Henry Louis Gates did a special with PBS in 2011 Black in Latin America. One episode was called Mexico & Peru: La Abuelita in the closet. A Mexican woman was his guide and she revealed how she always knew but didn’t get confirmation until she was older about her Black roots and her family’s shame. She went over all the shared culture, food etc. You should watch and there’s definitely some good clips you could use. ✊🏾✊🏾

The absolute pure hatred of Black/dark skin by ALL is mind boggling to me. I just imagine these people’s daily life filled with rage to just know that Black/dark skin people exist. How do y’all walk around carrying such a heavy burden? Meanwhile we are here, unbreakable. This level of pure demonic hatred needs to be studied…

The documentary Black Gramma in the closet is a really documentary. It opened my eyes to how the black folks in these countries from Mexico to South America treated and still treats their black populations
