His statement is partially true. Racism in the form of Hispanics coming to the aid of illegals based on their being mostly Mexican with Spanish surnames. If the illegals were Polish I doubt Mr. Morales or Geraldo would have been so keen on letting 12-20 million stay while keeping the door open for more to come.
Since Hispanics are not really a race, Geraldo and Sammy Sosa are not the same race, Morales should have framed his argument as a bias against Mexicans.

Last time I checked the anti-illegal immigration folks didn’t field a “civil rights” organization called “The Race” with a motto of “For those withing the Race, everything; for those outside the Race, nothing.”
The racism is mostly on the other side.

Geraldo and Sammy Sosa are the same race as you and I are. Check any first-year biology book.
