This is a very interesting video I found on YouTube. It starts off looking at how Latinos see themselves, but rather quickly switches to the topic of black Latinos. Mainly through interviews, it covers not only how black Latinos see themselves but how other Latinos see them. Very thought provoking. I should tell you in advance: this lasts about half an hour, so plan ahead to allow yourself enough time.
As you see, the video doesn't mention Afro-Peruvians and generalizing is sometimes a dangerous thing. But when you look at the standard of living of most Afro-Peruvians, you realize that their situation is pretty well reflected in what you see in this video.
OUR NEXT POST will be about ANOTHER FESTIVAL!
