Moros y Christianos

Janet Kuypers
5/12/12

They call it “Moros y Chrisitanos” in Ecuador,
it’s just “Moros” in the Dominican Republic.
“Moros y Chrisitanos” means
Moors
(the Muslims in Spain)
and
Christians.
Now, because they think of Christians as whites,
“Moros y Chrisitanos” means
Black Beans and Rice.
