Not quite the case in Mexico or in most of Spanish America for that case.

If Mexicans have a genetic connection to Spain, then why most Mexicans look like Native Americans and not like spaniards.

So much green, pretty much What I suspected.

Mexicans are pretty native with some European genetic input

That is a long way from being Spanish Descendants....



I have had the opportunity to visit Mexico I went to Mexico city. You watch their national TV and it's filled with blonde and white people.
You venture into the cities and everybody looks brown and indigenous.

I stayed around Colonia Roma, The people are pretty exclusionary, Brown people in the businesses in the area are often just maids or workers.

And what is more disgusting is that white Mexicans are not embarrassed to say that Their brown fellow Mexicans are of a lesser kind.

I hooked up with a man with brownskin and Typical Mexican features, I invited him For a coffee at a local bar, And he told me that he doesnt like to go Bars or coffee shops around the area because they would look down on him.

Here is the thing, even brownskin Mexicans make fun of brown skin Claiming they are poor and ugly doesn't matter if they have those same features. You cannot blame them, their TV pretty much excludes them , and presents white Spanish looking people of the ideal

I was raised not to see those things, So my strong personality collided with the passiveness of the Mexican people, You can clearly tell that Mexicans are a conquered people because they behave like it. Indians remind me of Mexicans because Indians also have those behavioural codes towards the British.

If you say so, then I guess it must be true.

I wonder what are you doing here?

[backpaker]

You see,I am here raising awareness, and encouraging many brownskin Mexicans to rise up, but this is a very uncomfortable truth for manyMexicans...

This is why they reply so defensively

I am not your enemy Mexican people I am an observer who wishes you equality and prosperity.

It is obvious that Mexicans are Native American descendants With some European and some minor African influence.

You try to make it sound as if Mexicans are Spaniards with some Native American touch to them.

What is even more sad is that Mexicans actually take offense to the fact that they are a largely native American Heritage people.
