My mother is Italian-Brazilian, my father is African-Brazilian, in Brazil I am considered "mixed"- I live in Germany now and people here describe me as Black. And an American friend says that I am a Latino. Why people are so concerned about my ethinicity?

@danielcabesi - It depends on how you take it. They may be admiring you, but you sound like you're too sensitive. Just like some people actually get insulted when you ask them about their accent. Also, the last time I checked, Brazilians were a combination of Amerindians, Europeans, Africans and Asians who spoke Portuguese. I wonder how your American friend came up with Hispanic since they all speak Spanish.

@danielcabesi - Latino? LMAO!! Your friend don't know much. The last time I checked, Latinos speak primarily Spanish. While Brazilian People speak Portuguese.

wtf , she is not black she is mixed, As I used to say white and black people are so stupid and ignorant in this subject

[americanpatriot00]

@Paulwhiteshark - NEWS FLASH! To be "black" means to be mixed. If a DNA Genealogy Test was given to a Black Person who's parents were by American standards back, the results would always show African Blood, some degree of European Blood, and in some rare cases, Native American Blood.

Mr. Rock was absolutely with his concluding statements...it's interesting how what he said then was radical, but now that time has progressed and persons have become more learned, informed, more aware, and introspective/reflective...his statements are positively 100% grounded in reality.

This lady doesn't look white at all. She looks rather mixed.

What I don't understand about Phil when he said,"...could you call it racsim?" when the lady born from two light-skinned partents expressed how her father was subjected to verbal/blatant racism by caucasian & retalitated back. The hammer, when the male said, racism is an institution...we (Blacks) aren't not racist.The audience moans. I wonder how many Whites in the audience have Black friends, & if so, do they refer to them as ..Mrs/Mrs so & so...who's Black & simply not by their name?

[sahranadejda]

@danielcabesi because we live in discriminative society!

[blacroze132]

@americanpatriot00 they might be racist against their white side

[lumpymallows]

@xreddragonx Because genetics and facial feature recognition have grown more sophisticated since the 90's.
