P'urhépecha(Tarascan People) & Black In Latin America Review- Part 2a

Per Wikipedia:

Zambo is a Spanish term (the Portuguese term is cafuzo) used in the Spanish Empire and occasionally today to identify individuals in the Americas who are of mixed African and Amerindian ancestry (the analogous English term, considered a slur, is sambo).

Officially, zambos represent small minorities in the northwestern South American countries of Colombia, Venezuela, and Ecuador. A small but noticeable number of zambos resulting from recent unions of Amerindian women to Afro-Ecuadorian men are not uncommon in major coastal cities of Ecuador. Prior to the rural to urban migration, the Amerindian and Afro-Ecuadorian ethnicities were mostly constrained to the Andes region and province of Esmeraldas and the Chota Valley in the province of Imbabura respectively.

In Mexico, where they were known as lobos (literally meaning wolf), they formed a sizeable minority in the past. The great majority of lobos have now been absorbed into the much larger Mexican Mestizo population. Greater concentrations can only be found in tiny communities scattered around the southern coastal states, including Michoacán, Guerrero, Oaxaca, Campeche, Quintana Roo, Yucatán, and Veracruz, where the country's Afro-Mexicans reside.

I think it's funny, the current U.S. Government determines who's Native and who isn't. My Family (Comanche)surrendered to the U.S Army in Texas in 1874 and got a number from the government. Some of my family left the rez in the 1890's and early 20 century and were taken off enrollment documents, AKA ...Paper Genocide.

That's cool you found your Tarascan blood line .... now we have another Purepecha sister !!!! :) Claim all you Native lines, who care what they think !!!!

I  mean it is possible but i think . That not many spanish people came this far North. I don't really know but think it didn't happen offten. If you see what i mean. It is possible. Rare.

@nativemrv19722 I, too, think it is possible, but very rare. 

[nativemrv19722]

No, i think that is unlikely. Seems more likely if you were in Texas are any where close to Texas. Are even California. Spanish very likely. I think. But people in slavery got mixed a lot from different people. And the dude from PBS i think  he sat out to disprove any blacks with Native American blood. My people i am related to the Cherokee of North Carolina.

@nativemrv19722 Please clarify.  What did you mean by "No, I think that is unlikely?" What is unlikely?

wow 68% Indonesian ? I have a video up that says Cherokee is a form of Asian and an asain guy commented and said that no, they are not because Cherokee people had tall males. i also feel that Latin or Spanish people come from natives as well.
