latinos vs. african americans?

Question

why aren't they coming together?

nop im mexican im not being rascist. i say this because it is true!!well in the ghetto it is . u have to be real thats what happens when living in the ghetto.

Answer 1

Something will happen soon that will force Them to come together!!!!

Answer 2

They do where I teach! They come together all the time! In fact, alot of them come together and chant ignorant hateful things about white people. I asked them why they would say this in front of me (I teach, and they are my students). They told me they don't consider me white because my roots are Eastern European. I think they are just confused. They don't know how to define white except snobby whites with blond hair in upper and upper middle class neighborhoods. Man are they surprised when I tell them of actors of wealth who are Latino or latina with blond hair. I think their real prejudice is against economically advantaged and rednecks. . By the way, Latinos usually have white blood. They may be mixed with native blood like najaho or mayan or aztec, but the spanish makes them caucasoid. Some were raped and others were loved. African Americans have a lot of caucasoid too over the years for different reasons. Some pleasure, some love, some because their owners wanted more slaves so white landowners did the women to have more slaves. People need to learn to love one another and only be prejudiced against ignorance. People need to just try to teach acceptance and give up on all the hatred against any ethnic culture.

Answer 3

The African-Americans I know do harbor a negative attitude towards Latinos, much to my surprise! I was told once that the reason was because they had to work to get where they are and yet Americans hand everything over to (Mexicans). Since my sister-in-law is from Mexico I argued that point with her, and after a long debate she finally said "we have been in this country for hundreds of years and have one TV station for us - and they have how many Hispanic channels now?!!" Doubt she speaks for everyone but it could explain some of the problem...

Answer 4

I'm not saying it's true but I heard read darker skinned latinos that don't refer to themselves as mestizos are discriminated against and that whenever an afro-mexican is around it is assumed that they are fromm another country because everyone is mestizo. It doesn't sound true but I wouldn't know. I'm just saying though if it is the truth, that behavour is probably brought here accept agaist african americans

Answer 5

I haven't any subject with interracial relationship yet i comprehend people who do and that they only are prejudice with Caucasian relationship a black dude no hating or no longer something with the aid of fact I even have lots mixed cousins and that i'm additionally mixed with Latino

Answer 6

It's not Latinos vs Black's, because most educated and properly raised Latinos and Black's get along just fine as they do with all ethnicity's, therefore the problem is illiteracy, and improper rearing, of which is a cancer within any culture, and or society.

Answer 7

Whilstsoever there is interracial slurrs and racism none of these people ( be they white, black, yellow, green or purple) will ever unite as there is far to much hatred spanning the generations that needs to be resolved. Misunderstandings breed Contempt - (many fear what they dont understand.) In other words whilst everyone lets the problems continue there will never be reunification.

Answer 8

#1 reason ,latinos in this country try to view themselves as caucasions ,yes they have they're pride but due to the racism for centries, all ethnic groups learn that it is better to act (white) them to be associated with african americans (ex-slaves) dark skined cubans,mexicans,porta ricans,all hispanics from middle and south america, never wish to be confused with being from africa or african-americans even peoples from brazil, or the carribean islands, all of which were in fact slaves brought to those places by europeans during the atlantic slave trade 1550-1889

Answer 9

Why what are you two races planing to do if you two do come together. I hope not to try to take over the world like the Germans, and the Japanese try to do during world war 2.

Answer 10

Its not color against color. Its legal against illegal. Even the ghetto must have laws. Many differant colors are against breaking the law. You even talk about killing Minutemen. They stay within the law and are of many differant colors. Many border patrol and law enforcement people are hispanic. Do you want to kill them too?

Answer 11

In my neighborhood we are. Plus there are some really cute Dominican girls down the street! :)
