Lmao- "I know a couple that one woman, she speaks Spanish and her husband...you know...is Black". Not sure why the assumption is that Black people can't speak Spanish.....
well i think you’re looking at it then wrong way. Yes obviously a black person could speak spanish,but a lot of black people don’t know how to, it just depends where you are at and how and around who you grow up around. So In american you’re not expecting a black person to speak spanish.
@@sxperiorluis so where just going to pretend that a certain percentage of those with Hispanic ethnicity aren’t Afro-Latin and are black as well as native Spanish speakers. Dominica is the best example here, because the vast majority of them are Black and last time I checked their all fluent and native in Spanish. 🙄 So she is right, it is very wrong to assume that black people probably don’t speak Spanish because there black😒
I had the same comment. What she should have said is that the mom speaks Spanish and the dad speaks English (or some other language). Just saying that the dad is "black" gave me no additional context about what language he spoke, just that he likely didn't speak Spanish in this example.
Thanks for the video. We humans are all cut by the same scissors, no matter how weird is our culture: we want to live with love and joy and avoid suffering, and only that can be gotten in healthy social relationships. And that can only be achieved by stop being ignorant of our simplest and deepest nature.
To a certain extent people do need to assimilate to the culture. One example is the adoption of the same language as it is the main way we communicate. If we can’t communicate properly with each other, then it leads miscommunication and societal clashes. So there are people who come to the US don’t bother to learn English but expect Americans to speak their language for their convenience.
Not sure why she rolled her eyes when she said "American" in quotes...what she is saying acculturation meand is what most people think of as as assimilation in this day and age. The key is that people have primary loyalty to the society they moved to and its values. It's essential to a functioning and flourishing society
