I remember when I first came from Nigeria in the 90's back in the days everybody wanted to be black american and didn't want to have anything to do with Africa, Now they realize being black american is really not the deal they thought it was, and Africa is not as bad as white supremacists have portrait it to be. Hey you're all welcome to Africa if you want to come, we Africans are the most welcoming people. We don't hate or discriminate.
SMH a lot of mirthless cackle! Your prelude defeated the Premise of your arguement, when you accentuate your so called Latiness, or spanishness over your Africaness.
Bottom line, you guys just claim black or African when it comes to the culture and music. That's why people dare you to claim "black" or African first! In a America you have claim BLACK period, or you're not!
