Let’s see how @Rhakim turns a blind eye to this. Black Americans are surely imagining anti blackness from Hispanics I would be curious to see @No_bammer_weed take on this as well. Y’all are liberal to a fault and I’m someone that will NEVER vote republican

Casta Paintings were a series of paintings created in the late 1700s. They were painted for the general public of Spain to show them the racial diversity and mixing of the people in the “New World”. There are individual paintings as well as a large painting by Ignacio María Barreda that has panels showing all the different “types of mixing” in one work. There were twenty-two classifications depicted (Bustamante) and under each panel there is an inscription with the “official name” of each racial group. Each panel represents a family, a mother, father and child all together in a domestic settings the position of the panel also indicates their position in society is based on what it is in the paintings, and thus unmovable or unchangeable. (Guzauskyte, 175). The paintings show mixtures of 3 main races: Spanish (White), Native and African (Guzauskyte, 175) .The background objects are almost as important as the people themselves as they represent the status of this particular race. Couples that have a Spanish or white mother or father tend to show the highest status of wealth with very nice clothes, nice domestic objects surrounding them and in some paintings a sign of education through a chalkboard or books. Other couples, particularly those with people of African descent are shown in a simpler setting and at times demonstrating racist troupes. In one painting with a white husband and African woman, the woman is portrayed as violent and the man as innocent. These paintings show the different racial mixtures in Latin America but the objects used in the paintings are what truly should be focused on as they tell us the status of each group according to the artist (Liebsohn and Mundy).

There were other issues as well with the Casta System that called into question its effectiveness. In the book Purchasing Whiteness: Pardos, Mulattos, and the Quest for Social Mobility in the Spanish Indies, Ann Twinam discusses the ways in which the system was flexible and how people could move within it. She specifically discusses the decree “Gracias al sacar” which would allow people to purchase whiteness in exchange for a higher social standing. This allowed people of other racial groups who were wealthy enough to gain a higher social standing despite being mixed race or another race. It is an interesting caveat for this “social hierarchy” that previously seemed to be set in stone however there were not many cases of people purchasing a higher social standing. The program was not very well publicized so few people were aware it was an option. This looks to be a way to prevent social movement while also making it seem like it is an option and the playing field is more equal than it is. In addition to this, those who did attain a higher social status because of the decree often did not speak out against the system. This meant they left behind those in their own social class furthering the power of the Casta system (Twinam).

Sistema de castas

The people that Hispanic America is forming in a somewhat disorderly manner, yet free of spirit and with intense longings on account of the vast unexplored regions, can still repeat the feats of the Castilian and Portuguese conquerors. The Hispanic race, in general, still has ahead of it this mission of discovering new regions of the spirit, now that all lands have already been explored.
