Has Nigeria Got Any Black-white People ("mulattas"/"mulattos")?

By the way; this is for those who don't know!! There's no such thing as a Latin, Latino or Hispanic race, that's a cultural term. It refers to people of all races whom share a cultural commonality in regards to their heavily Spanish influenced environment. Calling folks Hispanic is comparable to calling Nigerians, Ghanaians, Americans, Irish, Indians, Kenyans, or Australians,  a bunch of Anglos, because they're English influenced and speaking nations.

This Hispanic term didn't exist until the large wave of immigrants began poring into the nation with their inferiority complexes about their racial makeups. You had clear as day blacks attempting to claim themselves as Tiano Indians,  who've been nearly wiped off the face of the Earth for past 500 years.  You had clear as day Mestizos trying to say that they were full blooded Spanish Europeans, and indisputable Mulattos claiming to be fully white as well.

Here in the US, that crap wasn't going to fly,  and the vast majority of these South of the border newcomers where very obstinate about accepting their rightful titles as they're observed here in the US,  so as a compromise,  the government created a unifying title for them, and this was Hispanic or Latino. Latino was added do to the fact of that not all of the new non-English  speaking new comers from south of the border were from Spanish speaking nations; some were from Portuguese and French speaking nations, so they added Latino,  to represent all those who come from the Latin-European (French, Spanish, Portuguese) influenced nations.

This was never needed to be done for the English and Dutch influenced nations down there, because they like the Americans were influenced under and the Anglo-Germanic system of European blood purity in representation. Meaning that only a pure blooded white can be seen as being a legitimate white, while do to the strength of the black genes any sizable of it within any person would make them just as Negro as the next. Latin law went opposite of this,  to a great extent.   

You're alright NinetoFive. I've been counted as rude before too. . .  But I just wanted to point that out. No apology necessary. You're a~ok.

Well actually the word mulato was born in Mexico, when we were colonized by Spain. when spanish people started mixing with black, and mexican aboriginals, there was a  need to "classiffy the mix", spanish+black= mulato, spanish+aboriginal=mestizo, black+aboriginals=zambo.

well I most say that cause i am mix (spanish+nigerian) but i was raised up in mexico.

I've been asking Drusilla the question for months and she comes back with, "That's what the white people say so we accept it". . .

Justgood,


Excellent question. (Donzman has been asking no such thing on these boards.)

Ask yourself why 1.5 million WHITE parents would not lobby for their children to be called by their race-- white?

When you understand the answer, you may be like a lot of us -- sick to your stomach over a country where the racism is so deep, even white parents -- would never respect their own children as white, but they would and have respected them as Black for centuries

I think the fact that those white women did not ask for their children to be called "White", is a perfectly beautiful example of how thick and deep the racism in America is.

JustGood,


This is the reason that "I had 5 children by a Black Person" is a non-sequitor as an answer to if the person is "racist against blacks".

 :PPS: By the way, who knows if Tyra Banks and Beyonce are mixed ("mulattas" )? Beyonce always says tha she is an Africa American  but her mother is white. Who can bring light into that
what do u mea beyonce has a white mother , i don't believe that she is a black person , ok when whether conditon has changed the genes of so many africa americans ,

Hi, I don't know if my mom has some white blood but she is unusually fair skinned for a Yoruba;  my skin is olive-tan or "yellow" and my pops doesn't want me to marry white because he "knows" that my children might come out looking white.

I have freckles, light-brown eyes, and can blush pink if I'm embarrassed.
Mostly every one on my mom's side has "good" curly hair and fair skin.  So do me and my bro(except our hair is more frizzy and kinky, LOL, ).
