Cuban people are tri racial.
no, most Cubans are either very white or very black, with some being mulattos. Her had is part Afro-cuban though
Tri racials are undefined. Her dad is part afro but also native cuban and spanish :)
Her dad looks fully Spaniard: http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/multimedia/archive/00035/t2_leon_72181686_35047b.jpg
Saying Cubans are triracial is like saying Americans are triracial.. equally as stupid. Cuba has a large white, black, and mulato population… people with visible Indigenous descent are rare in western parts of Cuba and more frequent in the east, but still NOT the majority among mixed people.. only in two provinces maybe. So most Cubans are indeed Mulatos, not triracials but with a large white minority and a significant black minority.

her dad is ambiguous looking, IMO he’s not 100% Spaniard.
She looks Armenian or Assyrian.
imo she looks more iraqi or iranian
She looks European.. not Middle Eastern at all, Mediterranean Middle Easterners rarely look like European ones with the exception of Lebanese and Turkish ones. More European looking Iranians tend to resemble Eastern European people..
You need to get out more.
Most Middle Eastern women, especially Syrians, Lebanese, Kurds (or those from the Levant and Northern Mesopotamia) look exactly like this young woman.
God, what a stupid name
She looks very italian.
no, she’s exotic to be just Italian, because of her father who has an interesting look. He looks a bit like Joaquin Cortes who is Gitano (Gypsy)
Lourdes’ grandfather Silvio is still living.
