According to the Los Angeles Times, Los Angeles City Council President Nury Martinez, a Latina Democrat, recently referred to a councilman’s Black son as a “monkey”-- and also said in reference to liberal Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon, “he’s with the Blacks.”
This prompted MSNBC host Tiffany Cross to ask Fordham University law professor Tanya Hernández if making racist comments made a Latino white or just a racist racial minority. Hernández, a self-proclaimed “race law expert” with an interest in Critical Race Theory, replied:
“Well, I actually think that there is another layer to this. Some people within the Latino community do achieve whiteness, one, because they are white appearing, they favor more our European ancestors, and depending on their accent, their educational level, whether they actually have a recognizable Hispanic surname, that all those things that enable a person to, I wouldn’t call it passing, but seemingly—just-- and seamlessly being able to pass into whiteness, or white Anglo-whiteness, just as they have whiteness within Latin America and the Caribbean. Um, so, I guess what I want to say is that despite this idea of all Latinos being brown, you know, some browns are browner than others and some whites are whiter than others. There are Latinos who are white, whether they have that personal identity or not, that’s their socially ascribed race from others outside, and they get to move in that privilege as well.”
Latinos are incapable of exhibiting racist behavior unless and until they “achieve” whiteness? Say what?! Hernández sounded like a cross between Kamala Harris and a laundry detergent commercial. Some browns are browner than other browns and some whites are whiter than white?!

Yeah, we all knew it was DJ Jazzy Jeff that was the talented one.
Nothing good can be said for festering anger. It is incredibly destructive in the here and now and eternally.
I’d say we are more at Stage 6. There are loosely based militia’s and groups that are formed already that blame everything on whitey. Plenty of examples of polarization out there as well.
i want a job where i can just make stuff up and get paid for it
if they are punctual
then they are definitely white
the museum of african american history says that only white people are punctual
i want a job where i can just make stuff up and get paid for it
the funny part is germans are not aryan
i disagree
since the commies are already in charge
they just have to implement their plan using the power of the state
unless they are stopped
census bureau made it up
so there you go
true
in mexico the racism is against the indians and mixed by the spanish
had a brazilian girlfriend
she was french german indian
it works as short hand but there is no white race
Asian indians are caucasian
as are arabs including jews they are semites a sect of the caucasian race
its all very confusing
I never thought about that, and it makes sense. We’re a falling Tower of Babel.
Some are born white. Some achieve whiteness. Others have whiteness thrust upon them.
The Deep State/Establishment is clearly very powerful as long as the Democrats are in charge (and often when they are not). But it might be incorrect to say that the Deep State is communist.
It might be more accurate to say that the Deep State is seeking to run the government as a totalitarian state with a representative government facade.
And as to Congress, I wouldn't go so far as to say that they are, at this point, hardcore communists. I think it's fair to say that the Democrats are ruled by their extreme Leftwing faction in concert with many crony capitalist corporate backers...but I don't know if they would support an overthrow of the government by card-carrying communists.
As to communists in America, I believe there are plenty of them and their influence is profound, particularly in academia. The Marxists are responsible for all the racial division in America and for the Woke Revolution, including the LGBTQ movement and the gender fluidity fire raging in our schools and with our children. Let me quickly add that though the Marxists lit the Woke fire, it is now burning under its own social power.
Forgive my scattered thinking in this comment. This is an incredibly complicated issue and I don't even remotely think I have done it justice in the few sentences above.
But there it is.
Hahah. Nice.
They’re trying to build two conflicting goals:
1) Tower of Babel - Globalists with Globalism
2) Tribalism with constant racial divisiveness
Both are wrong and this is a trainwreck speeding towards disaster
EVERYONE is “racist”. We all prefer to be around people of our experiences, culture, history, common goals, etc. it’s a self preservation instinct too.
There’s not a single human being on this earth that doesn’t feel more comfortable”around their own”.
That’s not to say folks can’t make an effort to get along and treat others decently and find common ground … but that gets increasingly difficult when you have N entire political party basing everything on race race race,
The dems / libs / commieretardniki are truly vile and need to be thrown on the dust heap of history.
Is “professor’ Hernández saying only whites can be racist? What a racist statement it is.
