"Genes africanos", ¿qué carajo es eso, desde cuándo los genes tienen nacionalidad?

I was told many many years ago that rice was founded by black Africans. But like everything else in black or African history it was hijacked and certain people get credit for putting another spin on history. Trust me, we're used to it.

Ay una cosa que no entiendo… Yo lo vi un video que se llama, "No es el color de piel, es la cultura que me haces Afro Mexicano"… Para mi ay casi no diferencia entre los Mexicanos de la Costa, y de ellos de otra partes de Mexico… Aunque ay gente de la costa de piel oscura, la mayoria de los costenos tienen la misma cara de todo Mexico… No lo vi ninguno costeno de Mexico que tiene cara Africano como los Afro Cubanos, o Afro Colombianos… La GRAN mayoria de los (como dicen) Afro Mexicanos tienen la cara o mirada Indigena y no de Africano…. La comida de los "AfroMexicanos" es casi igual de los Mexicanos de otra partes !!! Todos comen tortillas… Todos comen frijoles…. Entiendo que los Mexicanos del sir viven en lugares tropical y por eso ay ciertas comida tropical que se come pero no es porque tienen mucho mas sangre Africana que otros… No senor! El razon es el ambient ! Ademas el baile de los Diablos , la musica de los Afro Mexicanos es casi igual que ellos del norte…. Los Afro Mexicanos no tocan tambora Africana, y el sonido de su musica no tiene sabor Africano como La Rumba de Cuba, La Bomba Boricua, Merengue DOMINICANO!!! Para mi, el llamado Afro Mexicanos no es Afro Mexicano.. Para mi, Mexico es un PAIS de mescla Africana, y casi la mayoria de los Mexicanos tienen sangre Africana corriendo por sus venas !!

One reason the African heritage of Mexico is so hidden, and denied is "Everyone" in Mexico, or the majority of Mexicans, even the so called "Afro Mexicanos" denied this colonial heritage…. Before the reverend Glynn Jemmott who is of obvious African ancestry, came along, and helped Mexicans understand their African heritage, most of not all so called Afro Mexicanos denied their African heritage… This was due to 500 plus years of being told it is better to marry a white, or whiter/ lighter person para mejorar la Raza! Now Mexicans who have strong African phenotypes are bold in speaking of their African heritage… A heritage that was lost/ hidden in the colonial mindset of mejorar la Raza! Hardly any African – ness is left in Mexico ! Today the so called Afro Mexicanos have to YouTube African dances so they can re learn their lost culture ! Cuba is still very African! Their African music, dance, food, and religion is still very much in tact ! THE Africans of Mexico thought it was better to forget their African ways, and they chose to imitate, and teach their children the european culture which is well reflected in the so called Afro Mexicano lack of AFRICAN NESS !

Marco Polo Hernández Cuevas says at 0:40 "But the deference what I do is approach the subject from an African Centric (Afrocentric) perspective" . That's why so much misinformation on the truth of Mexican Culture!
