I thought everyone secretly accepted that spanish people were a little bit not white, which made their racism even sadder

iatee, Wednesday, 2 May 2012 03:06 (eleven years ago) link

didnt someone more or less prove the old rumour about torquemada being a converso?

Ms Tum-Bla-Wi-Tee (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 2 May 2012 03:07 (eleven years ago) link

this segues onto a whole intra-european racismism wherein english people say 'oh those italians are all fucking racists, the serbs are basically animals'

think s zizek has covered this

Spanish people are white right?
Spanish people are white right?but why do people not consider them white in my life ive seen many spanish people from (SPAIN)and they look european white ive seen some with blonde hair blue eyes brunette all kinds so why do american not consider them white are they just too ignorant and whats latino got to do with this topic they are just mixed spanish and aztec.since all western american countries think if u speak spanish or your from south america they will think ur spanish.. but they are not spanish..only (SOME OF THEM ARE MIXED SPANISH WITH SOME AZTEC OR MAYAN ANCESTERY)why are people so ignorant i am from spain my self and i once went to america and a guy asked me where i am from and i said spain and he was like stop lieing spanish people have brown skin and they look like mexicans..i was angry how ignorant people can be and the lack of easy knowledge for them to understand.

When I was much younger, I dated a girl who had some portuguese ancestry. I remember asking a buddy of mine if she counted as "latina". Shaking my damn head at myself, but I hadn't had too much contact with Mexican or Central American people at that point.

How can anyone think that's acceptable?
