As the Black Lives Matter movement spreads internationally, we’re looking today at one of the world’s most forgotten Black communities. In Mexico, Black people make up around one percent of the population.
CGTN's Alasdair Baverstock tells us in the first of two reports, equal rights isn’t the only battle they have on their hands.

I am a black Brazilian,it’s really hard to explain to Americans that Latinos/Hispanic is not race. Every time I tell someone I’m Afro Latino, they think I am from the DR or PR.Its crazy that Americans don’t know that there’s other races in South America,especially since Brazil holds the largest black and Asian population outside of Asia and Africa.

You are a descendant from the ancient 12 Tribes of the Israelites that God scattered across the world and mainly settled most of the Northern Kingdom on this side before the Europeans set foot in the Western Hemisphere. I didn't believe this at first until i watched a documentary on the hidden archeological history found in Mexico, Central and South America. I know Mexico is a mixed ethno nation and I know the descendants of the Spaniards are still pretty much the upper class and ruling Mexico. I always make a distinction between them and other Mexicans people that are my brothers and sisters from the 12 tribes. Shalom..

@@Rodrilechan Keep believing that lie LOL!!! Here's a fact for you. All so called Black people don't come from Sub Sahara Africa. Many of the slaves imported to America from the Atlantic Slave trade did not orginate from the places where they were found in West Africa. Many of them migrated from Jerusalem to Yeman and Africa in 70AD after the Roman Army destroyed Jerusalem. The12 Tribes are black and brown people mainly fouund in Africa, and were put on slaves ship later in their history and scatterd across the world and sold into slavery. Some remnants of israelites are still in Africa lke the Lemba People. Look it up. The bible states towards the last days before Jesus the Christ's returns they (Israelites) will remember their heritage. The bible also states when the 12 tribes of Israel return to land of Israel they will have servants and slaves. They will rule over their former oppressors and will be safe in their land at peace. Those things hasn't happended yet and it proves people like the Afro Mexicans, Blacks in the Western Hemisphere and Blacks in places like India & Pakistan (The Siddis) All fit the curses listed in Deuteronomy 28:15-68 There's also too much history being revealed that was hidden about this very topic. And even the Ashkenazi people in Israel have said they are not bloodline descendants from the 12 Tribes of Israel. You better go do some research. Cambridge, Duke, Harvard, Princeton and Yale Univerisites have very old documents and research literature supporting this soon to be known truth. But we know some people do not want this revealed becasue it has severe ramifications. Eitherway God is revealing this truth to his people that hear his voice. Good day... Shalom...

I once saw an afro Mexican woman singing our old hymns from the south where she migrated from to escape American persecution. She didn’t speak a lick of English though, but the song had been passed down through her family for generations. Idk it was just so incredible to hear her sing it in our accent, in English, yet she didn’t speak the language.

You mean go back to Africa? I'm going to be honest, here in Latin America many Afro-Latinos feel proud of being Latino and Afro-descendant, what I have seen is that they live happily here, I suppose it is not like in the USA where racism is very strong and that is why I understand that many want to return to Mama Africa, but I don't think Afro-Latinos want to return to africa because they see Latin America as a part of themselves, their home.

I live in Medellín. The trans Atlantic Slave trade was a lie. Black people are indigenous to the Americas, Asia, Africa, Europe, Australia, and everywhere. That include the so called Africans in Palenque, they are indigenous. The trans Atlantic Slave trade myth was created by the agents of the Vatican to justify the theft if the indigenous black people's land rights. How can you have land rights if your from Africa, taken as slaves, and not originally from the Americas, look up "Terra Nullius" and you will begin to see thru the Hoax we were taught in school.

Proud to have come from Afro-Mexicans. Beautiful people. My original ancestors were most likely Africans that were brought to Guerrero. They intermarried with Asians that were brought to Acapulco, Guerrero in the Manila Galleons. After that, they moved to Mexican states like Michoacán, Jalisco, and Guanajuato and intermarried again but this time with the Spaniard and Native population. I used to think I was like the typical Xicano that is only a Spaniard/Native mix. Turns out I'm part black, 1/3rd Portuguese, plus every race imaginable.

One of my uncle's former employees was Guatemalan, but I didn't know until I heard her speaking Spanish to one of the Dominican women that also worked for my uncle. I asked where were her roots from, then she informed me. Due to her regular style of dressing, her Locks, plus head dress, I secretly viewed her as "Mother Africa" in my mind. We had a good laugh when I asked has she ever had to check someone that was talking about her in Spanish in public. She said she's had to put other Spanish speakers in their place a few times.

I don't think there's a definite look that defines one as Mexican. I have family members who are white with colored eyes and others who are tan/dark skinned. Once we pry into our family history we will see where our ancestors came from. I'm definitely interested in finding out since a lot of Mexicans are quite mixed not only of Spanish and indigenous heritage, but a little of everything.

If they were to actually ask any one of these black ppl especially the elders, they would most likely tell them that their ppl always inhabited that land.

Maybe it's a good thing they never left their communities because in doing so they have preserved it. They're a beautiful people. It's ironic how many Hispanic and Latin countries can accept, even promote, white, blond, blue eyes Spanish people (who added very little to the food, music, and dance to these cultures) but yet people who are Spanish and Black struggle to get recognized. Everywhere you look, they want our rhythm but nobody wants our blues. That's ok. We are the first and we'll be the last ones standing in the end.

Mestizos are not a real category and, as a category, mean absolutely nothing. Furthermore, those to whom the label "mestizo" has been imposed are for that very reason not "natives" or "indians". Asking for afromexicans to be called mestizos because of them having also mixed with spaniards or natives is just trying to erase afromexican culture and having them assimilate to what is considered as mexican, precisely the problem.

I agree and also they hardly have opportunities to progress unless they Marry lighter skinned Mexicans. I met few of them and they had very low self esteem and I cried. African Americans are the light for people all over world. One didn't want to be known as Afro Mexican he said he is Cubano . He had no education because of his skin color.

And they aren’t nothing like that, my great grandmother was a black Mexican and she had the same opportunities as any other Mexican. This ppl actually own alota land but they live in very remote areas where there’s no development that’s why they been moving to other northern states just like other southern Mexicans. The southern states are very poor it doesn’t matter if you’re black or native or mestizo the opportunities are limited for everyone

I'm Mexican and I have nothing but love for my black Mexican brothers and sisters! Afro Mexicans have been here before Cortez and will remain. I know many afro Mexicans here in Baja California! Now can discrimination exist, absolutely, from both sides, to each other. Human's are dumb, some are good, let us never forget that. The afro Mexicans this video presented are from a small town....All small Mexican towns are forgotten, seriously, a town in Mexico can be a few homes, zero exaggeration. In Baja, go down the coast. You will think, "this is a town?" And so the notion of forgotten especially due to race being a prejudice is real but it is not due to skin color but almost entirely due to a different color; green. If you ain't got the money, you will remain a forgotten town, with no chance, unless you leave for a larger town or major city. Si, o no?

True, but they won't teach this in school because they want everyone to believe that every presence of a melinated person outside of Africa is due to their heroic efforts. Read old literature and the natives they describe are dark people who used bear grease in their hair...not the blonde and blue, Elizabeth Warrens living on many of the reservations, nor any of these other people who appeared after the real natives were washed out and replaced with Spinards and Italians.
