More and more Latinos are Embracing their "Whiteness"

[GiGi]

not really.cause most black folks are concentrated in large urban areas thus you are more likely to run into black folks than the 12% number might suggest. ain't alot of tourists going to north dakota.

The implication by the poster whom originally responded to @beanz was that I could not possibly have interacted with as many different nationalities of afro-Latinos. In HIS world (NYC/Harlem?) it was highly unlikely to interact with Afro-Salvadorians or Afro-Mexicans. However, I am from Los Angeles and my environment/background is completely different therefore affording me with far more opportunities to meet a more diverse population of Latinos.

I'm Paraguayan, and the only Afro-Paraguayans I've seen were mixed kids here in the USA, 3 total, my child included every other one I've seen is mestizo or are straight white or Asian (lots of Euro/Asian immigrants there). Sad thing is the word "Indio" is commonly used as a slur even though most of the country is part Native and speak Guarani (the native language)

@GiGi

I'm sure you have met an Afro-peruvian, Paraguayan, salavadorean or 2..but like I said, it's RARE. not calling u a liar, but u said "quite a few" which implies u have met a significant amount. I'm not the only one that would think that unlikely.

There are no circles.

Unless the rich whites are marrying hispanics they wont ever be able to fully embrace their whiteness.

Now look how often that is.

A few aint enough to change shyt.

There is no hate. There is just truth.

I got my own place, my own car and a descent job. My life is good.

Unlikely for someone like you perhaps but not for someone like me. The Latino population in SoCal is far more diverse than in NYC. Also, LA is very spread out and we tend to traverse different areas of the city (and greater LA area in general) more than NYers.

ur in fukkin new mexico. DEAL WITH IT

 

[Blackout]

It would be interesting to see how mexicans deal with the people in their own group who want to claim white and claim america over mexico and mexican culture if they were to get greater in number.

Of course they're going to embrace their white side, i'm pretty sure if Asians and Blacks had an option to choose white they'd do it too.

Just face it, we're conditioned by a euro centric society to believe that light is attractive,safe,beautiful and that dark is ugly,negative,bad,dangerous etc.

People can't help themselves because they're brainwashed like robots.

You know how you show weakness, by showing emotions, making more enemies than necessary, cutting ties to people that have not wronged you, making generalized statements that do more harm than good. You can have any type of feeling in this world but you should never let the world (or your enemy) know it. Everyone needs friends/connections, and if you think a group that has "no friends on earth" will succeed on our own (in the world we live in when you're freaking own will sell you out ), *Boris DIaw* I cannot have a conversation with you *Boris Diaw*. And are you seriously saying "Mexican/Caribbean or South American Latinos" should be looked at as our enemy?

Man shut yo stupid ass up.

I built with more Haitian that you probably ever met.
