Barbie is ma dumb not every Hispanic has black in them. In my country you barely see blacks, specially in south America,excluding brazil. If you meant carrebeans den it makes more sence.
Actually, Hispanic is a word to define the people of native spanish language, and Latinos is a word to define the people from Iberian Peninsula. American people use these words to define people with dark skin from latin america, what is completely wrong. Central America had a big immigration of africans and europeans, 90% of people from that continent are mixed. The black population in The Caribbean Sea is enormous, much more than white. An example: Rihanna is from Barbados, a country localized in Caribbean Sea, she’s black but her family is denifly mixed with native indians and whites europeans. Fat joe is a mixed white, he has black and native indian in his background, what makes his skin looks more yellow than white. Please guys, stop use “hispanic” and “latino” to describe mixed people from latin america, that’s totally wrong.
You guys are all idiots. Races don’t exist. There is not Black race, White race, Native Taino Race. Go to college. Furtheremore, a race is different than an ethnos. Take a biology class then take a damn anthropology class. There are no “Black” features. Dark skin, full lips, etc are not African features. They’re features that are found in different parts of Africa. Somali people, in general, look quite different than folks from Ghana, etc. In and around the US, the features of most folks considered “black” are similar to those of west and central africans. There are more of what most Americans would consider as “black” in Latin America as there are in the US. Many Puerto Ricans, Cubans, Dominicans, etc. have some African ancestry even if some of them are ashamed to admit it. They are quite similar to black Americans, man of whom do not acknowledge or are unaware of their European ancestry.
Every Body Get a dictionary, ok got one go to the word n$%^%r and you will see that it says a low down dirty person, so this does not mean an african- american, next the word nigga is just a knockoff of the word n$%^%r, i dont see much of a difference either way the word was used to denounce and degrade the african-american culture, people can say what they want but i am not a N$%^%$r or anything of the sort of course i know plenty or people who are and not a single one of them is of the african american race, but overall what ever race or ethnicity we are all people let us try and get along without the use of derogatory names
oka. for all of yaw who keep sayy that hispnics are this in that..blah blah blah..thats true their black. BUT.., nigga is for full AFRICAN AMERICANS ONLY..! the word nikkah came form american afriacan slaves. most of the peole that are mixed with p.r. cuban d.r ….have afraicn(thoses who came from africa) but wasnt in america. so yes i du get offened when this non full black person use the word.
