Mexicans don’t have soul - WTF u talking bout

 

[Commish]

I think Samoans & Tongans have just as much soul as Filipinos, if not more...

Perhaps any non Black group that embraces Black music & culture to a lesser degree may have hints of "soul" depending in the person..??

Lol I'm Filipino and have zero Spanish blood.

We have Spanish last names because the Spanish friars forced us to take Spanish names to simplify tax collection. They couldn't pronounce last names like Mangayayam. Gonzalez was easier.



To answer OP, us Filipinos can be accused of being culture vultures. I guess it's because we have been more or less African-American/Black adjacent because of military service. My dad was in the Navy and his friends were AA/Black because he didn't fukk with CACs. All my Filipino relatives on the West Coast also hung out with AA/Black kids growing up because of basketball, music classes, worked at the same high school jobs.

Light skinned Asians look down on dark skinned Asians.

Yeah alot of people don’t know this. Alotta dark skinned asians working as basically slaves in the wealthier countries. Saw alot of dark skinned asian workers living in the slums near Dubai and Abu Dhabi for example.

yeah every samoan i've met has been cool as fukk

filipinos are cool for the most part. some of the females are wayyy too white worshipping for my tastes and i've met some filipino dudes. Nothing crazy but if they hang around whites for too long they get "influenced" if u feel me
