So, I see a lot of non-black Latinos talking about Rodner Figueroa. That's cool and all, but....
-
-
Yeah, Rodner Figueroa got fired. Good. But what about the segment itself?
-
Come on, now, non-black Latinos, I'm looking at you: why aren't you talking about how this segment was about blackface makeup?
-
It's easy (I hope) to be like "Rodner Figueroa did some racist shit saying Michelle Obama looks like an ape."
-
But it's not all that much harder to say, "Hey, this show also happened to be doing a segment on blackface. And that's also not ok."
-
This is what Rodner Figueroa and the show was talking about, this nbpoc that dons blackface: https://instagram.com/pochoy_29/p/vDzSCRGO_q/ …pic.twitter.com/p52WEzwy5r

@aurabogado my latina partner and i were talking about this, how@Univision is racist (and sexist, classist, y todo) across the board. -
@aurabogado we were like, "what,@univision suddenly has an anti-racist conscience? then they would have to scrap the whole channel+ -
@aurabogado ...and start over, including@Televisa's novelas (which we watch a veces, I admit). Good@RodnerFigueroa was fired+ -
@aurabogado ...but@Univision's problems are much deeper. As this blackface segment proves.
