Sooooooooooo and 1st

((((YARNING))))…BISH YOU ARE ALL BLACKTINO/A( WHICH MEANS YOU ARE BLACK BY DECENT…YOU LA-LA, ROSARIO DAWSON, CHRISTINA MILAN, AND ALL OF YOU JUST CUT IT OUT DAMN IT!!!!\

It kills me when these sisters uses their blackness to get street credibility and then switch back to the Latina thing to seem like they are crossing over to appease the white folks!!!

thought that was Jada at first lol
how can she say that when she is always complaining about some of her features?

f’ck her, she’s just disgusting to me f’ckin sellout black wh0re. i hope she’s married white men or just stay with her crackers!!

—

Born dark-skinned black stay dark-skinned black!

mixed is devils sh’t!

BLACK LOVE!

Its G.Y Or Die First S.L.A.P

Some of you fools are just stupid! I applaud her for accepting and recognizing her black roots. What’s wrong with that you idiots? What’s disgusting is how many black folks walk around here not embracing their heritage.

so why she only date white men then?! little hypocrite.

she looks JUST like Jada P. from that angle!!!

LMAO @ real black is chocolate

YOU’VE GOT TO BE ONE OF THE MOST IGNORANT AND UNEDUCATED PEOPLE I’VE EVER COME ACROSS IN MY LIFE. WHAT WORLD ARE YOU LIVING SUN? LOL

I agree in that she does look a little like Jada Pinkett-Smith.

nothin wrong with what she said…some cultures like to be considered an “other” when they have black roots, but she’s embracing all of her heritage and isn’t ashamed of the blackness

she’s quite annoying!!!

uh uh…of course not…dont keep talkin about something positive…theres no motivation in that…a**wipes..good for her..stop postin it if you’re tired of reading it

Zoe, we all see that you are a black woman so why are you so focused on explaining it? The world sees your blackness.

You guys are so “over it” you decided to write about right?

Good for you Zoe, you realize your ancestral background. Now if the other millions of darker than Wesley Snipes latinos will realize they aren’t white. We could make a move against the MAN.

Just wondering if she was talking just pro black would it still be a problem? Grow up and realize that we are in an evolving changing world that NOW allows us to openly talk about race. As a latin/ african american female myself i take offense for you coming down so hard on the girl. At least she’s talking bout something valid instead of hating – UNLIKE U. So take notes and by the way U LOOK BEAUTIFUL ZOE – LET THESE PENDEJAS KEEP HATIN CUZ U SHININ GIRL. long hair don’t care haha ha

@Educated Goon: With all due respect but both Lala & Zoe embrace their Afro roots.

& yes,you can be a black person of Hispanic decent.

Black being your race & Hispanic as your heritage/culture no matter what part of Central or South America one is from.

As well as Puerto Rico & Dominican Republic.
Unfortunately there are several ppl who don’t know the difference between race/ethnicity/nationality..perhaps reason as to why these women stay explaining themselves.
Some ppl,for whatever reason soley believe that if a person is black/ethnic?they can’t be Hispanic/Latino & that’s not true.

How many times is she going to keep reminding us she is dominican… She is just a nappy head to white society bottom line….

Black ppl are all over the world with an array of physical features as well as shades just like here in the United States with the only things that separates one from the other are language (in some cases) & culture.

well, the quote wasn’t for you to read. it was in her interview for the Siempre Mujer magazine readers.

@ObamaFan

Huh? r yu tryiin to sey tha she just a Nappy head isnt make her be Domiiniican??? Why iit abt her haiir to make her look liike she iis latiino??? iit iis not abt her haiir n eiither her skiin bec iit get nuff to do w iit…she was talkiin abt ethniic.

Oh please.
Every other article on here is about race.
Why can’t she be proud of being Latina as well as Black? Had she never mentioned it at all, she’d be catching it for that as well.
SMH.
A Black woman that’s proud of her heritage.
How is this even an issue?
Smh.

I thought that was Jada at first, too. Lol.
I can’t wait to see Death at a Funeral.
I know it looks stupid, but the trailer made me laugh so hard.

Whatever!

American Blacks have some real issues. It’s clear some of you are ashamed of who and what you are. Go head, Zoe…

These people are Hispanic and that’s it. There are 26 Spanish speaking countries in South America and they all have different cultures, practices and customs, Spanish is the only thing they have in common. Even the indigenous people were different from island to island. Read Five Centuries Of The Pillage Of A Continent and learn the truth.

She only keeps talking about race because interviewers keep asking about race. They are the ones that need to change it up and ask new questions.

This poor man’s Thandie Newton is ugly and has the face of a man. She wished she looked like Jessica Alba.

Latin (lingua lătīna, IPA: /laˈtiːna/) is an Italic language[3] originally spoken in Latium and Ancient Rome. With the Roman conquest, Latin was spread to countries around the Mediterranean, including a large part of Europe. Romance languages such as Aragonese, Corsican, Catalan, French, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian, Sardinian, Spanish and YOUR BLACK !

lol like i always said,

NEVER believe a 3rd World Countries Census.

In Latin America they deny blackness like its the PLAGUE even if they look like Wesley Snipes.lol Especially in DR where they say 11% is black when its more like 90%. lol

In Latin American the census numbers are so INSANELY off to the point where I’m surprised someone who visited didn’t sue for false advertising.lol

okay then why does she date white?

bish eat a sammwich on your way out the door

She can’t act, so she should get over herself. She should do all of us a favour and stay latina or whatever. All this tongue in cheek blah blah about her black roots is fooling no one.Be gone latina woman, and good riddance.

Shes so fabulous!
Yes its the Afri-American people, who have issues trying to stick us all in a little box because of this European influenced society we have been raised in.

Brown is a color not a heritage.

American can be ANYTHING… regardless of how much glorious melanin you have.
We all have histories regardless of the packaging and it is annoying when others try to tell you what YOU are. Its silly.

Sometimes I wonder if AA have real issues! Why are you so bent on Afro-Latinos?
I agree w/ Educated Goon when he said that she only likes “white di©k”

Look it’s o.k. just to be black…

if you look black that’s what others including Hollywood are going to cl.a.s.s.i.f.y you as

this never ending routine of people who look black going to pains to point out to others, especially whites that they have something else mixed in is tired. Most black people in North and South American and the Caribbean are mixed with something even when they are very dark skinned. But whites will still see them as black no matter what they say. Whites from all over the world happily consider themselves white without all this drama. people of African descent should do the same thing.

BTW most White people in the America’s are mixed with something else too…and alot of it is African…if they did Genealogical DNA Testing on everyone alot of eyes would be opened. But it really doesn’t matter people who look white would gladly continue to be white and people that look black would continue to vainly point out that they have other blood mixed in. In a vain attempt to convince Whites that they are the same as them to try and avoid racism and to portray themselves to other Blacks as Exotic or somehow better. We have to learn to love ourselves as we are and like it or not how we are is based mostly on how we look.

She looks great!

LMAO @ EVERYONE TRYING TO BE ANYTHING BUT BLACK – I GUESS BEING BLACK IS A CURSE TO THESE CONFUSED BROADZ…

This girl is barely European. Bye!!!

to REAL BLACK IS CHOCOLATE…
mixed is devil shit???? i’m mixed sweetie and you sound like an angry jealous black woman. no offense to any other black women. stfu and get some self esteem.

@realist

LMAO @ EVERYONE TRYING TO BE ANYTHING BUT BLACK

——————–

I know! you are so right all these “there’s one race the human race” “embracing all our roots” ish!

The militia’s are not arming cause we are all one race. The unemployment rate gap among similarly educated blacks and whites is not there because we are all one race.

Zoe, Halle, Rosario are pointing out any drop of other blood that they have in a desperate attempt to get roles. What they need to be asking hollyweird is “why do I have to explain my racial background to you all the time? I look black so why can’t I get a role without constantly reminding you that I have mixed blood”?

@lindsay

What’s your point? Zoe’s problem is she looks mostly black so hollywood is going to pigeonhole her. No matter how many times she points out she is Afro-WHATEVER…What she and other actresses like them need to be doing is combating discrimination in the granting of roles for women of color period. And not playing black when it suits them then playing latina or white when they think that will help them get publicity or roles.

@ black is beautiful Don’t F*ck it up
You said that so well! I wish I could have said it like that

yawnnnnnnn. its 2010 NO ONE CARES , NEXTTTT

@ bluekid

Hey there your AVI has been Killin me all day…I been meaning to tell ya. LOL!

Black is black. It does not matter if you were born in dominica, puerto rico, america. Cultures and language have nothing to do with heritage. No need to keep explaining. embrace your blackness, we come in all shades and color and speak different languages and born in different places.

I’m tired of her “I’m mixed with a lil bit of everything” quotes. Bish, you black.

She’s so fug… and skinny. Bleh. Anyway, these BLACK latinos always need to let everyone they are latino and not- God forbid- black. That’s why everytime you see one in the streets or in a store they start speaking spanish MAD loud so everyone will know they are not African-American… I swear latinos can be more f’ed up than black people when it comes to race and skin color.

I do agree that when it’s convenient for a role people embrace their blackness, but every other time they are everything, but black. Now I hear Shar Jackson stating she is spanish,indian and all this other stuff, but when she was on “Moesha” you never heard about what her racial mix was so I think everyone wants to be everything, but black. At the end of the day you are seen as you look, which in a lot of cases black.

As long as Zoe realizes that while she’s in America, she’ll always be considered a black girl with a funny name. Sometimes I get the impression, she considers bein’ interpreted as “BLACK” as some sorta’ albotross (But considerin’ she’s a non-white actress in Hollywood, I guess her attitude is warranted)

Ehhh whatever… No-body pays her bills so therefore if she wants to identify herself as a blue marsian then so be it.
FYI, if you are mixed, u are not one more than the other regardless of the azzholes who try to pigeonhole u into one race…

*martian*

I’m sick of Zoe. I’m puertorican and all but I can agree that I don’t see the African American women really represented. Why do they have to have this look (halle, thandie)to be offered all this work?? I personally like NIcole Beharie, Kerry Washington and Naturi Naughton but nobody cares about putting them in the cover of all these magazines.

Why are people chastising Halle and Zoe for dating white men?….last I checked Halle was half white! she and any woman for that matter can date who they want. Why do black people always believe people who are mixed with black are only exclusive to them. Halle dated black men and one beat her and the other cheated on her. Repeatedly. It’s all good though, cause they is black folks. SMDH

ZOE SALDANA IS A MIDGET THAT LOVES THE WHITE BOY’Z D!CK… BLACK PEOPLE DON’T NEED FOOLZ LIKE THIS – STICK TO UR LATINA CHIT..

how Zoe sees herself don’t do $#!t for me…nigglets always want to group others in their group so they can feel better about their @$$es…y’all nigglets hate yourselves so much it bleeds onto other people…crabs…

she’s not black latina anymore!!

Lol who cares if she prefers the white boyz…Some prefer the dark meat and others the white meat…. if it aint your man or your girl, how does it affect u…. lol investing so much time on someone else’s love life…
All colors are beautiful….love colors….love the rainbow…

I could care less about the rainbow cos that chit don’t do nothing for me – the only colors i like is: BLACK,BROWN,BLUE BLACK & RED… I can’t stand WHITE cos that chit attracts too much dirt…

I could care less about the rainbow cos that chit don’t do nothing for me – the only colors i like are: BLACK,BROWN,BLUE BLACK & RED… I can’t stand WHITE cos that chit attracts too much dirt…

@LaDiva
Lol!!!! Don’t get it twisted, i don’t hate WHITE people – i love every race – it’s just kinda sad that everyone wants to embrace every other RACE except BLACK; even in obvious circumstances when they look blacker than alot of black people… ROSARIO DAWSON,LALA VASQUEZ & ZOE ZALDANA SHOULD JUST DO A SAMMY SOSA TO SAVE THEMSELVES THESE H@SSLES…

BLACK IS YOUR RACE – LATINO IS YOUR HERITAGE….

@LaDiva
My d!ck don’t discriminate – it loves the rainbow.. Can i beat that fat @ss mami???

At the end of the day, whether we are blk white indian, u name it… we need to love all that we are and embrace every aspec of it…

how can she say that when she is always complaining about some of her features?
———————————————–
Or shagging w/the Euro/Anglo/Aryan set!
Love is love (or whatever) but it’s kinda hard to take her ‘ProBlack/African’ statements seriously when her actions scream otherwise!!
My fam’s tree is racially speckled but, however, I consider myself Nubian and mostly par with such!

Good for you Zoe, you realize your ancestral background. Now if the other millions of darker than Wesley Snipes latinos will realize they aren’t white. We could make a move against the MAN.

RRRRRRRRaaaaaaaaaaa
RRRAAAAAAAAAA
RRRRRRRaaaaaaaaaaaa
Boop boop!
That’s what I’ve BEEN sayin’!!!
Stepfather told me I can’t just yet b/c there’s too many selfhating/lost individuals that would prolly “set me up” or oust me to the ‘Man’.
But I’m down! Whenever you ready….HOLLA!!

This website is disgustingly racist. Blacks are the biggest haters.

Zoe that bytch failed!

@ Sindel, so true when black hate who they are by trying to say they are something else when they are just African. Be proud of that and live on.

im afro-cuban. (and im not just black when its convenient)i agree, she is kind of annoying. but she is completely right. i know of so many afro-latinas who fully embrace their latin heritage, and fully deny their african heritage. because the idea of “the lighter you are, the better you are” is so deeply rooted i alot of latin culture. look at sammy sosa as a prime example. he looks like a white man’s corpse now. the attitudes are so prevalent that ppl go to extreme lengths to lighten their complexion. its sad. and she is right, its disgusting. and im glad she said it in a spanish mag interview.

I get it, there is soooo much tension between the black and hispanic races, that sometimes it’s like a tug of war, when the black community tells u, ur black and thats it, and the hispanic community either wants u to pick one and say ur either black or hispanic. At the end of the day to deny one would mean u are denying a part of who you are. In my case senying my blackness would be denying my father, and denying my latin heritage as well as my caucasian heritage would be denying my mother so 4 those of u who cannot relate who have the opportunity to say ur just black congrats u get a round of applause but 4 those of us, who are fortunate enough to identify with more than one race, dont try to tell us about who we are or how to feel about what we are. U voice ur concerns 4 blackness we can voice ours 4 this fusion mix that we are!
~The BlackPortugal-Haitirican Princess~

@ OhmyM ulatto …

Think you missed the mark on this one b/c the convo-topic is based on ‘race’ – the physical characteristic I.E: skin color, to identify persons…not race – people identifiable by common language, culture I.E: the Dutch race.
No one’s advising you to deny your cultural upbringing BUT acknowledge the fact that you have melanin/Nubian features and is/would be/are considered NUBIAN (aka BLACK)!

But nevermind what ‘I’ say, since you’ve got alot going on/to consider…BlackPortugal-Haitirican…then would you therefore be considered a ‘mutt’?!!

it’s annoying how as soon as a black hispanic wants to claim the hispanic side, black people have a problem with it.
I can’t count the amount of times I’ve said to someone that I am Puerto Rican and they tell me not to say that because I look black.
SO WHAT?! YES I look black and embrace my black heritage, but i also grew up dancing salsa, speaking spanish, and dating hispanic men.. why wouldn’t I embrace that side of my culture?

Whatever, whites still think of you as a n***er.
She does look a little like Jada Pinkett-Smith, only a lot less rich!

ANNOYED

why you not datng black hispanic men? wh0re!

The idiots who can’t understand the difference between RACE & ETHNICITY never cease to amaze me…

Saldana is right.

THe Truth!!! At least she sounds like a smart woman. Better than these hoes standing around.

It is continually frustrating to see all of this vitriol aimed at a person who is successful and black. She is also Latina and since so many people (us included) want to know “where her people come from” she tell us. Then we get pissed of cause ” she jus’ aint ALL black ” and is proud of her heritage. My wife is of mixed race and I get all of these High Yela” comments because of it. So be it; however your continued hate of al of these people will in fact grow since we are getting browner as a nation not Blacker SO you wlll continue to see her and others like her. I agree folks is getting left back BUT if you continue to hate and NOT move forward by promoting all black people you will get left behind. Fewer Black dramas are being made because foreign distributors wont buy them. So do we continue to cry racism or build our own studios? bstonblkm@yahoo.com
BTW I am printing my email unlike all the haters who want to be anonymous cause they are cowards

First and foremost, being Latin does NOT refer to race you morons! You can be any race/ethnicity and be Latin. Secondly, black Americans are often looked down upon by other cultures like Latins because all the black American does is to focus on being black and how they have such a hard time doing this or that but very few of black Americans actually do anything to help promote a positive image. Additionally, black Americans still focus on skin tones, good hair, and trying to claim Native American blood more than their African heritage. So bottom line get yourselves together before judging another person’s culture and racial make up. Signed by a Afro-Puerto Rican!
