So one thing is that in PR Krug wouldnt be Black/Trigueña/Prieta at all. She relied on AngloAmerican one drop ism to be able to claim Blackness y ya. I wonder if she was even privy to the terms we use in PR & how one drop helped her avoid that part of the discussion
two things: afrodescedientes in PR use different terms for color etc

One drop doesnt exist for us

Ppl use one dropism to their advantage in a way that allows them to side step accountability for how they treat other Blk ppl. We& #39;ve seen it.
In the same way that mestizaje is used against Indigenous and Afro Latines to silence and erase them in the wider scope of "Latinidad" with some & #39;we all mestizo& #39;

no
we& #39;re not
