Afro Latino pride, yes you can be both

[Bawon Samedi]

Begs the question tho

Are quebecekers and those from the ABC islands and those that speak French Creole in anglophone islands Latin too

Canada was taken over by the British so they are not apart of LA. Those french speaking islands are apart of LA.

Um... No. New Orleans does not represent the USA slave system. Like I said most slaves were taken directly from Africa due to needing certain skill. Interesting you bring up South Carolina when the Carolinas and Georgia for the most part like I said in another post took slaves directly from the Rice Coast of West Africa due to needing those slaves for rice cultivation. You were NOT getting slaves with skilled rice cultivation from tge Caribbean who were mostly use to the chopping sugar canes.

Yes, SOME slaves were moved in between plantations but they were not the majority.

Senegambian peoples, many of whom were Muslims, were some of the first enslaved Africans brought to America. Many of these Senegambians were familiar with rice cultivation and as European settlers experimented with rice in the 17th century, these Senegambians passed on their knowledge, thus shaping the development of rice cultivation in America. Thereafter, planters in South Carolina, Georgia and Louisiana preferred enslaved Africans from Senegambia because of their experience in rice cultivation. This would explain in part why Americans imported a relatively large proportion of Senegambians. In French Louisiana, a captain was instructed "to try to purchase several blacks who know how to cultivate rice.

Like I said slaves in America were needed for their SKILL and thus imported directly from Africa.

I am not exactly sure what you are objecting to, but it is pretty clear that slaves were sold between plantations in the Caribbean and the USA. I am not sure what you were stating about New Orleans either, but New Orleans was the largest slave market in the USA in the 1850's.

Isn't French a Latin language? People need to understand that Latino is not exclusive to Spanish speaking people. Latin America=romance languages(French, Spanish, Portuguese) of the New World and thus "Latin America." Brazilians are also Latino since they speak a Latin language. Haiti is not only apart of Latin America but was the FIRST Latin American country.

That would suggest those West African and central african French speaking nations are Latino..never heard that mentioned before.

Did I not say Canada was conquered by the British?

Even if NO was the largest slave market my point still stands that it doea NOT represent the whole of the USA slave system which mostly imported directly from Africa.

Um...? Latin America?

 

[brother walt]

Does this apply for white Hispanics as well?

I know I have some black in my ancestry. Especially on my dad's moms side but not in recent generations. But as a white Hispanic, am I required to pick a side also?

Do I need to contact the white congregation and inform them of my pending free agency?

@Bless't and @VegasCAC gonna need to make me an offer.



Although I won't mind listening to offers from the other congregations.

What does that have to do with the definition of Latino

 

[3rdWorld]

Latino = Latin language speaking country in Latin America

Makes no sense..you all said French speakers are also Latino, now it's exclusive to the America's.
