vagabondaesthetics:
I don’t mean that in the sense that there were or are zero white/light complected Latinos. I mean when did this become the prevailing thought in the US? I was looking through the teams on my Negro League jacket and there sits the New York Cubans. It’s hard to put out a timeline for how long the…
