    Default Mexico: Poder Prieto/Dark skin power

    A new movement has erupted in Mexico and that is "Dark Skin" Power/Poder Prieto, I will post examples of the prietos that are being celebrated or part of the movement in Mexico, if you are non-mexican, you can post examples of what is considered a prieto in your country, I know some have a different definition

    what more interesting to me is that many are not "prietos" but tanned/olive/light brown, I think majority of these examples would not be considered prietos in Latin America. I say this because I recently watched a video of a Mexican girl who her skin ton is more olive but she claimed that in Mexico she was called a prieta and that they would tell her that she had mud skin (piel de lodo"), the non-Mexicans Latinos were telling her that she was "white" skin and nowhere near a prieta or a morena. And I have notice this a lot on TikTok with what we Mexicans see as brown/dark vs what non-mexicans see as brown/dark. I can probably post so many examples here to prove my point. In Mexico, brown can range from olive to dark skin like tenoch huerta, it is not just those who are on the darker spectrum

    this is the mexican girl from tiktok who described herself as a "morena"
