So I was telling my black dominican cousins that they were African....

[tim teufel]

They flipped out on me. Why is it that people can't accept reality? They starting calling me crazy saying not to compare them to hatians. I know we are all mixed in the carribean but if u black as night u can't deny the African roots.

 

[limitedretroog]

Same thing with Filipinos believing they're Pacific Islanders...

 

[falcon4567]

Well I am African but I'm also Spaniard and Native as well. I don't see why I have to be one thing at the expense of everything else.

 

[rico x hood]

But Dominicans ain black tho...

Again

 

[staystrong]

People think being black is a bad thing thats why most people dont want to be called black or african american even though that race is a part of them

 

[Gex the Damaja]

Is there a reward for the Nter that gets dominicans to admit african roots? I don't understand why this seems to be so important to this forum.

I know exactly how Dominicans feel about us and the history behind it,I'm smh at that. I have no problem with people being proud to be hispanic,I just have problems with the ones who act like calling them part black is an insult.

 

[marinadelrey]

what is "black"?


they are of African, indigenous, and spanish descent.


how are they "black"?




black people dont know what black is

 

[antonlavey]

lolol how many times are we gonna have this discussion, black Dominicans are as African as African Americans-A lot of African Americans are mixed with white and Indian but most don't go out of their way to deny their African roots


And lol @ ninjahood, no one said you were 100 percent black, we are saying by definition you are technically part of the black race-there's nothing wrong with being more than one thing

Most people in the Americas aren't 100 percent anything, I'm 102 percent African with a 2 percent margin of error

LOL you're a descendant of West African slaves with Indian thrown in there, by the one drop rule you're black whether you like to admit it or not-African American have "diluted" African blood as well-If you're not "black"/African neither are they
