I too have noticed that the trend is moving toward having latina love interests for black men. I think its representing the "latin(o) craze thats hitting the world...
but also its representing this false idea that Latina women are somehow the best of both worlds. They can be cast as ghetto, urban hip hop choreographers in love with an urban black man (Jessica Alba) or as a smart charismatic detective (in Denzels new movie). They can be the romantic with Ben Afleck arguably one of the most attractive white men....as well as back that thang up as captain of the dance troop as well as love interest of the drummer in a historically black marching band...
