How does someone"look Haitian"?

I often get told i "don't look Haitian" as if Haitians have a specific "look" and have zero diversity among us.

For real tho. Look at steph curry's mom, she is Haitian. My former supervisor was haitian to the bone and she and her mother were light as steph curry.

1. Why U E-Haitians always sensitive?

2. For a group of ppl , always putting down Haitians. With the pic in the o.p , I can't tell the difference...
yea i know Haitians on average are darker, yet i met alotta mix Haitians that look like mix Dominicans again balancing the shyt out...

>America shows images of Haiti as being all Darkskin.
>Non Haitian / Person sees this and thinks it true.
>Person finally meets actual Haitian and is surprised that Haitian isn't darkskin.
>Haitian gets told you don't look "Haitian".

U know what? i apologize about mentioning Haitians... nikkas stay tearing up. Damn breh. (Y'all Food is good tho)

Every Dominican kid in the pic wasn't dark skin. They were blk, like the average Haitians are blk. Those Dominican kids look Haitian... period.

The beef between y'all don't make sense.

that's a typical Dominican school. We've shared the island for hundreds of years some are practically interchangeable. Like homie said their are light skin Haitians and very dark skin Dominicans. Look at the mess they are going through now with deporting Haitians. Some families have been on the island the east side of the island so long they have no clue what deal is Haiti.

Many Dominicans are obsessed with being lighter skinned. Some will blame it on Trujillo. Which I can sWe the argument. But what came first? The chicken or the egg? Trujillo didn't suddenly come up with these ideas once he got in power. He likely was raised in an environment that promoted such thing.

But while Dominicans and Jamaicans are the ones that are more known for it, this wanna-be light-skinned thing affects many blacks in many Caribbean and Latin American nations. Some far more than others.

And let's not act like black Americans are an exception to this either. Many blacks in the united States use skin lightning products(especially in the 80s and 90s when they were obsessed with curls) even tho people here are more likely to shame people for it

Don't disagree with any of your points. Fact of the matter is Sammy Sosa looks like a goddamned fool.

Black Americans tend to be the ones that are ultra sensitive about anything said about them and interpret everything as "racist" but it's E-Haitians' sensitivity you take issues with???

And no I'm not light skinned, by the way, but often get told i don't "look Haitian" do it's obviously not a dark skin vs light skinned thing. Again, the same people that be quick to call everything racist be the same ones making these racist remarks

Jesus Christ, what the hell !!


He would've aged much better if he had stayed Black.

Look at your idol @Raul

Even at the height of his success I was never a Sammy Sosa fan.
I didn't dislike him, but I was never caught up in that hype machine.

Manny Ramirez and Jose Lima were more my style, even though they weren't Yankees.

That said, it's good that Sosa is helping out those kids.

This can be said about many demographics that are portrayed a particular way in the media. See the perception of black Americans in the media as an example. Doesn't mean you have to drink the kool-aid. Accepting his comment would be like me being surprised that by a black American man not fitting their stereotypes as absent fathers, having been to jail, obsessed with jewelry and white women, etc.

And again, I'm not light skinned by any stretch of the imagination, by the way, but often get told i don't "look Haitian" so it's obviously not a dark skin vs light skinned thing. To give you a point of reference people often come up to me in the streets and say they could have easily mistaken me for Tyler Perry.

Again, the same people that be quick to call everything racist be among the ones who say these racist comments.
