@stephaniekreimerman So glad that people are actually having these tough conversations 🙌. As a latina I am glad that you are talking about the issues that many like to dismiss.
I think i just found a gem of a channel! Although I'm not hispanic (i am Brazilian) im still a latina, and i appreciate your perspective and that you're making content that supports important movements 💖🙌
My boyfriend(LM) and I(BW) are trying to discuss race relations more in our relationship and in our lives and I’ve been looking for ways to convey my thoughts to him. Your video is definitely a great way to start. You addressed all the points that I have been trying to drill into his head 😅 Thank you so much!
Yes yes yes these conversations need to happen! As a white Latina with one side of my family lighter and the other darker I’ve heard the colorists comments. My mom always told me to be grateful for being white passing, but I can tell that comes from her own insecurities about her skin color. Whenever she tells me this I tell her my skin gives me privilege but it doesn’t benefit me in a practical sense. I remind her that her skin and eyes have melanin that protects her from the sun! I tell her to see the blessings god gave her because I know when I get older my skin won’t look half as good as hers. The anti blackness also needs to end. I hear it the most from my older relatives sadly it is much harder to change their minds. I remind them that you can’t judge someone without ever speaking to them. I tell them you wouldn’t want someone to stereotype you based on how you look so why would you do that to someone else knowing it is unfair. The conversations need to begin in our families from the youngest kid to the oldest grandparent.
So so powerful what you just said! But it’s very true! It’s difficult to get through to elders because the world they grew up in they were taught these ideologies as if it’s something natural. It’s hard to unlearn but it’s necessary to have those conversations. Thank you for sharing your experience💖
Ariel L...If your mom is melaninated how does that make you white? There are plenty of black people specifically back in the day that were white passing and some of them used it to their benefit, but they were still black, and this sounds much like your case.
Wtf Latinos are proud of being brown bro. No one is anti black. Anti criminal is what we are. 19 black children dead from black on black crime yet no blm but when a criminal gets shot oh blm ready to exploit for money. Ariel sorry man but i think your story is full of it. When do Latinos accept no for an answer. I'm 2nd generation and we worked our butts of f and no one said no because we're brown. We're men for hard work. That's why we prosper. Stop being a victim and start being a victor. Brown poeple are full of strength and prideful... you want to get by with victimhood. Wtf lol you need a hug
I'm black/Mexican. In the black community you have colorism too it's blacks darker than me that give me the cold shoulder because I'm shade lighter. My dad took me to Mexico to visit so I can see my Grandma and I remember watching Novellas in Mexico and Arizona I was like wow Novellas have a lot white Latinos I just recently started Telemundo and Univision to get to know my other half I even watched Caso cerrado lol. But yeah this world is so White washing traumatizing too
You made all the points I would have ( and do ) make to the people closest to me. I think that Latinxs should care about BLM because like you said tu lucha es mi lucha. This is a human rights issue centered around racism. HOw am I Not supposed to CARE?
My great-grandfather was a wealthy Spaniard from the mountains of Asturias, a sanctuary founded for Christian nobles and the only region in Spain never conquered by the moors, and he is not blonde hair and blue eyed. He was an international news correspondent and hotel owner who had hotels paid for in diamonds and sapphires all over the world including Mexico. In fact, that is him in my avatar. Most wealthy Spaniards are not blonde with blue eyes. He is celtic and celts are known for brown or dark hair.
So Amerindian tribes in latin america shouldnt link up with those in north america because in the US they would be considered latino and not native american? lol
So true I'm half black and native I'm bless to come from a family that has many different skin tones in it. We where also raise to stick together as a family and as a race. As a kid I was always told that know matter what you have or where you go in life if your own people turn on you then you have nothing that's not to say you should not be there for others you should always do what's right. The said thing is that the Latin and black community are the largest group in the U.S and if we where to pull together in the U.S we would be the power house in this country. But because we both have a group of fools who either think there white or just not been proud of who they are there hurting both of are communities. Mr. X said it best the biggest threat to are community is our self take a look white people don't have to do any thing we're doing it our self.
What it is, is that Central & South America and the Caribbean has been colonized since the 1400s. And Latin American Spaniard and other descendants of other European groups still control that region of the world to this day. They also, mixed up their lineage more so than what has happened in the US.
Interesting , I walked away from Latino community along time ago. And I embrace my American identity. I didn't like the anti blackness in the Latino community. But it good to see young people facing these issues and having a discussion
@@jaktil9246 with Latinos? It was positive for the most part . I suspected they were racist when I was young. So lean in more into American culture. At the time American music and tv and movies were better than the Spanish ones. And when I was going up in the early 80"s the Latinos that show on tv were white Latinos . Which I not. So there was a disconnection. But on a one to one dealing with Latinos. They were cool with me . They just didn't know I was Latino on first contact.
@@godzillamegatron3590 so do they treat the afro latinos way differently then black Americans and why do the afro ones have so much anger towards black Americans
@@jaktil9246 Latino are nationalistic. If you're Mexican then you're Mexican. If you're Puerto Rican then you're Puerto Rican. They might treat you different if you are not their nationality. But once you start speaking Spanish , then it all good.
I see your POV, about the early days of the Spanish Empire. But not all Latinos can trace their ancestors to the early Spanish colonial days. Many of today’s Latin Americans have immigrant European, middle eastern and Asian ancestors who only arrived in South America in the late 1800s to early 1900s.
In South America, the Divisions between countries by Human Phenotypes is very common, they do not have a Community as such because you can Find Mixed Black Whites except in countries where they are very homogeneous like Peru but what happens is that they are very different things and It is not that people become indifferent but that not everyone thinks about Equality rights.
I dont agree with you about we haven't suffered racism to that of black people. Historically, we have and we still are. There are women and men who are lynched, forcibly kicked out of their homes, hunted down and all so yeah we have thats why its important that we stick together.
I love your channel! I just wanted to ask: do you think USC is a better environment for black students? I always get the impression that the UC system caters to their white/asian majority. Private schools seem more financially generous and welcoming. Am I right?
Hi! I can only speak for my own experience at USC as a hispanic student, but I recommend that you ask a black student instead! There's an instagram account called black_at_usc where black students have shared their experiences on campus. I think that can provide insight and potentially help you connect with several black trojans who would share their experience with you. I hope this is helpful! & thank you for your support
I love your channel! I have a question--do you think USC is a better environment for black students? I always got the impression that UCLA --and the UCs in general--cater to the white/asian demographic. Private schools seem more financially generous and welcoming. Am I wrong?
Hey, thank you! and I really don't know tbh. I can only speak from my experience as Latina but I recommend that you reach out to black students so they can provide you with better insight!
Not everyone, to say we that means youre painting everyone with a broad brush and many others have much more than spanish, some also have german, french, italian, jewish backgrounds in latin america but its overlooked for simplicity Europeans have been emigrating into latin america since the 1800s allowed by spain
That's not true about company's that's the way it use to be. I have work for company's that have hire more women and blacks because they have degree's it all about money and who can make it for them. I work for a company that have more black and women of color because of their education background.
Yes, it is outrageous that darker skinned people can’t get as many privileges like lighter skinned people. Hopefully one day the Mexican government passes into law heavily penalizing telenovelas and other film industries only giving leading roles to lighter skinned people. Promote more diversity of color and penalize companies businesses that discriminate on skin color, gender and age.
No puedo estar mas de acuerdo con tu video y btw a veces te pones a pensar como los europeos arruinaron america :(inculcando que todo lo negro es malo. Lo que Mexico tiene para llevar es clasismo y la verdad a este punto ya casi no veo diferencias entre que color eres, solo cuanto tienes, eso define quien eres( tristemente). Saludos desde Mexico ❤️
Holaaa Fernanda👋🏼 En realidad si, Mexico es bien elitista y clasista😓 creo que en Mexico también no se tienen estas conversaciones entonces mucha gente acepta estas dinámicas.
Mi vida , habla por ti , pero no por los demás . Las personas latinas viviendo en EEUU tienen una experiencia muy distinta a los latinos que no . En Venezuela las latinas y las venezolanas estamos súper orgullosas de nuestra cultura , de nuestras curvas y del hecho de que somos una mezcla de tres razas: indígena , blanca y negra . Cuando era pequeña aprendí de figuras tan importantes en la historia de mi país como la Negra Matea que crio a Simón Bolívar y figuras políticas como Juan Beltrán Prieto Figueroa o Rómulo Betancourt y mis padres bailaban y admiraban a la inimitable y única Celia Cruz o actrices como Gledys Ibarra o Franklin Virguez, y estaban cantantes de descendencia más indígena como Las Morillo , o inclusive modelos bellísimas como Patricia Velázquez ( que es de descendencia Wayu )o actualmente Norkys Batista ( con la que a veces choco , pero por cosas que hace , pero no por eso la considero menos hermana que cualquier venezolana). Entonces eso de generalizar no me parece. No me identifico con tu retórica y me siento bastante incomoda que personas que no conocen nuestra cultura te agradezcan por haberles dado “ una clase “ sobre cultura latina . Repito , no hay una sola postura rígida e incambiable en cuanto a este tema. Yo entiendo perfectamente el dolor y la injusticia que sienten y la lucha interminable que viven los afroamericanos desde que los trajeron involuntariamente a Estados Unidos have cientos de años y me parece terrible y los apoyo al mil por ciento y no me comparo con ellos porque la historia y la lucha latina es otra . Buen día .
Como venezolana que ha vivido tanto en Venezuela como en los Estados Unidos, concuerdo que las experencias vividas en la comunidad latina son muy diferentes. Ten en cuenta que viviendo en un pais latino americano no vas a sentir discriminacion por ser la mayoria a diferencia de los latinos viviendo en los Estados Unidos, o en cualquier otro pais. Ciertamente, en Venezuela nos enseñan sobre figuras historicas, pero tambien debes de admitir la mayoria son blancos peninzulares, y las figuras indigenas o negras son muy pocas. Además, aprender sobre las comunidades indigenas para tu exposición de cuarto grado no es suficiente. Sin tomar en cuenta la situacion actual de Venezuela, uno de los grupos mas pobres y sometidos a negligencia son los indigenas. La mayoria de los venezolanos decimos que sabemos sobre las comunidades indigenas de nuestro pais cuando en realidad solo los nombramos cuando nos conviene, y muchos no saben o les importan las condiciones de vida de esas personas. Aunque los venezolanos se sientan orgullosos de sus raizes debes de admitir que la clase alta esta compuesta mayormente de personas con decendencia europea. En referencia a los artistas de color que nombraste, ellos representan la excepción. Podrias sinceramente nombrarme más de 10 modelos, cantantes, o actores de descendencia indigena en Venezuela? Lo dudo. Yo concuerdo con la ¨clase¨ que ella expresa en su video, además, generalizaciones son tecnicas necesarias para elaborar en temas que incluyen a millones de personas. Es casi imposible separar a cada pais, cada region, cada persona para poder hablar de un tema. Si no te aplica, no te ofendas. Ella también mencionó al principio del video que se esta basando mayormente en la cultura mexicana y argentina ya que esa es su desendencia. Esta lucha no es unicamente de los afroamericanos en Estados Unidos, es de los afroamericanos en latino america tambien. Escuchar musica de artistas negros no quita el racismo, asi no es como funciona, si eres una persona educada deberias de reconocerlo. Tampoco digo que seas racista, lo que quiero expresar es que el minimo reconcimiento de artistas of figuras de color no es suficiente. La historia y lucha latina es muy parecida a la negra, decir que la apoyas mientras la minimalizas no es mucho apoyo que digamos... Pero como dicen, you do you. Buena tarde.
@@Arivrr11 hahahahaha me divierte que de verdad creas que mencione a estas personas porque NO ME CRIE RODEADA DE PERSONAS DE TODAS LAS RAZAS Y CULTURAS , como cualquier persona de Caracas te puede corroborar, siendo yo misma , el producto de la mezcla de por lo menos tres razas y culturas . De hecho , mi padre era una mezcla de Indio con negro y algo de europeo , mi abuelo le decía “ el Indio “ porque mi abuelo era , a su vez un inmigrante de Austria que trabajo desde los 8 años ayudando a su madre , ya que fue concebido fuera del matrimonio y eso estaba muy mal visto en 1900. Terminó inmigrando a cuba , luego Venezuela y allí terminó montando una agencia de festejos que le dejó a mi madre cuando murió . No se porque crees que estoy “ nombrando “ personas de otras razas ( también asumiendo que soy 💯 blanca peninsular sin conocerme ). Obvio que mencione a estas personas , a las que admiro por demás , porque si hablaba de mi tío Alberto , no sabrían quien es . Si hablaba de mi tía Ninoska , tampoco sabrías , yo misma como ejemplo , no se cuánto tengo de cada raza . Eso de que en Venezuela son en su mayoría “ blancos peninsulares “ es completamente falso . Si les haces una prueba de ADN a esas personas verás que todos tienen algo de mestizaje . Si como no hay algunos “ blancos 💯) a los que los llaman : catires , pero de ninguna , ninguna manera son la mayoría , por Dios ! No se donde vivías o si estuviste todo el tiempo de tu pasar por Venezuela debajo de una roca pero eso que dices no es real . Lo lamento , pero no es mi experiencia que en Venezuela sobre todo , y en Brasil y la costa colombiana , donde hubo la mayor cantidad de mestizaje ( no se si estás familiarizado con el término : quiere decir unión o mezcla de dos razas o más ) el racismo no es la cosa que nos separa o no , si puede ser que la clase social nos divide más , pero como dije antes , en mi vida en Venezuela me creí rodeada de primos oscuros y claros , negros y “catires “ y la única vez que me preguntaron en mi cara “ a que raza pertenezco “ fue en EEUU, una vez adulta . Así que de nuevo habla por ti , no hay una experiencia única y piensa lo que quieras pero no me puedes obligar a inventar que viví una realidad que no viví .
@@camilaxcastillo Chama mucho texto jajajajajajaj no me importa la historia de tu familia. No se trata de si estamos mezclados o no, es sobre el colorismo en latino america y como en Estados Unidos la lucha por los derechos de los negros deberia de ser importante para los latinos tambien. Además, nunca asumí tu raza asi que no se porque te picas jajajaja
@@Arivrr11 no me pique, me arrecho que me digas de una que yo estaba hablando "ese gente" porque los oi en la radio y asumiendo cosas sin saber nada de mi y te lo aclare . Acostúmbrate a que otra gente este en desacuerdo contigo y no es el final del mundo . Es mi opinion y ya , no vas a cambiar mi experiencia con un post en los comentarios de you tube .......😒
@@camilaxcastilloYo se que no es el final del mundo, en realidad los desacuerdos llevan a grandes conversaciones. Tampoco estaba tratando de cambiar tus experiencias (no tengo una maquina del tiempo jaja) Mi punto es, el hecho de que tu seas muy culta no significa que los demas lo sean. Los latinos deberiamos de apoyar el movimiento BLM, ya que ellos estan luchando por los mismos derechos que los latinos en Estados Unidos tambien estan luchando. Si no estas dispuesta a ver el mundo desde el punto de vista de las personas afectadas entonces no se que decirte. Quedate con tu opinion y ya. Feliz Año Nuevo.
A very leftist perspective. I think you need to understand and review history from a different framework, because you're looking at it through the lens of social justice, which naively assumes that human morality is understood the same throughout time. Back in 1492, everyone was conquering everyone. In fact, Spain and Portugal were literally ruled by constant invaders and foreigner conquerors for longer than they ruled the Americas. From the Italian Peninsula came the Romans, who brought their language (Latin), which became eventually the languages that most Iberians speak today (Castilian, Portuguese, Catalan, etc). The Moors ruled for 600 years, affecting the culture of the region more than anyone can really grasp. Our roots are no less European than they are Indigenous (not a single ethnicity) or African (also not an ethnicity). We exist BECAUSE the Spanish and Portuguese empires came into existence. Without that aspect of history, with all its negatives and positives, we would not be here. Our food, music, clothing, religious practices, architecture, dance, etc. derives from the fusion of practices, not some kind of bizarre, structured system of legal segregation or oppression, that DID OCCUR....in the United States. If the Iberians hadn't conquered our region of the world, our Indigenous ancestors would have never come into contact with them, and African peoples would have never been imported as slaves. We simply wouldn't exist. It's not about right or wrong. It's about the facts.
your experiences are so Mexican but is not the same in all countries, for example, you was talking about Mexican novelas when have a huge casting of withe people, but watch Colombian nivela and the picture is diferent. About the colonialism, was different the Anglo conquer, where the most important thing was race, that's why they killed almost all the indigenous people in the north, the Spanish conquest was different, the main thing was religion and language, the derived slaves could be freed if they learned the language and took the religion, that is why there were also black conquerors in Latin America, some names, Juan Garrido, Juan Beltrán, Juan García, Sebastián Toral, Juan Valiente, etc… others the first black teacher was in the Spanish colony, Juan Latino, admired by the writer of Don Quixote de La Mancha and whom he names in his masterpiece, In addition, the Spanish colony was the cradle of the first place where blacks were free in the American territory, El Fuerte Mose, a place where the slaves of the English escaped for freedom. For this and many other things that would be extended to me, the American revolutions do not apply to Latin culture, and if there are prejudices in Latin America, it has been due to the Anglo influence after the second war, the history vea is so complex to make a reduction from the Anglo glasses
I heard about black and brown lives matters in America about racism

Es casi imposible separar a cada pais, cada region, cada persona para poder hablar de un tema. Si no te aplica, no te ofendas. Ella también mencionó al principio del video que se esta basando mayormente en la cultura mexicana y argentina ya que esa es su desendencia.
Esta lucha no es unicamente de los afroamericanos en Estados Unidos, es de los afroamericanos en latino america tambien. Escuchar musica de artistas negros no quita el racismo, asi no es como funciona, si eres una persona educada deberias de reconocerlo. Tampoco digo que seas racista, lo que quiero expresar es que el minimo reconcimiento de artistas of figuras de color no es suficiente.
La historia y lucha latina es muy parecida a la negra, decir que la apoyas mientras la minimalizas no es mucho apoyo que digamos...
Pero como dicen, you do you. Buena tarde.
@@Arivrr11 hahahahaha me divierte que de verdad creas que mencione a estas personas porque NO ME CRIE RODEADA DE PERSONAS DE TODAS LAS RAZAS Y CULTURAS , como cualquier persona de Caracas te puede corroborar, siendo yo misma , el producto de la mezcla de por lo menos tres razas y culturas .
De hecho , mi padre era una mezcla de Indio con negro y algo de europeo , mi abuelo le decía “ el Indio “ porque mi abuelo era , a su vez un inmigrante de Austria que trabajo desde los 8 años ayudando a su madre , ya que fue concebido fuera del matrimonio y eso estaba muy mal visto en 1900. Terminó inmigrando a cuba , luego Venezuela y allí terminó montando una agencia de festejos que le dejó a mi madre cuando murió . No se porque crees que estoy “ nombrando “ personas de otras razas ( también asumiendo que soy 💯 blanca peninsular sin conocerme ). Obvio que mencione a estas personas , a las que admiro por demás , porque si hablaba de mi tío Alberto , no sabrían quien es . Si hablaba de mi tía Ninoska , tampoco sabrías , yo misma como ejemplo , no se cuánto tengo de cada raza .
Eso de que en Venezuela son en su mayoría “ blancos peninsulares “ es completamente falso . Si les haces una prueba de ADN a esas personas verás que todos tienen algo de mestizaje . Si como no hay algunos “ blancos 💯) a los que los llaman : catires , pero de ninguna , ninguna manera son la mayoría , por Dios ! No se donde vivías o si estuviste todo el tiempo de tu pasar por Venezuela debajo de una roca pero eso que dices no es real .
Lo lamento , pero no es mi experiencia que en Venezuela sobre todo , y en Brasil y la costa colombiana , donde hubo la mayor cantidad de mestizaje ( no se si estás familiarizado con el término : quiere decir unión o mezcla de dos razas o más ) el racismo no es la cosa que nos separa o no , si puede ser que la clase social nos divide más , pero como dije antes , en mi vida en Venezuela me creí rodeada de primos oscuros y claros , negros y “catires “ y la única vez que me preguntaron en mi cara “ a que raza pertenezco “ fue en EEUU, una vez adulta . Así que de nuevo habla por ti , no hay una experiencia única y piensa lo que quieras pero no me puedes obligar a inventar que viví una realidad que no viví .
@@camilaxcastillo Chama mucho texto jajajajajajaj no me importa la historia de tu familia. No se trata de si estamos mezclados o no, es sobre el colorismo en latino america y como en Estados Unidos la lucha por los derechos de los negros deberia de ser importante para los latinos tambien. Además, nunca asumí tu raza asi que no se porque te picas jajajaja
@@Arivrr11 no me pique, me arrecho que me digas de una que yo estaba hablando "ese gente" porque los oi en la radio y asumiendo cosas sin saber nada de mi y te lo aclare .
Acostúmbrate a que otra gente este en desacuerdo contigo y no es el final del mundo .
Es mi opinion y ya ,
no vas a cambiar mi experiencia con un post en los comentarios de you tube .......😒
@@camilaxcastilloYo se que no es el final del mundo, en realidad los desacuerdos llevan a grandes conversaciones. Tampoco estaba tratando de cambiar tus experiencias (no tengo una maquina del tiempo jaja) Mi punto es, el hecho de que tu seas muy culta no significa que los demas lo sean. Los latinos deberiamos de apoyar el movimiento BLM, ya que ellos estan luchando por los mismos derechos que los latinos en Estados Unidos tambien estan luchando. Si no estas dispuesta a ver el mundo desde el punto de vista de las personas afectadas entonces no se que decirte. Quedate con tu opinion y ya. Feliz Año Nuevo.
A very leftist perspective. I think you need to understand and review history from a different framework, because you're looking at it through the lens of social justice, which naively assumes that human morality is understood the same throughout time. Back in 1492, everyone was conquering everyone. In fact, Spain and Portugal were literally ruled by constant invaders and foreigner conquerors for longer than they ruled the Americas. From the Italian Peninsula came the Romans, who brought their language (Latin), which became eventually the languages that most Iberians speak today (Castilian, Portuguese, Catalan, etc). The Moors ruled for 600 years, affecting the culture of the region more than anyone can really grasp.
Our roots are no less European than they are Indigenous (not a single ethnicity) or African (also not an ethnicity). We exist BECAUSE the Spanish and Portuguese empires came into existence. Without that aspect of history, with all its negatives and positives, we would not be here. Our food, music, clothing, religious practices, architecture, dance, etc. derives from the fusion of practices, not some kind of bizarre, structured system of legal segregation or oppression, that DID OCCUR....in the United States. If the Iberians hadn't conquered our region of the world, our Indigenous ancestors would have never come into contact with them, and African peoples would have never been imported as slaves. We simply wouldn't exist. It's not about right or wrong. It's about the facts.
your experiences are so Mexican but is not the same in all countries, for example, you was talking about Mexican novelas when have a huge casting of withe people, but watch Colombian nivela and the picture is diferent. About the colonialism, was different the Anglo conquer, where the most important thing was race, that's why they killed almost all the indigenous people in the north, the Spanish conquest was different, the main thing was religion and language, the derived slaves could be freed if they learned the language and took the religion, that is why there were also black conquerors in Latin America, some names, Juan Garrido, Juan Beltrán, Juan García, Sebastián Toral, Juan Valiente, etc… others the first black teacher was in the Spanish colony, Juan Latino, admired by the writer of Don Quixote de La Mancha and whom he names in his masterpiece, In addition, the Spanish colony was the cradle of the first place where blacks were free in the American territory, El Fuerte Mose, a place where the slaves of the English escaped for freedom. For this and many other things that would be extended to me, the American revolutions do not apply to Latin culture, and if there are prejudices in Latin America, it has been due to the Anglo influence after the second war, the history vea is so complex to make a reduction from the Anglo glasses
