Yet by claiming ‘color’ within the overall Euroamerican culture, Hispanic racism is masked, a racism detected in the construction of ‘mulato’ Christianity. While white Hispanic scholars of religion represent a narrative crucial to the overall discourse, informing and challenging dominant Eurocentric theological views, they too can fall into the fallacy of ignoring their own intra-Hispanic racism. This racism is generally evident in the overall Hispanic community’s denial that racism exists among us. Latina/o racism is rooted in the belief that we, unlike the Euroamericans, are not racist, even though the primary criterion of social classification has always been color… However, those of us who are whiter usually ignore the ethno-political and psycho-cultural ramifications of Hispanic white supremacy as manifested in our sociopolitical structures of power. White liberal paternalism, committed to integration, refuses to hear questions about racism asked outside of the official rubrics and thus establishes the boundaries of the discourse. Religious discourse and decisions concerning race among Latino/as from the Caribbean take place predominately among white Hispanic scholars of religion who enjoy the prestige and privilege of academia.

Some problems we share as women, some we do not. You fear your children will grow up to join the patriarchy and testify against you, we fear our children will be dragged from a car and shot down in the street, and you will turn your backs upon the reasons they are dying.
