@afrolatina_world: What she said “I’m not Black, I’m Puerto Rican, I have white in me” is a category mistake. She’s confusing race with nationality, and using “white in me” as a way to distance herself from Blackness. 📚 Educational Breakdown 🧩 1. Puerto Rican is a nationality/ethnicity not a race Puerto Rican identity (Boricua) is cultural and national. Race is ancestry. They are not interchangeable. 🧬 2. Having European ancestry doesn’t erase African ancestry Many Puerto Ricans have mixed heritage Taíno, African, and Spanish. But “I have white in me” is not a racial category. It’s a social preference, often used to avoid identifying as Black. 🪞 3. Saying “I’m not Black, I’m Puerto Rican” is a form of racial denial It’s common in the Caribbean and Latin America because people were taught that “Black” only means African American. But Afro‑descendant identity exists across the entire region. 🌎 4. You can be Puerto Rican AND Black These identities are not opposites. They overlap. White supremacy isn’t just violent racism it’s also the social pressure to be closer to whiteness. People align with it when they: • deny their Black ancestry • claim whiteness as a shield • use nationality to avoid racial identity • repeat racist ideas to gain acceptance • distance themselves from Afro‑descendant people #racialdiscrimination #whitesupreamacists #maga #menoblack #puertorico

Tanama333 (Ta-nuh-ma) 🦋 :

Puerto Rican is an ethnicity and nationality, rather than a distinct race. We’re indeed a mixed culture but the fact is, the color of your skin will always determine how society sees, and judges you.

Your race is black your ethnicity is Puerto Rican I’m Puerto Rican myself

Puerto Ricans are unfortunately not by majority black, but some do have heavier African ancestry. West African Yoruba culture
