Asian director “Juelz” over lack of Afro-Latinos featured in “In The Heights” movie.

[BaileyPark31]

It’s pathetic, how much these people want to be accepted.

and notice how they always gotta pronounce “Latina” with an accent.

La-teeee-nah

 

[Ahadi]

There was a lot more brown skin latinos in the Broadway play.

 

[Wild self]

Where is @skeetsinternal with his shyt? Or @BujuBoombastic ?

We need opinions from other (black) Caribbean people about racism in the DR.

 

[ORDER_66]

I'm gonna let them have this one, I agree it should be alot more darker skinned latinos representing washington heights in this movie but Im not the casting director...
this is something latinos has to face about themselves...

 

[Remote]

If see acts of discriminationnor racism, call it out. Looking the other way is just cowardly.

I guess so.
I mean if this was a movie about Mansa Musa with a bunch of Scandinavians I would agree with you.

But I don’t give a shyt about In The Heights.

 

[Bunchy Carter]

This guy has so much Anti-Black hate inside of him, this nikka was so mad he misspelled Brown

 

[Collateral]

First and foremost fukk that moist ass movie. Don’t nobody wanna see that shyt in the first place. Secondly, folks that aren’t even from NYC shouldn’t be in here talking about complexion dynamics that the citizens may or may not experience. Not every darkskin Latino is on that “mi no black” shyt that y’all love to run with. Most Hispanics that originated from the islands acknowledge their black genes. I’m not caping for them that’s just the reality of it. The ones that be on that tip move down to Florida or somewhere else. It’s too many ADOS/Island/African black folks out here to play that fukk shyt wit out here. Look at the Latinos out on the west coast and southwest. You have legit altercations revolved around race out there between blacks and Mexicans. Show me examples of that happening out here involving blacks and ricans or dominicans? Once again I’m not caping for those folks, but as a whole, they aren’t as racists as you folks like to paint the picture of.

 

[SAINT]

You guys are so confused smh

If dominicans were truly racist against people bc of the color of their skin, we wouldve in a civil war in the country for the past 60 years. Most dominicans are brown-black skinned, the beef with Haiti back in the day had nothing to do with the color of their skin. We are on the same island yes buy haiti is basically a foreign country. Different Language, Different Religion, Different Culture. It's tribalism, dominicans don't hate other dominicans because of the color of their skin, only in the coli people really believe that

You'd be surprised. A lot of teenagers nowadays listen to jazz music and say that the japanese make the best music. Whenever you remind them that ADOS created jazz they get mad and say its a lie. Same goes for these weirdos who listen to "lofi hip hop". Lofi hiphop is just smooth jazz from the George Benson area, but these white/Asian kids think that they created something original

Are yall making up shyt now . Who are you around or talk to would say this? Most of those nerds don't even listen to jazz anymore.

 

[GoldenGlove]

We boycotting now or nah?

 

[ORDER_66]

We boycotting now or nah?

What is there to boycott???

If they are really that stupid, ignorant and uninformed then just show them this film by Ken Burns:

 

[old boy]

Haiti must be a figment of my imagination then.

and then nowitzki said to seinfeld: "nikka what holocaust?!?"


goddamn they can live a lie like dream & riri lawdhamercy
