    Facts! My dad is Black venezuelan. My mom is black Puerto Rican. Which makes me Full black by race and Latino by culture. Idk why ppl have a hard time understanding this. Black is genetic. Latino is culture.

    THANK YOU! Finally someone speaks the truth! Being black and being hispanic/latino is different. Technically anyone can be latino because its not a race but more of a culture background like American. No else can be black but black ppl.

    I would also say, they barely touch any of his latino heritage in any media, besides replying in spanish to his mom sometimes, so yeah, he is black

    I thought it was cool that the brothers weren't falling in line behind that goofy O'Hara.

    Fun fact: in an attempt to justify the tokenization of Peter Parker's retelling and story through Miles Morales, Stan Lee claimed that Spider-Man was originally meant to be a black superhero loosely inspired by Anansi tales in an over ploy to monetize on the peak of the Civil Rights era, back to 1963 (while X-Men was a watered-down face of the same piece) . But that other people at Marvel Comics insisted to make Peter Parker white.
    Still, in the last news his Proto-Peter Parker wasn't a bi-racial African American/Puertorican bisegsual pro-Democrat, Obama-loving teenage boy.

      Interesting, I didn't know Spider-Man was inspired by Anansi 🤔

      @@KaizokuSleven Apparently, Stan Lee was a big fan of the West African, Central African and Deep South African American tales running around the trickster god. So much so that he even authored himself an alternate-universe Spider-Man comic issue with for backdrop the Anansi tales and Spider-Man (in that universe, just another name and guise for the African deity) as a replacement, back to the 2000s.

    HOME RUN‼️‼️. Thank you. This is what happens when we aren't in the room...not just someone who shares our looks but shares our interests. That personal hasn't been in the room arguably since Dwayne McDuffie's passing.

    I'm genuinely not confused about it at all. But well. Must be an American thing. I'm Canadian.

    3:28 ..ok 🤨 Elon musk was born in Africa. That's makes him African 🤷🏾 people fighting over spiderman's race. His mix race..biracial. But most of his blood is black. He didn't called himself by any race in the two movies I saw. So people just have too wait. He may see himself as Hebrew or female...who knows. Either way, I loved the movies. I'm liberal & we love everybody ಡ⁠ ͜⁠ ⁠ʖ⁠ ⁠ಡ ☮️🌼 still praying for Ukraine

    3:08 There’s a difference between performance capture animation in video games and just animation in the movies

    so do biracial people not exist than, i know you never said that but am just kinda confuse here like what if your light skin or just white but have African American hair does that mean your just white? also i know we are just talking about Miles but am just curious to know this because this video got me confuse on race and what makes a person "biracial"

    • @KaizokuSleven

      Let's address a few things. 1. There's no such thing as "African American Hair". Black people(which I presume you were trying to say) can have all variation of hair texture, especially in the African continent. 2. Having lighter skin DOESN'T equate to being mixed, people with dark hue have more capacity to create offspring with lighter hue unlike so called white people that have less melanin. Also, many mixed individuals have dark-skin as well. Now to answer your question, Yes. Biracial and Mixed people exist and how people turn out visually all depends on the genes that were passed onto them. So when you see "light skin" or so called "white people" with "African-American hair" it's because of genes passed onto them. Somewhere along their line someone had that feature, more than likely a parent or grandparents had that specific feature.

    I just want to say thank you for dropping the knowledge down in this video. Alway was curious about the differences between race, culture, identity, etc. Gonna go on a research binge.
