Human beings are not born racist. Implicit bias, racism and colorism are learned behavior. As an Afro-Latina immigrant from D.R. who moved to the U.S. I've witnessed colorism and systemic racism both in my home and adoptive lands. Do the work, get educated, challenge yourselves, it is really up to us to affect change. Ednin D. Martinez an Afro-Latina attorney and writer who at a young age discovered a strong desire to effect change through social justice, leading to a career in the law. In her career, she represented low-income and disenfranchised individuals as a non-profit and government attorney.
Simultaneously, Ednin pursued her passion for creative writing by participating in prestigious writing workshops like Kweli, VONA Voices and Writing Our Lives. Most recently, she published a non-fiction personal essay titled “When I Was Brave” in Harvard University’s Palabritas.
Through her writing, she aspires to shed light on the racial and economic disparities in the Dominican Republic as well as systemic racism in educational and legal institutions in the U.S. She is currently working on a memoir entitled “Every Little Girl From San Pedro,” highlighting these same themes. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

You need to explain why Michael Jackson bleached his skin white except his testicles and changed his facial appearance to European and straightened his hair It's thing goes for all of you Afro-Americans who have straightened your hair with hot irons and chemicals. and have made Taiwan China millionaires with all the fake straight extensions because you do not accept your tight curly hair that does not grow. Why did Michael Jackson buy white children? you Afro-Americans have a very serious inferiority complex. What is worse you all falsely claim to have Native American blood in you when your obvious appearance can't be denied that is from your motherland land Africa. That is what you should be teaching your children and you should tell all Afroamericans to accept your God-given natural looks. Forget Sammy Sosa look at the people who is around you.

Thank you so much for this TED talk. I just came back from the DR for my son's wedding. I could not believe the rudeness and racism I experienced at the resort I stayed. I was unaware of this mindset of some natives and never experienced it in other Latino countries I've visited. I was ignored in the restaurant, I left the bar tender a $5 dollar tip and he put his head down, never acknowledged me nor said thank you. I never felt so unwelcomed while on vacation . Thank you for being a positive change maker and sharing your story. SALUTE!

It was very enlightening to hear your personal story. We rise above weak people that need racism to feel better about themselves. They need a scapegoat to blame their own failures in life on. Once you recognize their weakness you can then put it all into perspective. It doesn't matter the color of your skin, but it is the content on your character that determines the kind of person you are. Strut your stuff beautiful lady. Your heart & mind is the essence of who you truly are.

Only American born immigrants of pure European blood are counted as Cuban, Spanish American, Mexican, and West Indian All these natives of the Western Hemisphere,”together with American Indians and Negroes are included with the Magyar, Turkish, and Armenian races in the term“All others,” the sixth grand division of immigrant races as classified by the Bureau of Immigration.The immigration statistics of the race are of no significance so far as Africa is concerned, for only 15 are recorded as having come from that continent in1907.The American is the smallest grand division of mankind, numbering, with half-breeds, at most or half the population of the next largest race, the Malay. Of these, only live in the United States. Indians do not appear by name in the statistics of the Bureau of Immigration, and the few who may come presumably are counted among "Other peoples.” Since the term Spanish Americans,”under the statistical rules of the bureau, "excludes Indians", presumably "no Indians" are counted in that division of the Spanish race in America called "Mexicans", "nor among immigrants from the West Indies and Cuba who are not Negroes(see these)". It is evidental so that if there be any Indians among the immigrants who came from Canada in1907.

Trujillo wanting to change the ethnic population in DR and committing a massacre on the island is something he clearly inherited from his haitian side of the family. It was Boyer who sent many africans from America to DR during the 22-year invasion because, according to him, dominicans were too white. Ironically, those from America supported the dominicans during their fights for the 1844 indepence and became Dominicans after that. Haitians even refered to dominicans as "spaniard" even thought they've been known as dominicans since before the french even invaded the island and before they even brought in today's haitians for the first. Dessalines committed a massacre against the dominican population and would have killed every single one of them as his promise in the "liberty or death" of 1805 if it wasn't for France sending help.

If one has to structure society and continuously suggest or tell the world that they are superior, it’s probably because they are not. If you were truly superior, you would close your mouth because there’s no reason to state the obvious.

Woman, you look too beautiful do not pay anybody no attention when you find the US people want to make you think something wrong with you. There’s nothing wrong with you. There’s something wrong with them so I love you very very much. I really do you’re a part of us, and we are part of you. Continue being yourself and don’t ever apologize for who you are. I love you. You have the bloodline of royalty.
