While In the Heights brings a level of Latinx representation to film that is rarely seen, there are
many who see issues with colorism in the movie. I have provided you with one opinion article on the topic, and I encourage you to look for more I possible. What does In the Heights get right about representation? Where does it fall short? Why do you think many people are bothered by the lack of dark-skinned and Afro-Latinx cast members in main roles? How does this film (intentionally or unintentionally) perpetuate colorism within the Latinx community?
