back in the 60s when Ricans, Cubans etc started moving in they were in the crew with Black folks and didn't hide their Africaness then when they got some numbers they became not Black.
That is why I said to paraphrase identifying with the colonizer ain't cool anymore.
We been on that before we heard Fela and Tony Allen the originators of Afro beat or even the new wave which is heavily inspired by us in the DIASPORA.
