“…Our findings strongly suggest that the negative effect of race on birth outcomes in Black Latina women is dependent on the US context for full expression. Because skin-tone discrimination persists within immigrant Latino communities (Haywood 2017 ), poor birth outcomes among US-born Black Latinas may reflect health effects of discrimination both inside and outside the Latino community. Further multidisciplinary investigations are needed to unravel the specific factors responsible for these observations.…”

“…Colorism—within-group discrimination based on skin tone, with the understanding that lighter is better (Montalvo 2005)—runs deep in Latino culture (Chavez-Dueñas et al 2014). Disparities in education, income, employment, and health in Latin American countries based on a hierarchy of skin color are well-documented (Telles 2014; Haywood 2017), with Afro-Latinos at the bottom of the pyramid (Chavez-Dueñas et al 2014).…”

“…There has also been some attention to Chicanxs within studies of the educational pipeline (Yosso, 2006). Nevertheless, not one of the proliferation of studies on Latinxs in higher education exclusively examines Afro-Latinxs or the unique experiences of Latinxs that center and assert their Black or African heritage, with the exception of Haywood's (2017b) study. Accordingly, the vast majority of higher education scholarship conflates Latinxs in higher education to either a racial or ethnic identity that is limited in terms of existing within a U.S. Black/White racial construction.…”

“…Our focus on colorism is central to understanding the socialization experiences of Afro-Latinxs because evaluations of their “Black” racial appearance (dark skin, curly or Afro-textured hair, etc.) and its perceived incongruency with their Latinx identity differentiates them from other Latinxs (Haywood 2017; Quiros and Dawson 2013).…”

“…Historically, racial socialization research has been conducted largely on African Americans, and it has increasingly expanded to include the ethnic socialization of Latinxs (Rumbaut 2009; Serrano-Villar and Calzada 2016). However, researchers rarely explore the socialization and identity formation of Afro-Latinxs (for exceptions, see Haywood 2017; Quiros and Dawson 2013; Romo 2011). Drawing on critical approaches to family, we take seriously “the roles that racialized systems and differentiations based on skin color play” both inside and outside of people’s family life (Burton et al 2010:454).…”
