Why latinos dont like blacks

I can look you in the eyes and assure you that I do not owe everything to black america. I owe not everything to brown america. I owe everything to the upbringing my parents gave me. To the daily, faithful, painful, struggle that they both underwent in order to attempt to provide their son with a better education and a brighter future.

Leaving their hometown in Michoacan while still being teens and also carrying with a 3 year old son on an unknown journey towards a never before seen country was surely not an easy endeavor. I am grateful they made it. I owe everything to their struggle and there drive to fulfill their dreams. Also, white jealousy of black equity creating prowess moved them to prop up non-Black groups like latinos incessantly to marginalize and dismiss our ancestral labors.

Two things. Mendez vs Westminster is but one of the legal precedents that T. Brown was just larger in scope and impact regarding race. All struggles are dynamic and important. As you know, Sean Monterrosa was,Latino, was shot in Vallejo, Ca unarmed on his knees ,and with his hands raised above his waist.

Finally any Black person who claims that Black community activists in cities throughout America have not pivoted to attempt to solve black deaths caused by communal violence is , well,not woke.

A lucha continua! Latinos aka Spanish and Portuguese literally were the enslavers who created a system of white power throughout the Americas.

It is inclusive of all settler states. It is inclusive of all geographies going south. But is it racially inclusive? Not at all. If it was people would not need terms like Afro-Latino or Indigena to describe themselves. A few interesting points…. Stop racism by learning to remove all racial labels from both discrimination and privilege, advantages and assistance for wealth that all individuals do not have.

Remove all minority labels, privileges and benefits the same way you remove all majority labels, privileges and benefits from race, gender, religion and only compete as individuals. This power is reduced only when the existing concept of racial labeling is eliminated in all its forms and laws regarding racial identity group self-association and institutional racial power are held in check by racial labeling laws held equally to all equally without prejudice or discrimination or privileged affirmative action, section 8, or privileged admission to school or job based on race, gender or religion preferences, privileges and institutional power based on the race of the person holding hiring power or admissions power being an institutional racist by always associating with a race and identity group and oppressing all but the members of their own race.

Stop racism by removing all identity group labels and claim only equality as an individual. We are trying to decided what to do right now by what happened in s.. I was raised in an all black neighborhood and was jumped and harassed daily..

I got the hell out,blacks are probably the most racist people on this planet.. My trust for black people took a hit because all of the violence,crime and total disrespect for other races.. We all are great and we all suck.. To react with looting,burning blacks neighborhoods,stores is crazy.. White boys with all that privilege are the most killed by police by far.. This is going on in every country sep Africa..

People demand respect,but you have to earn respect,in all races communities there is work to be done,but blacks need to take responsibilities for their action,take on the gang issues if they plan on living the American dream.. They ask for tons of money for schools and social programs every year,throw money at issues and nothing changes,it just gets worse.

As simple as that. Try again…. This is one of the stupidest, most counterproductive posts I have ever seen. The black community has not done a thing for us. Not a thing! The black community has always worked for the black community.

The author is insulting the history of the work of Hispanics in the US. Worthless post that marginalizes the Latino struggle for civil rights. Is the author of this article even Latino? The author also ignores the racism and discrimination that Latinos have faced on a large scale from Black-Americans. Lots of black-Americans have supported the anti-immigration cause and called for boycotts of the Dominican Republic due to racial reasons. This article is definitely an opinion alright and the wrong one for sure.

To say we owe Black people anything is a form of malinchismo. I could either write a whole paragraph on how wrong you are or I can let you know this article is a joke and a spit in our face. Research it before writing racist garbage on the internet. That lawyer is the one that convinced justice judge Earl Warren to protect Latinos as an ethnicity for the first time since we were consider White before under the U.

That being said, Gustavo convinced the United States supreme courts to also protect us as an ethnicity under the Equal Rights Protection Clause of the 14th amendment. This allowed the Bill of Rights the first 13 amendment to apply to us Latinos way before the Civil Rights Act of If anyone should be grateful that someone opened the door to the Civil Rights in the s it should be Blacks that have forever swept all the rest of our history under the rug with their racist rhetoric all over the bias media.

This article makes me sick on how twisted and untruthful people lie about my ethnicity. Also, this case allowed mixed juries since. Stop the bs. Thank you. Well said. Latinos and Hispanics we need to stick together fight for our rights and we want our history to be taught in school as well. Then go back to your country in Latin America and stay there. Multiply down there. I learned so much in the comments.

I have native American friends who have told me the truth. Mexicans are in truth the original natives of this land. Whites came, killed off whole tribes now they are returning under the name given to them.

I am African American. I knew a couple of Mexican women and men in my time, and they were never racist towards me. They were loving and kind much like their ancestors, and I respected them deeply. However, am not dumb, and I know how racist non Black people can be towards us. That being said. Givem a name, divide them by color, and kill them slowly. I for one plan to move back to West Africa where my ancestors were stolen to be used as free labor to build this country. I feel all Black people born in America should.

God Bless the Mexican movement of progress and fortitude in this country. I know who you truly are. Instead, we rise up by becoming educated, hard-working taxpayers, and contributors to society. We reject your attempt to force co-mingling… for we never want to erase our own proud history and legacies!

Stop harassing our street vendors! Talk to your young black cowards that sucker punch old people! You want Latino support? Fix your own problems first, stop your senseless bullshit against our immigrant populations! My family and I worked hard for everything we own. What exacty do we owe blacks? Tell your young black coward males to stop harassing and sucker punching our street vendors!

Pass the word…Just for Latino Street Vendors! All Lives Matter. Imagine being this much of a cuck for blacks. Blacks are hostile force that want to crush Latinos and control us both on every level including politically and sexually.

Hispanics need to STOP supporting them. We dont bow down to nobody. With the way black americans try to block us from having political and economic power to their campaigns of cuktural erasure, we dont owe them anything else but a war to maintain a separate identity.

They just like whites are guests in our hempisphere. So are the white Spaniards …. We dont worship anyone. Accusations of racism are a last ditch effort and sgn of your fear of our numbers and our power. Call us what you want. We out number you and will never follow you.

We are running things now. Also using the fact that Europeans stole Mexican land, to deny how you benefit from the black struggles is almost as lame as using your personal experiences to negate the benefits of the black civil rights movement on all minorities. It simply states that the enslaved people primarily from Africa set the foundation for which minorities like Latinx benefit in present day America. Remember this…. We are always going to fight harder because this is it.

Those Latinx should really take at look at their own people before passing judgment on a group of people who are here because of kidnapping, rape, and slavery of Europeans on Blacks. These excuses some of you commenters are giving are proving the authors point. I wish you could realize that so we could move on to the real villain in our shared history instead of falling for the okie doke! Mestizos and Asians. We should all stand up for each other, about maybe 6 years ago, maybe even longer.

Almost every day of this pandemic i think about how i wish i could be a part of some real change in Africa and track down your roots and everything with some ancestry, but even that, the rape of african women was moreso currency and cant even be tracked to an origin like others dna can. Latinx community will always have a neighbor in me. And lastly i do empathize the similarities AND the differences between the struggles in our history brought to us not by own doing or our full knowledge.

Black Americans have a tendency to try to prove that they are dominant in the faces of other minority communities they sense are quiet, passive, and well-assimilated. And heaven forbid you get loud and stand up to them.

This coming from somebody who used to cuck hard for the black community because I felt my light-skinned privilege was a detriment to their advancement as a people. Leave your shaming politics for white people. Black Americans act like they own the entire black race and that they are the only black people on the planet.

They criticize white supremacy but they act the same way towards latinos. Because if we dont identify with a color like they do, we get called names for denying our African heritage and that is soooo farrrrr from the truth.

I voice my opinion because I care and also because I also have African blood running through my veins whenever American blacks like it or not!! We need our own lobby groups and our own political agendas bc we are not wanted on the white side or the black side. We latinos need to unite and uplift each other. Wonderful article! I love latino culture, Mexican culture particularly, yet I remain skeptical as so much of Latino culture thrives in anti-black ideologies and rhetoric.

There is clear racism in black culture they murder vendors that are raza target undocumented when they cash their checks and have targeted our elderly and murdered many. At this moment in history it seems like both Blacks and Gays are trying to make everyone bow down to them. I worked for everything I have. My father worked for everything he had. His father and so on. Latinos have never had it easy. We fought for our own progress.

No one paved the way or helped us. We owe no one. If that is consider a progress by the Author this is one thing the blacks can keep. Should I say more? Civil rights what civil rights? When you are used as a pawn on the political game of the elites for their gain and you keep living in the crime infested ghetto where the black families suffer poverty and their children die in the streets at the hand of tugs and nothing is done by the authorities, what civil rights do you really gain?

Please give us a break open your eyes and see the truth. The Author must be in debt to the elites. Yes you sound political correct and may win an Pulitzer Prize for such an illustrious analysis but you also sound ignorant. By your name, Antonio De Loera-Brust you are not even Hispanic or at least you are not to proud of your Spanish heritage that you have to use your anglo last name so that you can stand out from the rest of us Mestizos.

We all are still in the plantation of the elites. No Antonio De Lorea-Brust you are wrong you may owe all that to the black community but not us Hispanics, Latinos or whatever they want to call us. We know who we are and what we want. We have drafted our own destiny since AD we fought off the French, Portuagues, Germans, Brits and US Army of our lands and for our freedom long before the American colonist brought the blacks to American continent.

Which book did you read?? Also please edit your writings before submitting.. We get it…you wrote an article. Stop acting like your some next level author in the likes of Fredrick Nietche. Stop with this wishful thinking of reparations. Because from the Indians, Africans, Irish, and Scottish we were all slaves at one point.

And yes indentured servants are slaves. Slavery is evil, and none of that history should be justified. It will just make them develop a weak character. And no one! Not even bosses respect weak people. Because they put in the hard work! Not because they get on their knees and beg for money! Because they actually put in the hard work and was smart enough to handle their money! And my gosh almost every race and ethnicity act like a bunch of sensitive crybabies.

Even though most of these crybabies of all ethnicities live in good neighborhoods. Meanwhile poor Americans of any background live with pain and suffering. Because they live in trailers or ghetto ass towns. Yet some of these poor people are every background. Because then most low class Americans would get taxed! Which is why reparations or money for the poor will just be a concept.

There still going to tax you. America thrives off of taxes! I am an African in diaspora living in the United States. I cannot under good conscious understand why Africans and Latinos find themselves at odds with one another, when both groups share similar problems trying to live in an America controlled by white supremacists who despise our presence.

Rather than hate on one another, we should find common ground even unite when considering how our image are projected; stereotypes and its proven effectiveness in sowing conflict between races. White supremacy in America is responsible for over policing of African and Latino communities, decrepit schools providing poor education, chronic unemployment, mass incarceration made up largely of Africans and Latinos, unequal access and distribution of wealth, police brutality, and suppress voting rights enacted into law over 50 years ago.

If we truly want to change the conditions and knock down those barriers that has deprived us of equality, respect, and humanity, then we must merge in solidarity. Ever since Mexico was invaded and held at gun point to sign over its territory. Ever since the promises of Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo were ignored by America the same fate as the other Native American treaties that America broke.

Most Mexican Americans are of majority Native American blood so it makes sense that we suffer the same injustice and are often completely ignored by history and media. He also forgets that Mendez vs. Westminster was argued 6 years before Brown vs Board of Education.

Recent and limited research suggests that migration has been encouraged by the North Atlantic Free Trade Agreement, global economy and an expanding market for unskilled, low-wage workers.

In , Latinos made up 1 percent of the population of the city of Durham. However by , they represented 8. When Whites were asked the same questions, fewer than 10 percent responded with similar negative attitudes towards Blacks. McClain says that finding came as a positive surprise, and prompted her to conclude that Hispanics were not adopting their negative views from Whites. The study concluded that most likely Latinos are bringing negative views with them from their home countries.

Johnson points the finger at Hollywood. While some have said that such poor relations represent a missed opportunity for two working-class groups to partner politically, a recent Gallup poll showed that Blacks and Hispanics now both share a low opinion of the Bush administration. McClain intends to start a larger survey in the next year, and include Memphis, Tenn. She hopes her findings will be more positive.

I believe this article should be taken with a grain of salt. This data was obtained by a very specific sample. I would be curios to know what ethincities were represented in this sample. Each on has a unique culture and racial make up. There are many Latinos who feel truly connected to their African heritage and African-Americans.

University of Miami sociology professor Jomills Braddock said many immigrants "come with a cultural perspective about African Americans that has been exported from the U. Beyond the lack of knowledge and stereotypes around the Black American experience, there is widespread racism embedded in Latin American countries that immigrants can bring along with them when they migrate.

The legacy of colonialism and slavery left social, economic and political consequences that persist to this day. Across Latin America, people have claimed for years to not have the same racial divisions that plague the U.

But in reality, Afro descendants and Indigenous people tend to be at the bottom of the barrel in terms of education, income and positions of power. Gamarra said democratization in Latin America in recent decades has done more than import American movies and music: It has also brought on the American debate on racial relations. Afro Latino and Indigenous social movements have expanded, and countries like Brazil and Colombia have instituted affirmative action programs based on race.

In Miami, a city that is 70 percent Latino, the average fair-skinned Latino does not get discriminated against — and that contributes to a lack of understanding about persistent violence and inequities against Black people. It also means they have different understandings about how much racial progress has been achieved and how much more needs to be done, he said. Because of the nation's racial reckoning and the broad appeal of the HBO series "Watchmen," many young people in particular have taken the initiative to do research about the Tulsa massacre and educate themselves.
