Afro-Latinx [Discussion]

Hey! I love the thought of this discussion :yellow_heart: !
I’m a Afro-Latina self but live in the UK. The only problem i have is when people tell me my race , for one i’m on the light side for a black girl and always get told by others i’m white, i’m not afro-latina; just hispanic and so on. Ik a few afro-latino/as who are told their African or Jamaican basically told their race isn’t their race by people who have no idea about other ethnic groups. Idk if it’s just in the UK but we have the term ‘BAME’ (black asian and minority ethnic) so some and many people don’t believe afro-latino/as are ‘a thing’ which i thinks a big problem :frowning_face:.
