"im not white im dominican"

-every white dominican ive ever met including myself

:manny:

But that's true, even if I appear white, u most like still have African heritage and u acknowledge that..however when I meet a Dominican chick with black skin and black features telling me she's not black I'm like :dahell: that's like me wearing glasses n saying "I'm not wearing glasses"

Actually no.

Black is a race and African American is an ethnicity.

So a Dominican can be black.

Its good for you to know the difference between ones race and ethnicity.

What she means is that amongst Dominicans in the US, Black = Black American

That's why if you ask a Dominican if theyre black theyll most likely say no. If you ask them if they have African ancestry, theyll say yes.

I know the difference. and its good for you to know the context in the response when Dominicans say they are not "Black" for the most part and what I know is that when you ask that, the response is that they are not Black = African American and that they are Dominican. end of story.


The most ridiculous bs I have to endured when I meet AAs is when they ask me if I am Black...there is no confusion to where my ancestors came from because no part of me is "exxotical"...anyways, AAs ask me if I am Black and I tell them no I am Dominican not Black = African American

exactly. any dominican that can look u in the eye and deny that we have african ancestry is an idiot and even other dominicans will tell u he's an idiot. our culture is like 70% african influenced in every aspect from music to food.
