:yeshrug: Ive said this before/had this discussion on here but call a Jamaican , a Guyanese , a Trini etc a black person ( all folks of obvious African descent ) they will say there not black , they will say they are Jamaican, Guyanese , Trini same thing with Dominicans but for watever reason on the coli its an obsession that every Dominican wants to burn there skin off :mjlol:

:yeshrug: see thats the problem everyone goes on personal opinion, u have a cousin who hates being called a black man, i have one who has no problem being called a black man, and for every Dominican who hates being called a black i say there is African american person who will describe themselves as "mixed" before they say there black


Dude, Haitians the same way but we don't get offended but I agree with your point about mixed Americans. bytch name is Latoya and she telling me she only 5% Black. :mjlol:

Your president is gay, your argument is invalid:

It might be ethnically motivated, like in other cases of conflict around the world but not racially. Like I said, according to the DR census 90% of the population is mulato or dark skinned. Stop trying to pull the race card.


Again, most of your people have a problem being called Black. They all say they're Dominicans, which is not a race. The thing is most Dominicans look Haitian and unfortunately there are more Haitian countrymen and uneducated Haitians in the DR than the educated ones. No matter how you slice it. Dominicans is either dark or mulatto.

In all, the thread is more appealing now that we don't have idiots like @Arianne Martell and those other idiot b*stards here spewing nonsense

The DR conducted a census of itself and 90% of ppl identified as black or mulato. Stop propagating bullshyt.

Also, there's another thread in The Root about Hispanics in general considering their race to be Hispanic.

edit: Lol. Brazil got 80 thousand racial categories in their census. every country does things their own way but that doesn't mean they're not proud of who they are
