Most Latinos in my area are Mestizos so I can't speak darker Latinos(Moreno). In regards to the Latinos I know, they rather just have a choice of putting Latino/Hispanic without marking "white" under "race".
This thing is, there is white and Black in the latino communities. As you've stated, Moreno. Just when it is translated to english, the opposite of moreno is white, the lighter complexion.Most Latinos in my area are Mestizos so I can't speak darker Latinos(Moreno).

Who do you refer to as the 'model minority'?I just want to invite those of you of the MODEL MINORITY to come in here with an open mind, not the brainwashed version of yourselves, simply so that you can learn about the people that you are trying to imitate, and then kissing UP to.
I am not talking about Black people. We were not allowed to become a model anything. Check the first page on who got what in regard to land and freedom in america, and then why.Who do you refer to as the 'model minority'?
Yes, clearly you're not referring to Black people. If you're referring to segregation and the idea that it was "a choice". Yes, I am aware that it was not a choice.I am not talking about Black people. We were not allowed to become a model anything.

If I have stated that I am not talking about Black people, then I must be talking about everyone else, all that were greeted by the Statue Of Liberty and then other forms by having a CHOICE in the matter.Yes, clearly you're not referring to Black people.

Since you mentioned Model Minority, I figured you were referring to a specific minority ethnic group.
Ahh, ok.If I have stated that I am not talking about Black people, then I must be talking about everyone else, all that were greeted by the Statue Of Liberty and then other forms by having a CHOICE in the matter.
The model minority are any of those that have opportunity to live with at least a modicum of white privilege, just as long as they refuse to identify with the oppressive circumstance of being Black.
That's I why I made a distinction between "Mestizo" (lighter complexion) and "Moreno"(darker complexion) to clarify that I grew up with the former and not the latter.This thing is, there is white and Black in the latino communities.

Cool.That's I why I made a distinction between "Mestizo" (lighter complexion) and "Moreno"(darker complexion) to clarify that I grew up with the former and not the latter.
i’m japanese but born and raised in hawaii. it’s a little different here so i never grew up wanting to be white. where i’m from, white people are the minority. where i’m from, we had kill haole day where locals would beat up white kids they didn’t like (they don’t do that anymore - now it’s a hate crime).I just want to invite those of you of the MODEL MINORITY to come in here with an open mind, not the brainwashed version of yourselves, simply so that you can learn about the people that you are trying to imitate, and then kissing UP to.
Watched a great PBS documentary last night called Exhumed
It's about the history of zombies and zombie films but it ties everything back to racism and the racist depictions of Voodoo and other traditional religions
It might be on Amazon Prime as well
Monstrum | Exhumed: A History of Zombies | PBS https://www.pbs.org/video/exhumed-a-history-of-zombies-ovvtqc/
In this new one-hour Halloween PBS special, Dr. Emily Zarka will deconstruct some of the most significant moments in zombie popular culture over the last two centuries to reveal what these creatures say about us.
It's time to reclaim what's rightfully ours, because these mofo's want it badly.D deleted
Thanks for this,
It was good. Most of those older films I hadn't heard about but it doesn't surprise me they used them as tools of misinformation. (That is what we do here).
I liked that they gave the breakdown of VooDoo vs. VoDou.
Also liked how they spoke on how most people have a negative opinion on it and how it has been portrayed to most of us.
I just had a convo with someone recently about this so I will share it with them too.
I know KHUFU will love this visual
