NEGRITA Documentary- Fundraising Trailer 2014

NEGRITA is a documentary about the Afro-Latina identity and experience in the United States.
Black Latinos/as are often overlooked or dichotomized as either "black" or "hispanic" in the United States. However, according to the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) , Hispanic or Latino origin can be viewed as the heritage, nationality group, lineage, or country of birth of the person or the person's parents or ancestors before their arrival in the United States. Hispanic or Latino origin is independent of race and is termed "ethnicity" by the United States Census Bureau.
NEGRITA highlights individual unique Afro-Latina experiences within a broader racial and ethnic range, while revealing psychological and social factors that add to the confusion, uncertainty, shame and affirmation about one's self-image of being both "Black" and "Latina".
NEGRITA: Racially Black. Ethnically Latina.
