Are Afro-Brazilians Latinas? I vote they are and someone else say no.?
Answers: Yes
Do you really need the sticky label? If the definition of Latino is someone whose native country speaks Spanish, the answer is no because Portuguese is the Brazilian speaking. If the definition is someone who was born within latin America the answer is yes because Brazil is part of it. If the definition is almost race, the answer is no, because 98% of Brazilians are mixed blood, so a black Brazilian will probably hold European blood as well. The best definition is lately Brazilian, and we are very proud of the mix of race in Brazil.
