I just found out about the heated discussions which the trailer provoked!

In my opinion everybody is worth the same, black, white, colored, yellow, red, ... whatever!

Even though I think it's about ethics to be aware about who invented something and who depressed the other.

There is a big part of black roots in the entire cuban culture, but there are also influences of the spanish traditions and influences of the us american tradition in Jazz, Gospel, Funk, Hip-Hop, even Rockn Roll ...

We are very sorry to comment that Macho Crespo Richa died today. He was ill for quite some time but this is a hard time for the family ...

En paz descanse ...

nas said it the best, everytime we talk about "our existance" they consider it reverse racism, whats wrong with being an afro dominican and embracin that? there are different types of dominicans, spanish, afro, etc. everybody is so quick to embrace the spanish side and say that they are from spain but they are dancin to the african drum? but they say noooo im not blk? if u dont claim whats yours can we be treated equally? the "jews" did it. what is so wrong with that?

[nikos papanelopoulos]

[Ranville Thomas]

Adrian give an example please.

[Adrian Khan]

Still said that AFrican Americans hang onto slave rules,but want to talk all sorts of self hating shit to Afro latino's.

[Adrian Khan]

African descent muthafucka.

[Adrian Khan]

How come that only rings out when it's something of African descent.But as soon as it's white,there is no discussion.

This is a very rich culture between ethnic groups: Fon, Nago and Yoruba all with the same ancestry from the empire of West Africa.
