[Image Description: Five women (left to right: a Brown woman with braids, White or White passing woman with straight hair, a brown-skinned hijabi, a Black woman with afro-textured hair, and an Asian woman) all have on t-shirts with the word “Latina” written on it. Underneath them, the image says “LATIN@ IS AN ETHNICITY NOT A RACE.]

Based on this post

Latin@ is an ethnicity not a race

YES

Very appropriate given conversations/thoughts I’ve been having on race/ethnicity in general

Hell yes!

I am reblogging this because it is awesome but also because it makes me so incredibly happy to see things on tumblr that are already accessible Woot, woot, gardeniasandgoldchains! Thank you for the image description.

Thank you. The misuse of the word ethnic by people who theoretically are bright is disturbing. Ethnicity/Cultural grouping is not race, though it has come to be. Moronic much. One’s Ethnic predispositions say far more about one than your race.

Hallelujah…..somebody finally said it!!! Big up to all my Black Nicaraguan girls!!!

All my Afro-Latina’s in the house I see you!!!

"There is no African, myself included, who does not appreciate the help of the wider world, but we do..."

Tue, 21 May 2013 10:19:43 -0400

“There is no African, myself included, who does not appreciate the help of the wider world, but we do question whether aid is genuine or given in the spirit of affirming one’s cultural superiority. My mood is dampened every time I attend a benefit whose host runs through a litany of African disasters before presenting a (usually) wealthy, white person, who often proceeds to list the things he or she has done for the poor, starving Africans. Every time a well-meaning college student speaks of villagers dancing because they were so grateful for her help, I cringe. Every time a Hollywood director shoots a film about Africa that features a Western protagonist, I shake my head — because Africans, real people though we may be, are used as props in the West’s fantasy of itself. And not only do such depictions tend to ignore the West’s prominent role in creating many of the unfortunate situations on the continent, they also ignore the incredible work Africans have done and continue to do to fix those problems.”
