VIDEO : How Mexico Praising Yalitza Aparacio Is Problematic

A Huffington Post writer recently addressed Mexico?s hypocrisy over ?Roma? star Yalitza Aparicio. The Mexican actress is the first indigenous woman to be nominated for an Oscar. Although Mexicans are showing excitement over the actress, they have a history of racism against people with darker skin. The Huffington Post writer said: ?In Mexico we discriminate against brown people even if we?re brown.? The writer then challenges readers to reflect on how they treat and view people who look like Aparicio.
