    I know he Puerto Rican, but how come he look different from most Puerto Ricans I see? Most Puerto Ricans I see are light skin, but Trinbidad aint.


    Is Tito mix or sumthing?
    That was one ******est questions I have ever read..

    Puerto Rico imported people from Africa as ****** to use them for Sugarcane Plantations just like every island owned by Spain in the 16th-19th century. Puerto Ricans vary from colors Red, Black, Brownish, Tan, and White.
    Spanish mixed with Tiano and African is basically the mixes you will find in the Carribean islands of Puerto Rico, Cuba, Dominican Republic. Not so much in Haiti because the French owned them and The Haitians(Africans) revolted and took over their side of the island and Ran the French out. After that They took over the Dominican Republic side of the island and held it for 11 years and the Haitians there also threatened Cuba aswell.

            Black people refering to African Americans can have straight hair living in a warmer climate it doesn't really matter where a African American can live But they probably have some sort of mixture somewhere in their lineage 1/3 of African Americans have Native Americans mixed in them. It just depends on Genetics

              Puerto Ricans can be any color.
              Puerto Rico was originally part of Hispanola - now the D.R.(where Columbus landed). The island was inhabited by Natives. As the spanish settled Latin American and brought ****** with them each island mixed. Ricans are black and spanish with some native. Like Cubans, black and spanish. Ricans, Cubans, Dominicans can black/spanish or black/indian or all three or spanish/indian. Just to clear that up.
              Remeber Jorge Luiz Gonzalas, He looked like a black man from Harlem, but he was as Cuban as Castro.

                I've been to Puerto Rico. They have both "black" and "white" races there. Latin is a just culture. You can be black or white and hispanic.

                    Puerto Rico has African roots, so thats why you have your ocassional darker tones. Same with Mexico, it has European roots; why some natives of Mexico have green eyes or pale skin. (e.i. Juan Manuel Marquez, Rafael Marquez)
