Ryan, would that happened to be that light skinned girl with the light auburn hair? Well, if it is she is black, and darker than my mother...a lot darker than my mother. She obviously doesn't like herself, and think she is better...if she has nappy hair and has to go to the salon..it shows she is black, her nose and skin tone, and the fact that she came with a tan...Ask her, then what is she?
it has nothing to do with liking self, has to do with identification. Hence...Latina equals a descent of Spaniards which is associated with beauty vs Afri... descent of slaves...which is ugly...even if you are light and say afri-descent. The logic transcends the color game played by Afro-Americas which is why Zoe Saldana (dark) claims Latina, claims black publicly cause she gets paid but always got a white boy like ryan by her side. God forbid she has children who look like her
. As far as Sammie...he got MJ disease or wants to look like Dominicans like Alex Rodriguez. Now...we start getting into which party you are invited too or place you can enter. Coming from stateside doesn’t matter because it’s about your wallet…so you cant see the real action. Hence...my older sister n mother can get into all the parties and places on the island while the rest of us are excluded.
I will stop there, could write a book on Dominican BS.
As far as Cuban…I’ll stay on the curve…given the generalizations are popping up as usual on getbig...but i will note that ryan said his friend was a white cuban...probably the child of exiles like my mother's family. the equality movement still got them pissed off in which they dump the hate on their children. Thank god my mom has common sense.
