They are both light skinned, but can they "camouflage" that heritage any less than many Latina women do?

I know it is subjective, but looking at this photo of her, do you think she is in denial?<br /><br />http://tinyurl.com/9msusr9John, NYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03135159557634806040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4713119441078458095.post-61276137079536123002012-09-02T22:51:16.552-07:002012-09-02T22:51:16.552-07:00Hi Reef,
Most of the Latina women I've dated “...Hi Reef,<br />Most of the Latina women I've dated “were” black. Blacker than I am. However, we agree on the same thing regarding the African heritage in Latin America, but because of cultural issues, many of them try to camouflage their African heritage. Others try to “improve the race,” as they call it, by marrying someone as white as possible and encouraging their children marry someone as white as possible to dilute their blackness in future generations. They do this feeling that their children,grandchildren, and great grandchildren will experience less racism, if any at all.<br /><br />I have a black lady-friend in Ecuador, a grandmother, whom I've visited. If you look at her grandchildren, you would never know they have a Black grandma as her children are married to Europeans.W Bill Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06114184381454422387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4713119441078458095.post-75376569332840402162012-09-02T21:38:33.456-07:002012-09-02T21:38:33.456-07:00You should definitely do a lot more posts on this,...You should definitely do a lot more posts on this, as it is a very hot topic on the internet "black men, latina women"<br /><br />But i always find it....ironic...for a puerto rican or Dominican woman to say "dont bring home a black guy" when i hear that Its like Mariah Carey or Vanessa Williams saying to their children dont bring home a black guy. <br /><br />People say, but wait Mariah Carey is actually half black and so is Vanessa Williams ....my point exactly. Puerto Ricans (and especially DOMINICANS) are a mixture of African, Indian and Spanish blood but if they happen to have light complexion, long hair, etc etc...they completely disassociate themselves with their African diaspora and then proceed to LOOK down on people of African descent. <br /><br />If two half black and half white people have children what are those children? and if those children also have children with other mixed children what are those children? the admixture stays the same...it may show up differently in different generations but it does not dilute the fact that the children are still a good percentage black as they are white.
