A part from my Ethnocentrism Essay...
All my life people look at me funny because once they hear me speaking Spanish, they believe that I’m fully black. That’s understandable because I don’t fall under the stereotype that “All Dominican girls have pretty long hair and are lighter skinned”. Once in a while, people come up to me and say “ You speak Spanish !?? Oh my gosh , I thought you were fully black !”. To me, its very ignorant that someone would say that to me, but I guess I’m that book that is judged by its cover. :)
