@heycarinaxo: A constant conversation I had growing up in Chicago as a kid. Was always told by other I was adopted. To the point I started to question it as a child. 🙃 #ignorance #puertorican #growinguppuertorican #mixed #ihaveonedaughter #fyp

all this trend has taught is that people do not understand how race, ethnicity, or genetics work.

You know what I don’t understand? Is how after 14 yrs, my son’s grandfather asked me about speaking Mexican, but I’m Puerto Rican and Peruvian. Sir…it’s been 14 years. Come on, now.

I fear this happens to me, I am Puerto Rican and my race is white. The amount of people that can’t connect the dots is insane. I fear someone will ask my kids one day, “ How are you Puerto Rican if your mom is white” 😭💀

I was asked if I was adopted because my mom is fair skinned and I’m darker. We’re Cuban, people forget a whole household will be different races with the same DNA 🤣
