Default Dominican Republic and Mexico(Mulatto and Metizso)
Why is it that Dominicans can only be Black while Mexicans can be Metizso when Dominicans are of mixed raced too? I don't understand this. The one drop rule seems to only apply to people who are mostly of Black ancestry, but someone who is mostly Amerindian with little to no European ancestry in Mexico can be Metizso. It's just something I've noticed. Also, often you'll hear Dominican Republic is a Black country, but you'll never hear Mexico is an Amerindian country. I have seen more Dominicans that visually look more mixed than Mexicans I often interact and see to be honest, but no one would call them an Amerindian Latino, but would call a Dominican a Black Latino.
