About this episode

The Red Table gets heated as the Estefans discuss colorism within the Latin community. 1 in 4 Hispanics identifies as Afro-Latino and many face discrimination from both their Black and Latin sides. Queer Eye’s Karamo Brown speaks candidly about how he grappled to accept his Cuban roots as a Black man, while singer and TV star, Amara La Negra, reveals how she experienced racism on the set of a popular television show. Plus, we break down the difference between Race and Ethnicity.
