Same thing with whites, I don't see how they can relate to their european ancestry.


The term African American is also stupid. Just be a damn American - you have no affiliations.

Yea except for the whole slavery thing, unless you thought that was made up. If so carry on.

"Hispanic" isnt a race

He never stated that it was.

Read again, he grouped the terms African American and Hispanic as if they were both races.

Andrew Schulz and Charlamagne Tha God discuss Katt Williams latest arrest, Richard Nixon's administration and their war on blacks, Charlamagne expounds on why he feels he's never experienced racism, and they sit with Marjua Estevez managing editor of "Vibe Viva" and writer Venessa Marco to discuss what is Afro Latino???
