As a BLACK PERSON from Brazil, I am extremely shocked by the absurd level of ignorance that part of the black population in the United States has about the issue of blackness in other territories of the American continent. As Asad Haider said, these are the Mistaken Identity.
To explain once and for all: "Afro-Latino" is not an ethnicity dissociated from black ethnicity. Both in the USA and in other Latin American countries there are black people who have lived there for generations, precisely because they were brought by slave ships from Africa. Black Latinos ARE BLACK PEOPLE! To deny this historical fact is not only to close oneself off from a world of territorial ignorance, but also to embark on the same identity nationalism that marginalizes the black population in the USA.

The city of Rio de Janeiro is a human town, despite the well known violence. People live close together and share a sense of care for each other. Street children walk in the streets of Lapa.

I was about 9 or 10 when I took that picture. I knew i was gay but also felt ashamed and was bullied relentlessly.
There was no social media, no internet, no accessible gay men of African descent to tell me that I鈥檓 ok, just me left to my own devices.
I was suicidal at times and very depressed. My parents were loving but in denial . My childhood was not a bed of roses but I survived and thrived!
I turn 56 in 2023 and I鈥檓 proud that I鈥檝e overcome an AIDS diagnosis in my late 20s when so many of my friends did not.
