dominican !!!Neverthless, he can have mixed blood from his dominican’s side.
Fab IS Dominican & Black. An individuals race cannot be determined by merely looking at their skin tone. Skin tone is a deception. Just as others have said pertaining to this topic: Dominicans come in all colors. Look at baseball players, take a trip to the Republic and see for yourself. The DR is a melting pot of so many different cultures, skin tones, and ethnicities, it is foolish for one to say a person such as Fab cannot be partly Dominican. Even Fab has stated his race. It’s a shame ignorance is still so common.
