For Black folk that didn't grow up speaking Spanish *only*:
Question:
* Why don't the other South American fans like Argentina?
* Why do so many of the good and kind players and fans from Argentina ♥️🕊️make such a big point of being vocally anti-racist?
* Why did nazis choose Argentina?
Why do most countries in South America have people that are Black, white, indigenous, and mixed, but Argentina (and Uruguay) seem super white?
Answer:
Blanquemiento.
History tends to only talk about the ethnic cleansing campaigns that *almost* worked. It skips over ones that *did* work
