Celebrity Trainer Massy Arias On Being Black And Latina | MSNBC
I love her! You rarely hear Dominican women identify with the African roots
Not all Dominicans have African roots. Some have European roots, others have indigenous Indian roots.
Some are triracial.
Tudor Miller all Dominicans have African roots no matter the skin tone.
@@tudormiller8898 okay but she was only refering to ones of dark toned skin that were of african descent though. Many people on this planet are tri racial. So am I
How I can hide my big lips and big booty that I carry with honor and pride? I am Dominican, mixed and proud.
I love her! Repping for Afro-Latinas everywhere!
Im so proud of her knowing who she is. Im Half American and Hispanic with Asian and Native American roots. My mom was from America 🇺🇸 Full Black Woman and My Father was From Cuba 🇨🇺 Mixed Afro Latin . And i love my roots 😌 it can be confusing sometimes because people want you to identify as who they want you to be, but I will always identify as what i truly am ❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺😝🔥
I started following her when she wasn't known at all and now she is everywhere so happy for her!
We need more role models like Massy Arias! Thank you!
CT Lew for sure. Definitely
Black and brown partnerships not just romantic relationships but all relationships. Love this ❤️
"Brown and latin" technically
Rep Massy!!! I'm Panamanian myself. Black and Latina as well. Latin is not a race, remember that people! Embrace your true self!
Bubblepop Luv AMEN
Bubblepop Luv Yes but also remember not all Latinos are of the black race.
Rizzoli Careyoli "you can't win with black people!" Must run into alot of people who are colorist and uneducated in what race means! I would think it's the non minorities who doesn't understand, especially knowing American history alone...I'm black and American btw and I have to constantly teach people about race and nationality! This African descended woman from the Latin nation of The DR is a beautiful representation of Afro Latina and did a great job of explaining the term👍👍👍
Bubblepop Luv 👍
Latin derives from having Spanish descent which is European, so sick of America the only people who focus on someones skin!
what a wonderful woman. So transparent with her struggles and her wins. Very inspirational!
She is gorgeous
For someone who knew no English her English is perfect.
english can be learned
I don't get it. What you really trying to say?
@@ricdaphree7759 ... I don't think she meant to be insulting.
My best friend is PR & he has not mastered the English language, and has been here since the age of 14... he is 50 years old! Maybe she encountered people like my friend. I have asked him why his English isn't better and he says, "watch it!!!!" ok... never answered the question... and... he has the nerve to get insulted when people don't understand him! LOL!
PS: ... he actually feels more comfortable speaking in Spanish.
For god's sake, you live in a country you speak its language. No one is born knowing a language!!
BEAUTIFUL interview! Her answers were INCREDIBLE! She has a genuine aura about her that makes her SO SPECIAL. 💫
I believe you mean "Aura" lol
I love that I’ve started attempting to do Massy Arias’s Mobility Training. It has changed my life.❤
i love her spirit, so humble, so gracious and just an awesome love for people.
Massy, you are a great inspiration not just for women but for all who strive to become a better version of themselves.
Loved her the Second I seen her 🥰 ( Physique, Complexion & Face) .. Watched her Show and Subscribed IMMEDIATELY .. Now to hear how she EMBRACES her AFRO - Latina makes me REALLY LOVE her 😍😍😍 ( Especially being Dominican) .. Will SUPPORT your Show FOREVER .. God BLESS
Such an intelligent and self aware person
I absolutely love her
I love her. She's such an inspiration
Love that "In life you never lose you either win or learn" YES
Native Indian, West African, & European is the mix of caribbean Hispanics. Brown, Black, & White!!!
GUO SHU TRAINING ARTS South African you mean m the majority of their ancestor were from Angola
Some Southern blacks have the same heritage.
Technically, the word Hispanic is a term the census created for only Mexicans in the 1950. Latin has evolved to encompasses all Spanish speakers however, Spanish, Latin, Hispanic... is not a race.
Exactly, that’s why I ID as multi racial. I love all of my ancestors.
@@bibilove6277,,, as you should. You are "Who" you are because of "ALL" of what you are. "One drop" of "ANY" blood does not negate all that you are mixed with.
I absolutely love her. And she's so inspiring.
My daughter is too Black/Latina! You make me proud as to how you embrace your wholeness! Now it's time for me to get moving!
Just curious, when you say black are you referring to Jamaican, African, Belize, etc.?
Latina is not a race, it never was, it is a cultural identity, so it is incorrect to say Black/Latina
I love woke Dominicans and I love her. She's smart, successful, and inspiring!
What is a woke Dominican
@@ImRunningazoo A Dominican like my Fiancé who know their history. Who know that they are the descendants of strong stolen people who were taken from their land and brought to DR by the Spaniards to work the sugar cane fields. Someone who knows the difference between Ethnicity and Race. Someone who knows the difference between National Identity and Race. Someone who has learned their history and did not allow propaganda or white washing to stop them from embracing and learning the truth. That is a WOKE Dominican and I Iove Massy Arias and my Fiancé for being one of them!
Thank you Massy for acknowledging your roots on BOTH sides! You are SHERO!! love you too!!
She seems so genuine and intelligent. 👍
Love her!! go massy! big fan from Trinidad an tobago
We didn't know you before we watched this video. Your decision to "embrace" your African ancestry has made me an instant fan!! May you experience much success!! Ephesians 3:20 (TPT). Peace
Much respect to her after watching. Keep doing your thing, Massy.
very inspirational! thank you for this!
She is beautiful :). I am a black Brazilian (lighter skinned) who grew up in the US. I don't understand the black/Latino identity crisis that many Latinos have. In Brazil, most black Brazilians proudly identify as such. I find it odd that blacks in the Spanish speaking countries like the Dominican Republic somehow try to deny the obvious. Kinda weird.
Man, I am such a fan. You claim your skin color and I've lived in NYC and MOST don't, so koodos to you for claiming ALL (todos) of yourself!
She is a HUGE inspiration to me. I love her! Gracias por todo and mucho
inspiración , Massy! ^_^
With all we’ve all gone through Massy yto find an interview with you is always uplifting. Would love to see more of you. Cuídate un fuerte abrazo.
She's awesome. Very inspirational.
Great talk, I love how she didn't deny either aspect of her heritage.
I just found Massy channel a few days ago and I can honestly say that Inlove her videos. Great interview 👍

So pleased I found this girl! You are an inspirational and motivating. When I feel down, I just look t your pics, I am not a quitter either. I will be looking like that some day, baby steps!
Black and brown is beautiful! Afro-Latina ❤🫶🏽💪🏽
She is my hero✨
Latino is a culture not a race.
+Sherrell Burton Mixed race
+Mike C that's not true. That denial thing is not common.
***** you said that they're brainwashed, in denial, they self hate themselves, and are eurocentrists. That's just not true.
***** how is it true? The burden is on you. You're the one making the claims.
***** yes, I know what I said. Can you explain to me what makes you say that it is true? How do you know that it is true? You were the first one to make claims. Back them up.
Her story is inspiring ❤love her
I LOVE her ❤️! Helping to change my life 🙏🏽! Thank you
Great story, young lady. Keep shining your light ✨️
❤her, such an inspiration!
Beautiful women i first seen her on the Doc show. Glad she knows her roots and her excersises inspire me to get up and go ! She has a beautiful family.

I love this beautiful, authentic woman! Massy Arias is worthy of admiration!
God bless you Sister
God bless you, u are a beautiful strong woman 🙏🏾
very smart and proud of her
This is super funny because I have seen her post on Facebook that she is Dominican and to stop posting her on Black love pages. Afro-latino people are always so confused and never love their African/Black side
Vinessa Hardai I saw that to and commented on her ig. She tried to clear it up and claim black again in the comments🙄
When she clarifies her Nationality and Ethnicity, she is not leaving her race aside. My question here to you is Black love page a community page for black Americans only or I’m wrong, if so, she is not black American she is Dominican.
Tammara Wilcox honey her race is Black, she is not African American is that what you are referring then I agree with you because she is Dominican not African American. nationality and race is something very different it can’t be confused.
Her husband is black, so...
I love her.
Wow she is gorgeous
beautiful woman, beautiful spirit.
Massy is a great role model !!!💯💯
Sound reasoning, good for you!
I just love her!
totally love her! wow wow!!!!
she's amazing
Amazing lady! ❤️
I really like Massy. She's very humble.
This woman is my new idol❤️💯
I love you even more now that I heard your story❤❤❤
well said sis..
She's still fit!!!! Didn't know she was this old tho..😮
As cool as it was to hear her proudly admit to and identify herself with being a black ("brown" technically) woman and even low-key call out the hypocrisy of dark-skinned dominican women (and the majority of latin people in general) denying where their skin color truly originates from, she should definitely do more to cater to black ("brown") people as much as she does to latin people. Every piece of beneficial and helpful info and advice should be offered to black ("brown") people the same as it is to latin people.
I love this woman...
Wow she's real so real
I love Massy! 😊❤
I love you Massy!❤️
She said it the Best you never loss ( you either Win or you Learn )
I like that interviewer. Those where great questions.
She's so Beautiful keep training and God bless you!!
Awesome!
