BLACKS IN MEXICO MAKE UP LESS THAN 1% IN MEXICO @AFRICANASTUDIES

HARDLY EXISTANT

[Gbundles]

Hello all the Bonita la morena's!!

[africanastudies]

Any "liberation" that does not know the history of the Nation, Morelos and the Army of the South made by Afro-descendants, and which liberated La raza de bronce, needs more learning. Do not get mad: study and learn.

[Thejadestorm2012]

NOT LATINO, NOT HISPANIC, NOT AMERICAN AND SURE AS HELL NOT AFRICAN!!!---MEXICAN!!! --MEXICA MOVEMENT.ORG--LIBERATION THROUGH ANAHUAC EDUCATION!!!

[itzihuariquintero]

@Thejadestorm2012 im Mexican, im latina, im hispanic, and if i had african blood in me I SURE IN HELL WOULD BE PROUD TO BE AFRICAN!!!!

[AztecTripleAlliance]

@itzihuariquintero it doesnt make sense to call yourself latina or hispanic (white terms) than call yourself african, not acknowledging your Amerindian blood

[m0renachula704]

There are a lot of black mexicans in the city where I live. They are some of the most beautiful people I have ever seen.

[mykole84]

@ edavismookie25. when i say black mexicans most of them r zambos (black/indian). mexico as a whole is predominatly indian. most people r predominatly indian with either some black r white r both. ther r some whites who have some indian but just becuz indian blood is da strongest mexico is diverse and has chinese people, arabs it like america but the indians r more numerous and black and whites are minorities and black and white genes really just enhance the indian ones.

[honestwithself1]

@mykole84 you explained yourself very well..thanks.

[bamiya]

moigranespiritu, You do not know what you're talking about!

[moigranespiritu]

Actually.. the native americans were never enslaved.. because they preffered death than to be enslaved... They got sent to reservations and stuff like that or treated like second class citizens.. but never enslaved...

That is another clue to the inner quality of the native americans.. both of South america and the north.. they never let themselves be "slaves"... only negroids did..

Interesting...

[bajanboy883]

@moigranespiritu the africans had no choice do u honestly think they would let euros come to africa and chain them up shoot them up kill them stuff them in waiting houses to ship them to the americas on purpose? your a true pendejo if u believe dat da native americans however obviously had a better advantage being that they were aleady on this land

[moigranespiritu]

the negroids were sold into slavery by their own leaders...

why dont you try a little harder... ok?....... :)

[bajanboy883]

@moigranespiritu but the people who actually got sold into slavery never wanted to go into slavery actually so its not considered them letting themselves be "slaves" so yes you need to get it together!!!!! and even if they did sell them into slavery why did the euros just start capturing alll kinds of africans? even the ones in the villages who didnt have no idea? your ignorant

[moigranespiritu]

It does not matter.. since their is always the option of DEATH...

Something that negroids.. very strangelly.. neglected to do under such horrible.. and dishonorable conditions...

that is something that native Americans.. from the North to the South.. could never allow themselves to live under...

The negroids were sold by their chiefs into slavery...

and if anyone is "ignorant" here that is you... for you lack an understanding of basic HISTORY..

The Euros never "captured", they bought them...

[bajanboy883]

not all of the africans where sold there was a number of them who where captured so yeah.... not all the chiefs did that!!!!!! and not all the natives killed theresleves or let themselves die a number of them were treated wrong also... but please dont say negroid you can say african................ but im not trying to put down neither one because i am of african native and euro roots.... i just dont like when one tries to make one group seem better than the other

[lala2329]

@moigranespiritu you reall need to go back and study history, natives were enslaved

[mochaleo10]

It never surpises me how a little bit of knowledge and not the whole truth kills. Everyone wants to talk about slavery in Africa before the Europeans, but nobody wants to talk about the Europeans enslaving the Native Americans (and Hawaiians), but their diseases killed these populations thus promoting the transatlantic slave trade from Africa. Learn more than beyond what the conqueror's history wants you to know!

[moigranespiritu]

Yeah no shit... the media has made of negroids such favorites that they are even trying.. desperately.. to ship them to other countries.... and make them popular there.. that is what the whole regueton or better said "negroton" movement is all about.. that music is made for chimps and has no uplifting value but quite the contrary.. only serves to export to other more culturally together countries.. the apelike behaviour of the negroids and make the masses as inferior as chimp negroid apes....

[deviousMonk]

Olmec left a stone that resembles african features. Could it be that the first Mexicans civilization was African descendants, and not Native American as we know today? Just want to know what other people think.

[budfr]

Los negros son una peste. Que se regresen a AFRICA. De ahi son. Niggers are a plague. they should return to Africa, were they belong.

[mochaleo10]

@budfr you should go too. That's where everyone was descended.

[xleno]

GRACIAS...la Diaspora Africana sigue encontrando eco aun luego de tantos siglos,los pasos ke caminaron nuestros ancestros se encuentran con nosotros hoy,Ellas y Ellos estan en nuestra alma y nuestro ser,en nuestros gestos,musica,arte...desde Chile un abrazo y BLESS

[giltedged]

This is very confusing. There are Afro Americans who say that they are the Native Americans and they came to the Americas. Others say they were always there. And this one wants to stir things up in Mexico.

Remember slavery existed in Africa since times immemorial. Africans sold Africans. The European traders only bought what the Africans sold. Vastly more were sold to Arabs. Slave-trading still exists in West Africa

[mochaleo10]

@giltedged Not to the extent that the Europeans enslaved Africans. African slaves in Africa had rights, could buy their freedom and were slaves because their tribes were conquered. They were not used for free labor to build countries that would extract their wealth and use it to build European and European descended nations. Also, slavery existed in the Americas first when the European settlers enslaved Native Americans but they were dying from European diseases. This also happend in Hawaii.

[happysomeday09]

im mexican and i am NOT racist and its so stupid to assume mexicans are! i love black people and their culture! its very exciting to me. we are truly all victims of racism so i believe blacks and mexicans should stick together. none of this stupid gang mex vs black garbage... its silly.

[StrizzOnThizz]

yea fuck Sur 13 and all the mex gangsters in So Cal killem all!!!!!!!!

[truth2masses]

talk to the mexicans who are doing driveby on blacks to get into mexican gangs!

[MueraTelevisa]

Finally blacks are understanding that the term Mexican do not refer to raze but nationality, this is the nightmare of white pitches.

[1980vince]

@MueraTelevisa why if mexicans are half white, maybe its you nightmare darky.

[MueraTelevisa]

@1980vince Darky ???

You have no idea how many whites in US are actually Mexican or descendants of Mexicans.

Let me give you an example; Thomas Alba Edison son of the Mexican Samuel Alba and I don't remember the name of Ms. Edison but she was German.

Whity <= XD

[AztecTripleAlliance]

@MueraTelevisa these were european immigrants not mexican

[mykole84]

big up to all the black mexicans. it about 10 million afro-mexicans. i hate that they're undercounted.

[cgfm011]

i know right

[edavismookie25]

@mykole84 Wow. That many Afro Mexicans?

[Nubi1321]

blacks have been in mexico since the 1400s.. the first document slave rebellion happened in mexico

[patasjediondas]

yo como mexicano estoy orgulloso de la diversidad de razas que tenemos en nuestro pais. cien por ciento orgullo mexicano.

[africanastudies]

"Black" is in the eye of the beholder.

[chivasho]

i've lived in mexico and i have just seen

one couple of blacks there. they are very rare.

[adeart7]

what part of mexico were you in? i think most of them are in the veracruz area...

[collease123]

english plz

[LeVilageKana]

Hello, I think that today, I have learn something that I didn't really knew. I will not died stuppid: Black people in Mexico. I'm a French Black guy who live in Paris, France. Can somebody give me more information about that?

[RonaldoMexicano]

yes they're are significant black or Afro-Mexican populations in Costa Chica, Oaxaca, Veracruz, and Merida.

[LeVilageKana]

Yes, but do you really think that this blanck people considere theireselv as a Black?

I don't really think so. I'm French black guy and I will have a baby with a Mexican. I don't really want that my baby stay in Mexico because of the racism.

In Mexico like in Latin America, there is a clasification by the color .

[RonaldoMexicano]

Reagrdless where you raise your baby whether it be FRance or Mexico or even USA you will always encounter racist people but that's just inevitable for you will find them all over the whole world. In Spain, some will not accept me because I am not full Castellano and in Mexico some will not accept me because I am not pure Mexican but I still am accepted by many and I live a happy life.

[adeart7]

France is not racist? Many of the African immigrants complain...

[LeVilageKana]

I'm a Black French and I prefer to be Black in France instead to be Black in Latin America.

Yes, off course, racism also exists in France. But, in Latin america, Racism is very hard core for the Black People.

I went in Brazil many time, and I saw that. I went in some places in Rio and people (white and others) were very surprise to see a black man.

Come on, in 2009, in Latin America, there is a hierarchy on the color of the sky.

[adeart7]

Interesting point of view. I would love to visit France! I lived for a time in Benin, west africa. Donc, je parle le francais un peu.

What do you think about racism in the U.S.?

[LeVilageKana]

There is also a racism in US. But US is one of the place in the world where Black people have a very good situation and also a very bad situation.

I went many time in US and I can tell you that, racism is in the both side: You have a black racist people and u also have a white racist people.

What is good in US, a black guy will never lose to go in a white place. In France, the say u can come and when u come, they say they don't need u. But in Latin America, is very hard

[adeart7]

interesting. so you are saying that there are certain places where blacks aren't allowed in france? it's also interesting that you describe the situation of blacks in the u.s. as "good and bad." I can definitely see how you can say that. but, it seems hard everywhere for black folk....

[giltedged]

You are not French. You are African.

[LeVilageKana]

Hey there, I really know my origin and I also know that i'm originally from Africa. You, I think that you should be a poor undergraduate white guy who really think that he is superior to the other people because of the color of his skin.

Just stay here and clean the black ass. You really need that. Poor white honky

[giltedged]

You're a misfit. You're an African in Europe. You can call yourself whatever you want but not European or French.

[LeVilageKana]

I really want to know where do you live and what is your race?

Do you live in America? if so are you originally from America? Do you know who is originally from America?

Poor man Suck my black ass....

[giltedged]

You are, as you say, un negre. You are a misfit in Europe. You do not belong there.

[cmnweb]

Here in Mexico are a lot of african traditions in the State of Veracruz and Guerrero ( Acapulco)

[machaveliswifey]

Eso que bailan al ultimo del video es merengue?

[meatspice]

NO STUPID IT IS CUMBIA

[CrazyClassicalCat]

Hola Profesor esta es sus estudiante Timoteo Catlett hope I spelled that correctly (1150....I think) I'm like half way through this video I recall something about a theory of creation for some Mexicans about their being 'rythms'? I couldn't catch even when I went back. And for the celebration of the dead is this also like for mourning aswell. I know in Japonese they construct similar things sometimes in rememberence of their lost ones. - Timoteo Catlett

[Keylicious410]
