In my opinion being mexican in this country is extremly hard and especially in LA where mostly mexicans live but none of us seem to be getting ahead. I dont know if its because of our own family or because we really cant get a break. I think everyone makes what they want out of their own life but how is it that in la the only succesful public figure thats seen in tha mass media is the mayor whos hardly mexican cuz he looks more like a token to me!! Its stupid that in LA my intelligence is always put to a question and ppl naturally assume i just crossed the border(not that theyres bad in taking what belongs to us back!!!!)but i would like to be seen as intelligent and potentially succesful as oppossed to a frijolero(which I AM and proudly !but thats for me to say,not for others to assume!) And yes i can do more than cut the grass or be a sancho to your wife(latin lover mith...TRUE!!)but i digress...

we can only ever act on behalf of ourselves.. be the best that WE can be, and look for respect in terms of how we respect others... I know it's not a global solution, but it's what I believe in. All races will succeed in life on a very individual basis... just believe in yourself and what you can offer the world, not in what the world can offer you, because ultimately what you give of yourself is given back ten-fold.

I doubt which you talked to actual NDNs. according to probability, they have been pulling your leg in the event that they have been actual NDNs. No actual NDNs that i be attentive to might say those issues which at the instant are not genuine. i don't stay on the reservation, yet i be attentive to some that do. they could pay taxes. They do have diverse taxing for them. i be attentive to slightly, yet others will come and inform you greater in this. government funds those meant month-to-month exams, it fairly is something that only would not exist. it is something that has by no skill been shown. even whilst asked to furnish links to back their claims of month-to-month exams from the government for only being close by American. As for casinos not all close by human beings own one. there is a few that do and that they are in a position to accomplish that, because of the fact they at the instant are not sure with the help of state regulation. They do get overtaxed for those casinos besides. so which you're misinformed that those are tax unfastened. Welfare nicely it is not only close by human beings that are on welfare you are going to be attentive to this. Now... i will invite you to tutor that we close by American/indigenous peoples have an basic existence. you like to stay a twelve months in my footwear and notice how basic existence is for an indigenous individual.

A certain race does not constitute success nor failure. Whoever believes you are incapable of being triumphant in life just because of your ethnicity is—in my perspective—ignorant. Some utilize the "stereotype threat" to intimidate Blacks and Latinos in the United States. If they choose to believe in it, they choose to believe that they will fail. Our Creator made us all equal.

You're fighting a fight against ignorance, fear, and hatred. I think the best thing to do is just work at building yourself. Become as strong as you can day to day, be as educated as you can, work as hard as you can, and pray. Things may not ever be as you wish them to be, but YOU can still be amazing in whatever situation you're in. I think as we grow as individuals, the world naturally grows stronger. The ignorance gets pushed out and is supplanted by the education we receive simply by opening our eyes to the truths about each other. Am I dreaming here?

I hate LA, maybe you are "a common comodity" there and could get a better life somewhere else, another state where you can get some certifications, or license, or college. Good luck, you sound intelligent.

I've seen CEOs living as vagrants and illegal aliens becoming millionaires. It all lies in your goals and what you do with your life. In the end, it never matters what other people think if you're truly motivated...
