he-said she-said case hinging on’racist comments’ without any evidence
Don’t get me wrong, that’s total bs.
But the fact that it happened to a black woman is just hilarious
Live by the sword, die by the sword? ROFLMAO
OMG!! the RACIST is BLACK!! I am SHOCKED!
She’s not wrong, though. Light-skinned Latinos can blend in with White folks when they want, and then turn around and pull the Race card when it suits them. I’ve been saying for a while that Latinos need to understand that Black folks don’t necessarily consider them POC. To many Black folks, there are only two races: Black, and not Black.
“Racism is the belief that one’s own race is superior to another.”
I’m too lazy to look up anything up in the dictionary, but I’m not at all sure that is the only and entire definition of “racism”.
I also understand that “Mexican” is a Nationality, not a Race, so the word is a bit off for that reason. But this woman makes a statement disparaging all Mexicans, what would you call it? Just bigotry?
But of course, she tips the hand for the whole game. We must judge people as individuals.
I knew when I read "said she had a 'distrust of Mexican people,'
Years ago I worked in a factory with people from literally everywhere. I was shocked that the blacks didn’t like the Hispanics (and told me so ... I guess being a ginger i was neutral?) and the Hispanics didn’t like the blacks, either, and told me so. (Again, being a ginger, I must have seemed neutral). I can’t remember who the Hindu’s didn’t like. Amongst Hub’s cousins, one married a girl from Japan and one married a girl from Korea. They commented once how they got along so well. From my anecdotal evidence I conclude that no one group has a lock on racism.
The new woke departments in the WA government are a bad joke because they are so single minded. They have one purpose only and can’t seem to look beyond it. We have a new director of green energy production, both solar and wind farms. This new guy is very focused on off shore wind farms. I guess he isn’t from WA and doesn’t know about the focus on salmon and the whales. …and no one seems inclined to tell him. They just let him go on and on about the off shore wind farms that he wants to build in the Puget Sound.
most if not all latinos/Latinas do not like black people period.
It’s lucky those two cousins-in-law got on well! I remember a news story from years ago about a state visit by some Japanese leaders to Korea. Don’t remember any details, just that the Korean man tasked with raising the Japanese flag afterwards committed suicide, he was so ashamed of having done that job.
