👌 for inviting Miguel but he is half black. his Mexican father. .he not all black Y’all always do that when somebody mixed just call them black.
“Mixed” he’s not a dog, he’s a human being. He’s bi-racial. That’s what he should be referred as. It’s not 1953. Biracial people should have their OWN identities.
DUHHHH,….He still not all black. He mixed like I said..
Duh what? You said just call “mixed” people Black and that’s what I responded to.
Duhh, Dumbo No I did not , you can’t read.
it is living black festival look at his hair compared to usher.. they should just called it something else instead of ignoring Miguel Mexican side cause his music is also from Mexicans to
I’m talking about the picture of Miguel with the longer curly hair.
