about the racial hierarchies of the spanish empire
(if links worked properly in emailed posts, I’d link to the sources)
but it interests me that a mestiz@ from the americas is, like, two levels
or whatever above a mestis@ from the Philippines
(of course, anti-Blackness being the fulcrum, means that Black people are
at the very bottom of this hierarchy in all continents)
um…
all of this to say,
fuck the spanish.
