Is Jessica Alba a sell out?

[Calvin]

I always thought she was half black.

I always thought she was half black.

She did that one Honey movie and then decided she wasn't going urban anymore...too many mexicans and blacks were trying to get with her.

Huh? I think pretty much anyone here has seen enough of Alba's work to form un-prejudiced opinion by now.

 

[Abaddon]

Certainly not non-olive.

 

[MOIDANGEREUX]

If they let the eyes see and their brain get in the way of their prejudice then they would be able too.

Jessica Alba is....Cleopatra! Coming Summer 2009.

why do you care so much?

 

[Erzengel]

Because he hates Hispanics and thinking Alba is European is the only thing keeping him from going on a murderous rampage, killing anyone with olive skin in sight.

 

[MOIDANGEREUX]

Certainly not non-olive.

Why didn't you use the photo taken at the same age with her on the beach?

Maybe because that would explain the tan?

And he will do it dressed as his hero, Emiliano Zapata!

I think this is the best way to reply to a post like this.

Alba is of "European" ancestry!

ALBA

Usage: Italian, Spanish
Pronounced: AHL-bah
Means "dawn" in Italian or Spanish.
This is the point of this post. 1. Not of "Mexican descent. 2. Not "Olive Skinned".
Why does it matter? Alba is attacked falsely by racists!

NOTE:
Descent
Crystal Reference Encyclopedia - Cite This Source

In anthropology, the tracing of an individual's ancestry in the male line only (patrilineally), in the female line only (matrilineally), or through both males and females. Descent may be traced for various purposes, most commonly in order to regulate inheritance, or succession to office, or to define rights to the membership of groups. Some social groups may be defined by common descent. Anthropologists call such groups lineages or clans.


THEREFORE: Whether you trace Jessica Alba's decent through the matrilineal line(her mother is Danish and French Canadian) or the patrilineal line(her father through his partilineal line is of "European" descent as shown by the tracing of the "family" name).Alba is of "European" NOT "Mexican" descent!

Miss Alba is born in the USA. Her father, I seem to remember, too. That makes both of them American. I read somewhere that her father's father didn't speak Spanish in the house so that his children wouldn't get locked into the Latin-American subculture. From that it seems fair to conclude that her father doesn't speak any Spanish idiom.

Throughout my whole life, I've never felt connected to one particular race or heritage, nor did I feel accepted by any. If you break it down, I'm less Latina than Cameron Diaz, whose father is Cuban. But people don't call her Latina because she's blonde."

"My whole life, when I was growing up, not one race has ever accepted me, ... So I never felt connected or attached to any race specifically. I had a very American upbringing, I feel American, and I don't speak Spanish. So, to say that I'm a Latin actress, OK, but it's not fitting; it would be insincere."

Jessica Alba is not "Olive Skinned"

 

[Capt Throbberson]

This is getting creepy

 

[PLAS]

you know, all my life I thought she was a greasy mexican

 

[MOIDANGEREUX]

why do you care so much?

I've been a fan for years and I have seen the effects the racist have had on limiting her career.

There are a lot of movies I would have liked her to have had a chance at being in so I could see how she does.

Fortunately this year there will be some movies coming out that will give her a chance to show what she can do.

Thanks!

You mean tortas and sopes.

 

[PLAS]

so, what's the whole deal behind this thread?

besides of the fact that Jessica Alba is clearly trying to hide her clearly mexican heritage?

Oh, I see...
That makes sense!
You've been trying to fool the racists into thinking she's european so they wouldn't be racist to her. Sounds logical to me.

Pretty sneaky of you.

If she were more European she'd probably look less like this:
