ya’ll are quick to stan Miles for being a black spiderman but stay sleeping on his obvious latinx heritage. Im just wondering why?
now THIS is the funniest post of 2019 like. the implication that people overlook the fact that he’s latino when his last name is morales and he speaks spanish in the movie and in the comics….
also where are all the non black latines hyping up miles or america chavez? it was mainly black people, especially afro latine people getting into them. non black latines were the most silent. it’s not black americans’ fault.
also FUNNY that you use “y'all” who’s the y'all? cuz it’s black americans who are excited for miles, it’s afro latines who see themselves in him and his family and hype it up too. like. just say black americans. say it with your chest.
the latine community also is racist as fuck so maybe that’s why you don’t see people saying he’s latino because it’s a black boy that’s leading. go yell at nb latines instead of bothering black americans who love and hype up miles.
it’s cuz of this shit that afrolatines sometimes feel more connected to their black side first rather than being latino first.
anyways. begone, thot.
There’s a ton of posts talking about the representation of latinadad and Afro latine culture in the film you can’t split his blackness from his latine heritage his both at the same time. This is some Gina Rodriguez ass logic
OP a loser like lol Black people were talking about how beautifully they represented both his African American and Puerto Rican heritage, nothing felt forced, he was a well-rounded character, there were no stereotypes, his family dynamic was realistic, etc etc
ppl like OP are expecting to get away w this shit because they assume African Americans don’t know anything about Latino people and it’s like… jokes on you because so many of our communities have been in close proximity for the memorable past and beyond.
like it’s just corny at this point. do you not get tired of trying to demonize Black ppl every single time something like this releases? carrying tht much bitterness has to be unhealthy
PS it’s y’all not ya’ll goofy ass.
also the fact that dummy said “obvious latinx heritage” instead of literally saying his Puerto Rican identity is just icing on the cake y'all truly don’t even think about what you say before you say it lmao how are you going to accuse Black people of not acknowledging his Latinidad when you just generalized it yourself huh
I REALLY HATE when I’m talking about my desire for romantic love and someone says, “well love yourself.” Like shut the fuck up. Self love and romantic love do not replace each other. They do not fill the same void. And just because I wish there was someone in my life that made me feel special, doesn’t mean I don’t think I’M special. Fuck your projections. Regardless of HOW MUCH you love yourself, it doesn’t replace the energy, strength, commitment, and love that can come from another. As a general note, my feelings aren’t up for debate. I just wanted to vent.
GERTIE BROWN & SAINT SUTTLE “Something Good-Negro Kiss,” the newly discovered William Selig silent film from 1898 is believed to be the earliest cinematic depiction of African-American affection. Thanks to scholars at the University of Chicago and the University of Southern California, the footage is prompting a rethinking of early film history. The performance by cakewalk partners Saint Suttle and Gertie Brown is a reinterpretation of Thomas Edison’s “The Kiss,” featuring May Irwin and John Rice. The film was announced December 12, 2018 as a new addition to the Library of Congress’ National Film Registry—one of 25 selected for their enduring importance to American culture. The 29-second clip is free of stereotypes and racist caricatures, a stark contrast from the majority of black performances at the turn of the century.
