We're All Mexicans

Is it possible some do not know what's happening to them?

If "they" are doing this shit to Hispanics, what do you think is happening to Black Americans?

Black Americans like Ben Carson see themselves above it all, but the reality of it all is, "they're" sellouts to their own people. "When Mexicans get attacked, we all get attacked.”

As we struggle to right wrong, they're constantly dumping more shit in on us. Their focus is motivated by their own selfish beliefs and on everything but helping their fellow man.

“We are different, the Mexicans, the Puerto Ricans, the Colombians, the Cubans. At the same time, we are all family.” But why are the indigenous people of this land and Black Americans excluded from this Emilio Estefan quote?

Have they forgotten about us, have we arrived? Does the presence of Whoopi mean Black Americans do not need to be mentioned?  I totally understand the intent but that doesn't make it right. How will you, how can you garner support for Hispanics in America without first garnering support for the indigenous people of this land and Black Americans? We are the world.

It isn’t just about Mexicans in America, but about all people facing bigotry and hatred in America. Are we hoping no one notices us sitting in the corner? “lift up our pride and show the world what we’re doing,” “It’s about the celebration of Hispanic Heritage and how lucky we are to be in America.” But standing on the backs of who?
