  • Black people should have never been brought to the Americas

  • great video Adam thanks on behalf of all Colombians.

  • @chsn09 Besides! What the fuck do you think this woman is discussing right now on this video! But hey, if you don't claim your African heritage so be it! I mean who wants to be an african anyway, right?

  • I heard a group of latina girls popping shit at a morena one time and I could see the hurt on her face! They were going in on that girl in spanish about her hair and her nose when in all actuality she was way sexier! They thought I didn't understand and she just kept looking @ me like she was embarrassed but with a little laugh! But I understood every word!

  • @chsn09 keep it real! Its no secret african descendant people all over are hated the most! And every african descendant whether they claim african heritage or not knows it! So fuck all of that bull shit! My wife is colombian. 13 years and I'm AA! and I speak spanish! I hear the derogatory terms used towards the african features of latinos when the speak spanish and believe that I don't understand!

  • @chsn09 its similar to the "tragic mulatto" saga! Some can pass for white until others find out who their real people are! And like I said I don't mind if you don't want to be considered an african descendant! But the ones who are not ashamed!

  • @bolostrange Also, so how are those ppl you call Afro Latino not claiming theor ancestry if they don't consider themselves to be Afro Latino?

  • @bolostrange It depends on ones definition of what an Afro Latino is! You say ppl 'that you call Afro Latino sometimes don't claim their African ancestry but how do you know that person is an Afro Latino? Think about it, if a fair skinned person such Benjamin Todd or August Wilson were walking down the street, ppl might take them for being white, but they don't identify as white, they consider themselves black! Are they not claiming their European ancestry?
