I forgot the name of the president(or was it King Henry Christophe) who wanted to unite the Island?? dont really member but had these niccas not betray Toussaint Louverture, Hispagnola(haiti n D.R) would have been a realization.it actually happened 140 years ago almost .
mexicans aren't latinos, Even Latinos would tell you that.

I've never heard a Latino say they didn't have black blood in them.No. I would call them what they are mulatto or mixed.
My problem with those mulatto Dominicans are when they deny their African ancestry.
Black males using Indian hair? Where?Black Americans are in really no position to criticize Dominicans for self hatred, especially with its billion dollar a year Indian hair industry.
Its just as bad to downplay African ancestry.I've never heard a Latino say they didn't have black blood in them.
It's just when you say it, they are quick to bring up their Spanish ancestry.

Its just as bad to downplay your African ancestry.
Yes some do change the look of their hair but just as much rock natural hair like you said. None of them are going full on weave.Black males have a history of putting all types of chemicals in their hair to make it look other than black. Look at musicians during the 1960s
Even today black men are putting texture altering substances in their hair in order to obtain "waves" which is just a modern day version of the conk folks wore in the 60s.
But thankfully a lot of black males lately have just been rocking the straight ceaser, fro or dreadlocs lately. This era might be the 1970s all over again as far as black men going naturual. Black women however are still on the conk, so much so that it's regarded as abnormal/rare for a black woman to rock her natural texture that grows out of her scalp.
Brazil, Haiti, Columbia, Cuba and Panama say different., DR and PR are alot more mixed with Africans than other latino peoples

White people in Europe don't even think of African ancestry with Hispanics unless they are Afro-Latinos. But most latinos don't have any black in them, DR and PR are alot more mixed with Africans than other latino peoples
People like arod are considered pretty much white like a Sicilian, Bulgarian or any other tan white. My Slav people know were mixed with Mongols, Huns, or Turks but aint nobody gonna say they're Asian, they're [enter country here] nobody says I'm white around the world or im black, that's such an American thing. u are wut country ur from cuz there are large differences in who ur mixed with and what u look like from country to country regardless of race. That's why u have pride in your country, cuz urs has a diff mix than others
I think what a lot people are not understanding is that MOST and Ill put the # at 80% of Dominicans do not deny there AFRICAN roots , most people don't understand the historical and political complexity involved in the Dominican/Haitian relationship. Its much more than just skin color. Are there ignorant Dominicans YES no denying that, but as i said before there is a equal # of ignorant African Americans IF we want to go there.
You can say the same thing about Brazilians , Brazil has the largest Afro descendants population outside of Africa, so yes that means there are more "black" people in Brazil than in america , now i dare you to ask a Brazilian if he is "black" he will say NO but ask him if there is any AFRICAN blood in him he will say yes. Why is that? Because the term BLACK is something that was created here in america (we can argue the why's ) but lets just say it was for all intents and purposes to negatively categorize African Americans and create the racist institutions which we have in place today, they have worked so well in fact that most non-american Africans want nothing to do with being associated as "black" try telling a Jamaican he black or even a Haitian he black, they will say NO they are Jamaican and Haitian, why do you think that is? shyt i have even know African, Ghanaians and Nigerians who will say with a quickness they are not BLACK they are Africans.
