Be "Largely ignored" but magically voted into office bruhs!
Guerrero?
While very popular he was actually appointed by Congress after the guy who got elected fled the country and was forced into exile by the army.
So...not voted into office.

Plus, he was heavily mixed.
Plus, his image was whitened almost immediately and some references still call him just mestizo.

Plus. Are you really reaching back to one person in the massive social upheaval of the 1820s to argue the status and condition of Afro Mexicans in the 21st century??

man, it really is a small minority and yo, they are HEAVILY discriminated against. I've never been to a country that so blatantly and pervasively espoused "white is right"...I was there a couple months ago and I saw literally ONE billboard that didn't feature a lily white 'latino'...and the woman was only on that billboard because she was a tennis star...and she wasn't even that dark...just not white.

Mexico got a HUGE colour problem. Most of the rich people are super white and most of the poor people are dark skinned and not white, and the poor mestizos are largely ignored.

So they actively try to right this and y'all still complain. Granted it's just a start but it's something, and miss me with the bullshyt. I have family members that are blacker than some of y'all claim to be who have been discriminated against in Mexico.
