wait so is ok to be african-american, but is not ok to be afro-latino???? wth!! so if an afro-latino cant be latinos then african americans cant be americans point blank!

oh my god is the question for real. LATINOS THAT LOOK BLACK BUT ARE SPANISH?

SPANISH PEOPLE ARE FROM SPAIN LIKE AMERICANS ARE FROM AMERICA. JUST BECAUSE PPL SPEAK SPANISH DOESN'T MAKE THEM SPANISH

AS FAR AS THEM LOOKING BLACK. THEY JUST DON'T LOOK BLACK THEY ARE BLACK. BLACK LATINOS, AFRO LATINOS, BLACKS BORN IN LATIN AMERICA:

LIKE AFRO-AMERICANS. BLACKS BORN IN NORTH AMERICA. blk latinos aint spanish just like blk americans arent english

RACE NATIONALITY ETHNICITY

3 DIFFERENT THINGS

Hispanic/Latino what it means. Hispanic actually was the name of Spain. Look up Roman Hispania and Spanish is based of Latino. Example Bella is the same meaning in Italian and Spanish said differently though. Bell A and in Spanish Bella is said more like this bay a the 2 LLs don't make a L sound and sound more like a ya. Look up the history of Spain or Roman Hispania on wikipedia

Is Hispanic Latino does refer to a specific race.

"I remember hearing from a friend of mine a few years back that Celia Cruz who is originally from Cuba being played more in Brazil than in her native land of Cuba.How is that possible?And Cubans being divided by complexion.Afro Cubans segregated from so called regular Cubans.The World is just messed up period.Those boxes they would have you fill out to state what race you are "Are ridiculous"!Migration and Slavery changed that centuries ago!It's foolish!But racism is too!""

IDIOTS!! they don't know that most of our culture as latinos is amaizing influeced by africans??...just hear the latin music...my god!!

getmoneystayreal... I feel sorry for you my friend.

You're just angry because you live in a segregated society like the USA and you're trying to spread your hate to the rest of the world. Love diversity and you feel better about yourself. I'm Dominicano and we are the mix of Tahino, European and African. Your people lives in the USA, my people are Latin-Americans. Take it as a life lesson.

Wow, Let me break it to you ! Afro Latinos are refferring to those Latin Americans of black African descent. And yes they are Spanish speaking and are fully Latino while at the same time black!

It is just like if you were to say African American. Americans of Black Descent and they are English speaking !
