[edit]

Mariah Carey was on the list of "Notable Afro-Venezuelans." Usually this is intended to be a category for people born in a country. Her father was part Afro-Venezuelan/part African-American and born in the US, and she was born in the US, with an Irish-American mother. That's a rather distant connection.Parkwells (talk) 02:03, 2 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Blacks

[edit]

This article says "3% of the population are blacks". its a joke? this analysis is made in a racist basis. i meant i from there and is impossible aprecciate that not there even a 10% of white population. i live in caracas, and is a fact that here white are just around a 5%, neither there are considerable mestizos in venezuela. The so-wide majority here is black people (+-95%, is a fact im not exagerating). when you go to any street of Central Venezuela you will want to change all this article that obviously lies. The 3rd country in the world, after Haiti and DR (excepting Africa), with more proportion of black people in its population is venezuela. --Vvven (talk) 10:16, 19 December 2015 (UTC) --Vvven (talk) 10:16, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

People that not should included as Afro Venezuelans

[edit]

Hugo Chavez and Lila Morillo are clearly mestizo people and not should be included in the Afro Venezuelans article, wikipedian users included these people as Afro or blacks due to they want that they be, not by the reality. Hugo Chavez said in various oportunities that he is of Spanish (European) descent and Black. so he should be considered Mestizo. Adittion he has whites features as the nose, his skin color that neither is "white" or "black".--Vvven (talk) 22:17, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
