“Too black to be Latina” explores many instances where black people are being doubted if they state they are Hispanic or Latina. They are asked very insensitive questions and, in some situations, make reprimands which puts them in very uncomfortable situations. Also vice versa, when a Hispanic or Latina says they are black, it comes off as a shock to so many. To some it may come of as genuine curiosity and to others they just pass off offensive comments in states of not understanding how and why it is possible or so. It is heartbreaking to see people go through the emphasis and frustrations of constant negligence relating to incidences like this.
