About
Rosa Clemente:
“The
message that she gave to the young people is that we should
be proud of their culture…”
“She’s telling every young person to know and
believe who you are, not what you hear and see, but from
the person you believe you are” Nyasia
“As
young people we should be teaching our parents and others
about who they are and where their ancestors came from,
which is Africa….” Maurice
What does Afro-latin@ mean to you?
“I can define myself as a Afro-latina
because I am African American and Latina and I am proud
of it and I represent both because I am both. I may not
know anyone in my family who is African American but I know
for a fact that my ancestors were Africans and Tainos. I
consider myself Afro-Latina and I am not ashamed to wake
up in the morning and know that.” Raisa
“Pensamos
que somos latinos pero la verdad es que todos venimos de
un solo genero: el africano…..No importa si somos
dominicanos, Puerto riquenos, mejicanos: todosa somos de
decendecia Africana.” Carmen
