Alexandra Diodonet reading reflection 10

When reading “Too Latina to be Black, Too Black to be Latina” her reading was good in my opinion, from someone who is Latina and Italian I believe that it doesn’t matter what race you are you should feel welcome because of who you are proud of and where your family is from. Throughout the decades I have seen the other community not represent people because of their race, besides Latina, I have heard stories either on social media or from people that people don’t feel welcome in their own ethnic community because of their race, they treat them as an outcast and I believe that is not fair. Everyone should be treated with the same respect you’ll give in your own community. Everyone is human and people always say to love everyone no matter what, but what’s ironic is the fact that they wouldn’t love people with the same nationality but a different race, race, and nationality or two different things and I believe people are not seeing it that way. To me personally, I find it to be interesting where people of different races commuters who are also their nationality, it shows how creative people through generations are and it can show love to not only our own race/nationality but other races as well. We are people who deserve love and respect no matter who we are and people need to open their eyes to see that it doesn’t matter if they have a different race they still feel welcome with their nationality and be proud of who they are.
