Nah, your Hispanic if your Puerto Rican. Your "Puerto Rican" if your Puerto Rican, simple as that. You might look black, but YOU only WANT to be "black" because your in the states. Anyways, your probably better off being "black" and calling yourself black because acting black or anything that has to do with being black is what's most socially acceptable. ATM, if your black, your cool, simple as that and the Hiphop culture is a big reason for that because it's mainly dominated by blacks. That's why you call yourself black, you like Hiphop and you like everything that revolves around what blacks do within the hiphop culture. But in reality, your really not, your just a spic like me. Your just using your physical characteristics or color of your skin to consider yourself African-American, which infact your not, your Puerto Rican-American, as I'm a Mexican-American. Stop jocking another race dog, be yourself. I know you might look black, but show your Latin roots as well homie because that's where you come from, more so than you do from Africa. There's no reason you should be saying "nigga" and other $hit like that, that ain't part of your culture or my culture, that's apart of the African American culture, that's non-hispanic. One of my good homies comes from a highly beaner family, but the homie looks white, pale white and white facial structure, if he wanted to he could pretend to act white, be mamon and what not, but he doesn't. He speaks spanish when needed and not embarrassed to do so like so many fucking bitches are, bumps Los Tucanes, Chalino, Vicente, Tigres, whatever the fuck, because he's MEXICANO. Respect your roots.
