I get it that it makes sense that a person's race or ethnic identity is important when working exclusively with people of the same race or ethnicity. When they are in a position that deals with multiple groups shouldn't the person's qualifications be the only focus? You say this was a selling point, to who?

Answer the question...is there a reason you also left out that in the video you linked, she explicitly says her father's Columbian at 11:35?

Ahh

>having a father who's part Colombian, with a bunch of other stuff mixed in, isn't really a strong case for being Latin.

It actually is. But it isn't for people who are leaning racist.

I guess now we collectively should all call out your supposed Jewish heritage because maybe you're not pure enough as a Jew to be able to call yourself Jewish.

See how your argument that she isn't "pure enough of a South American heritage be considered Latino" is fucking terrible and racist AF?
