Talk:Bernardino Rivadavia

Bernadino Rivadavia wasn't of African descent.
Neither source provided substantiated that Rivadavia was of African decsent infact the first source explains that he most likely wasn't and that his nickname 'Doctor Chocolate' was probably an insult from his political oponents rather than any reference to African ancestry.

''Morrone does, however, provide an important observation on the use of the term mulatto as a political insult (15). If in fact mulatto was, as the author intimates, an epithet employed to politically slander a rival, and not strictly a racial designation, this would put into question Reid Andrews's implication that Bernardino Rivadavia was in fact of African descent ("Dr. Chocolate" to his federalist enemies [see Andrews, 81-2]). If even blonde, blue-eyed Juan Manuel de Rosas could be called a "mulatto," then the term is polemical as a racial designation (especially in the case of elites) in nineteenth-century Argentina (15).''
