AFROCOLOMBIANIDAD
Afro-Colombians' lives have been quite hard, because there are people
who discriminate against them because of their skin color and this has
created that some black people feel sorry for their skin tone, and do not
accept that they are black, despite the fact that in full 21st century
there is discrimination against these people, a month has been created
honoring Afro-Colombianism.
2. My point of view
Yes, I agree with the writer of the previous text, because it is true that
racist society has created that some black people feel shame for their
skin color, the part in which the writer says that the most affected
region is the one that lives around of the Pacific, it is true because the
armed groups take advantage of the fact that this area is jungle and
they hide to avoid being perceived, it is also true that the economic
situation of Afro-Colombians is quite difficult because in most of their
lives they do not manage to obtain high positions for its skin color.
