I grew up in Hollywood, was even born on Sunset Blvd and you're right about the sinister nature of the film industry. My mother would have been in the middle of all that stuff she looked like Dorothy Lamour when she was young and won many beauty pageants how even my grandmother wouldn't let her do films because the studios wanted to do degrading stereotyped parts so no film career for my mom she had four of us kids instead and raised us.

I am shocked you keep saying that Dorothy was Marilyn’s muse and honestly feel you should stop saying that cause one it’s not true, two Marilyn based that persona on dumb woman so you saying that is like saying that Dorothy was dumb which she wasn’t nor did Dorothy ever play dumb! Frankly I find it sad to say that cause Dorothy was anything but that! Think this narrative you are pushing is desecrating, Dorothy Dandridge image. This is all love girl trust me I have been subscribed to you for years but I have to keep it real with you.

We only ever hear about Dorothy Dandridge. I was given Dorothy's biography by my black mom as a teenager, to reinforce confidence in my mixed heritage as one of only three black girls at an all white high school. To be truthful I was lucky. My classmates considered me one of their own, were uniquely inclusive and never made me feel otherized. It's wonderful to know their were many other afro-descended actresses trying to stake their claim in Hollyweird and so, so very sad she had to wear a white mask to do it. Look how beautiful and talented she was. I remember it was very, very important to both my black mother and white father (Civil Rights advocates) that my sister and I, NOT try to pass as anything other than exactly who we were. We were made to watch the film "Imitation of Life" many times, I guess to warn us that denial of our racial identity would only lead to regret.

This woman definitely looks biracial and is gorgeous!

I understand, my grandmother on my mother’s side was half black/half white. Back when they had colored and white restroom at filling stations(gas station) with my grandmother we went in to use the bathroom and my grandmother stopped and pause as if not knowing which bathroom to go to and the white man ask her what was wrong she said I am trying to figure out which one to go to. The white man behind the counter told my grandmother that she could go to either one of the bathrooms she wanted to go to. I will never forget that I am 77 years old now . A lot of things happen that was kept hinden back in those days.

My great grandmother went through something like this from a very early age. She was Hispanic born in the Southwestern US, after her mother died she was put up for adoption and was adopted by a white family. She then had to pass as white for decades (even changed her name) until she was an adult and mother herself! In her later years when I knew her she was very proud of her ethnicity. The only thing she didn’t re-embrace was her birth name, but I think it was because she had spent most of her life with the name her adoptive family gave her that she felt more used to that.

I made it to the 3rd round of auditions and a few of the staff came into the room where about 300 of us were waiting, and told us that we needed to come up with our back story to impress the judges. They also told us the more emotional we were, the better. People literally started "testing" out fake sad stories with each other and sharing techniques on how to cry. I felt like I was in the Matrix on Mars. When I got in the room with the judges, sang, and then shared by normal life and I was immediately rejected. I sang well but my story didn't grab them.

It's like a slithering snake throughout history to persecute, constrict and cast shame upon people who were simply exercising their dual heritage to pursue their happiness. And I truly believe those who continue to perpetrate this persecution will suffer. A day of reckoning is coming.

Many places like the Cotton Club innHarlem had all black entertainers singers,big band greats dancer who performed for all white audiences. They were not allowed on the floor with them,mingle ,had to enter in the back door as with all other places. So what Dona did could have caused her life to be taken,or she beaten until almost unalived. Again I since you are younger,do not get this history,segregation black Americans faced that included where you can go,live,what type you could get and more ,,slavery ending way before this times did not change the mindset of those who did it,ancestors did ,it was just replaced by Jim Crow ,everywhere.

It doesn’t look ‘unusual’ because all the photos & videos are in black & white-so they could all get away with it.

A person can be Hispanic of any race. There are white Hispanics, Black Hispanics, mestizo Hispanics, etc. However, in this case, being born in Mexico only makes Marilyn’s mom’s nationality Mexican, not her ethnicity.

I know that this is about a woman, but this reminds me of the late artist, Romare Bearden. He was a light skinned black man (pretty sure he was mixed) and he played baseball. He was offered the opportunity to play in the major leagues, but only if he passed for white to play on a specific team. He refused, quit baseball and he eventually became a well-known artist! And his art reflected the everyday lives of African Americans and black musicians, as opposed to the negative narratives we see about black people in media.

Not all chose to pass. Fredi Washington for example had the opportunity but chose not. She played Peola in Imitation of Life - a film about passing. She told reporters in 1949 that she identified as Black "...because I'm honest, firstly, and secondly, you don't have to be white to be good. I've spent most of my life trying to prove to those who think otherwise ... I am a Negro and I am proud of it." - so people did chose to pass but those with pride and strength of character chose not to.

I myself can pass also. I get treated so much differently when folks think I'm "white". I have to correct people and let them know my father is what we call Afro Latino man and half Nigerian. Personally, I will never try to pass for white because I'm very proud of my Black and African side of my family. My folks had 10 children. We all look different because of our blood lines but we definitely know where we come from and we love it. I have 6 children, their father is Black American and Nigerian. When people who don't know my family see me with my children they automatically think I'm just a friend of theirs. They don't believe I'm their mother(my children are adults now with their own children) and many think that my children have different fathers once they find out they are my actual children. It's really sad how people treat and view Black folks compared to white foks

The stress she had to live with had to be overwhelming.

As a Black woman, I see a Black woman in her. She reminds me of women on my mother's side of the family, some of whom did "pass" back in the day. Thank you for another informative piece, Karine. I appreciate the work that you put into this channel.

You can be Mexican and white, the two are not mutually exclusive. You can be Mex and Black, etc. Salma Hayak is Mexican and Arab. Just like an American can be any race, ethnicity, race or combination/mix of ethnicity or races, so can Mexicans. To be Mexican is a nationality, and not a racial designation. Lupita Nyong'o is Mexican because she was born there to parents from Kenya. She has Mexican and Kenyan nationality, she's Mao Mao ethnically, being from Sub Saharan Africa, she's also Black.

I'm a Latina, born in Argentina and moved to the US at age 9. I didn't speak English until i moved there. I hung out with mostly white and African American friends that i met in school. My English was pretty much void of an accent, and with my pale freckled skin and blue eyes, I've always been seen as a white American. I'm proud of my Latin roots but also recognize that looking "non hispanic" has afforded me opportunities that i might not have gotten if i looked more ethnic. But instead of just taking advantage of all that for personal gain, I've used that as a platform to raise awareness of discrimination and biases in the work force and a platform to call out against racism in general.
