Get Your **** Straight: ODLH's "Race"

[alliberg26]

You kids are ****ing brain-dead. I was in shock today when I read a post by some idiot who said-and I quote, “ODLH is not Mexican, and he never will be”. I couldn’t believe it at first, but after I finished clearing my eyes, I realized that that ****-sucker was actually being serious.

Y’all don’t know the difference between race, nationality, and ethnicity so I’m a brake it down for ya; make it sound real simple for ya. (By the way, it is kind of sad that/if you don’t know this already)

1) Oscar IS Mexican. What the **** else would he be you dumb ****. American is NOT a race.

2) I repeat, being born in a different country from your parents doesn't mean that transform into another race, ****head.

3) Mexican is NOT a race. It is an ethnic group. Its part of the Latino race, you moron.

4) Oscar is a United States citizen; that doesn't mean he is white and not Mexican because he wasn't born in Mexico.

5) Just to give you an example; Selma Hayek is NOT Mexican. She was born in Mexico, but she is NOT Mexican. Her father is Spanish (Spain) and her mother is Lebanese. Therefore she is half Spanish, Lebanese. She is a Mexican citizen. That is her nationality, not race.

People like David Ortiz, Manny Ramirez, and Tito Trinidad are of the Latino race. Not Black, not Puerto-Rican, not Dominican. Their heritage is African. They were born in their respected countries (PR, DR) but it doesn’t mean that their race is Puerto Rican, Dominican, or Even African (black). They are Afro-Latinos.

Believe me when I say this, there are TONS more white/fair-skinned Puerto-Ricans and Dominicans then there are Black. The Black ones are usually the poorest, so they come to the United States in droves looking for a better life and more opportunity. That is the main reason you see a lot of Afro-Latinos in the United States.

The Latino race is very rich and colorful, and the mainstream has A LOT to learn about us. Just because you see a lot of Afro-Ricans doesn’t mean that every Puerto-Rican has black in them. There are more Afro-Mexicans in Mexico alone then there are Afro-Ricans period. It’s not even close.

Class dismissed.

You are insane..more afromexicans that afro ricans...you must be insane...puerto ricans and cubans always say that but it's not true...I'll bet you can travel all over mexico and not find 1 black person...the theory goes that there are many in veracruz...which is a lie..the only blacks there came from puerto rico and cuba..that is it and the population is almost nonexistent...anyways don't you think with blacks ability to play sports..you would have seen a black mexican at some point..either in baseball,boxing soccer ,running etc....but you don't see them why?...if you look at puerto rico and cubans every sport they have is all blacks.....Mexico is a racist society against skin color and blacks wouldn't last there....in puerto rico and cuba blacks are 85% of the population .. puerto ricans and cubans pretend they are white...WHICH IS FUNNY!!!!!!....by the way selma hayeks mother is mexican ...like cubans,puerto ricans and phillipinos..some mexicans like to pretend they are full white too....it's the latin cultures..skin color means everything .....

I think in Mexician socity there is three divisions of the people.

There is the rich, poor and the third one in middle class but they are vitrually non-existing.

For example North of Mexicio hate the people of the south. because they are different from each other.

have anyone seen those Mexician soap opera. Oscar Dela Hayo look like those rich people in the soap Opera who where poor you could see some mexican soap opera to know mexician part socitey, any way there is most of those guy in soap opera are oscar dela hayo looking like.

Like u said that some mexicans pretend to be fully white, it is also some cubans, puerto ricans, and filipinos, not all.

I have seen a few asians, latinos, and blacks who want to be white. But it is a small fraction. I have even chatted with people in the internet who lives in Hawaii. Because they think live in Hawaii, the think their native Hawaiians. U ask them what they are, they response with i am black, white, asian, latino(choose one) then said half hawaiian cuz they lived there. Somehow it is true they are Hawaiians, cuz they live in Hawaii. But that's not the problem. Their problem is that they think their Hawaiians, as in Polynesians.

Sorry to get out of the topic.

I don't know if I'am late but I found this today while searching for Salsa music

the 1930s, '40s and '50s, Cuban music within Cuba was evolving into new styles derived primarily from son and rumba, while the Cubans in New York, living among many Latinos from Puerto Rico and elsewhere, began playing their own distinctive styles, influenced most importantly by African American music

Salsa's roots can be traced back to the African ancestors that were brought to the Caribbean by the Spanish as ******. In Africa it is very common to find people playing music with instruments like the conga and la pandereta, instruments commonly used in salsa

Rumba is both a family of music rhythms and a dance style that originated in Africa and traveled via the slave trade to Cuba and the New World
