I don't know a single african american that would support illegal aliens. The ones I know are just as fed up as anyone else. These illegals are so full of it. They are loosing and are trying to play the church...but God don't like ugly. And sure won't tolerate illegals using the church for their ill-gotten gains. Soon enough they will reap the whirl wind.

I work with many African Americans everyday and they know very well that one of the causes of their unemployment rate is due to the illegal influx in this city. This city is so overpopulated with these illegals that you could even smell the foul odor from the sewers while driving through their nieborhoods.Unbelievable. Each time these illegals are deported they come right back and end up settling in sanctuary cities ,such as Chicago.
Actually, the high unemployment rate among Blacks existed before the large influx of Latinos.
Moreover, Latin communities in America have large unemployment rates and levels of poverty similar to those found in black communities. This is probably part of the reason that some blacks and latins are actually trying to unite around common goals.
Only the capitalist ruling class and various assortments of racists have an interest in pitting Blacks against Browns or vice versa.

Once again...why must this be a "White man keeping us divided" scnerio?

White men have little to do with the animosity most Mexican immigrants have towards Black americans, so why not accept responsiblity and quit blaming a group thats not involved!

When the $hit hits the fan, Americans will stand together against ALL illegal aliens. PERIOD

Americans with Mexican desent can decide whose side they will be on. The Nortenos I know won't be siding with the illegals and their Surenos compadres.

Yes they are yungin.

I feel proud of myself,i have accomplished alot,I have a supportive family and maintain my share of good African American friends. The one thing I have realized is that one must walk away from ignorance and move on.

IMHO, I do not believe it has to do with anything you are ranting about.I believe it has to do with our economy.We work hard and are being taxed out of are azzes to support these (ungrateful) ppl, who all the while; are destroying everything in their path ,everything we as Americans have built from scratch. Stop the racist comments/BS and lets deal with reality "our economy". We as Americans cannot afford to support these ppl, bottomline.

You have some serious problems and are ONE HELL OF A RACIST! Stimulating what YOU apparently like to portray as "intellect" shouldn't be too difficult. I'll just send you to McDonalds to order food. Reading the menu would be an excruciating intellectual challenge for you and your "intellect". If you feel INFERIOR maybe you should get off your ass and fix your life and quit blaming 'WHITEY'for your own screw ups.
rotflol! i have serious problems? in your previous post you stated you dnt eat at taco bell because you hate all things mexican....

further more why do you think i feel inferior? why do you think i sit on my ass and where in my post did i blame "whitey" or even mention my "screw ups"

Unfortunately for blacks we have so called black leaders who try and defend these invaders by trying to make them look like victims of racial injustice or something. But us black people should never defend these people whom are usually very racist against us and are out to destroy us and our communities. As far as I am concerned the white man can just deport them all because I will not miss them and their racism. Deport the cubans, mexicans, peurto ricans etc I do not care because we do not really need them here.

I will gladly stand with white people to get rid of mexicans and I do not care if they are just using me since I can not stand mexicans. It sickens me to my stomach to hear black people defending these animals that wants us all dead.

Plenty of racism coming from black people on this thread... it is vile and stupid.

Y'all are very confused.

1. Mexicans have more right to be here than YOU do, as they are mostly Native (they're less white than African-Americans are!) and you are NOT.

2. The conditions of the poor AA communities have NOTHING to do with Mexicans, any more than do the conditions of poor white communities. The notion that somehow immigrants are responsible for anyone's problems here is ABSURD.

3. Mexico is not a very racist country compared to the USA. I know Mexico VERY WELL and obviously none of you do.

4. Hostility between blacks and Mexicans was initiated BY BLACKS in California, who treat Mexicans like dirt. Blacks often are in positions of power in the schools, for example, and I have repeatedly observed the overt racism toward even Mexican schoolchildren. During the R King riot, Mexican sweatshop workers were being attacked in the streets by black rioters. A lawsuit was brought against the black-run Chas Drew Mexican Center in L.A. for discrimination against Mexican workers. And I could cite MANY more examples.

5. The truth is, blacks find it convenient to ally with whites when it comes to Mexicans. The RACISM and LIES expressed by anti-Mexican blacks is EXACTLY that of the whites, and obviously was learned from them.

ABANDON your racist ignorance, you goddam fools. Mexicans were in California LONG before either black or white gringos were... so who's the ALIEN??? YOU ARE!!!

Black Californians joined with whites and Asians in voting for RACISM in the propositions against bilingual education AND denying services to immigrants. My message to BLACK CALIFORNIANS is... stop your anti-Mexican racism or GET THE F OUT OF CALIFORNIA! GO BACK TO TEXAS AND NORTH CAROLINA AND F YOURSELVES!

PS. If you wish to criticize the info on this site, www.mexica-movement.org , then let's hear it.

I have never found anything on the site to be inaccurate. It is the real history of his continent which has been suppressed.

Just how does the true history of Mexican people threaten black Americans? Please explain that.

I hate all things mexican because, in case you haven't read, about 80% of the illegal aliens bleeding our nation into poverty are from that nation. I am a rabidly patriotic person and I love this nation. I will not sit still for this invasion, unlike people like you who seem to think everything about this nation, founded by the "evil whites", is bad. Get it? And to think someone else considers themselves "supreme" intimates that SOMEONE must be inferior and since you're the one whining about white supremacy, you evidently are the one who feels INFERIOR.

You don't have to say that you messed up or "screwed up" your life. It's evident in your psot. The first thing you did was start blaming another race for the problem...you're a racist plain and simple. Typically, people who sit around blaming someone ELSE for all the problems only need to look in the mirror to discover where the majority of their problems stem from.

Do me a favor and try to figure out a few of these things for yourself. I will quickly grow weary of having to explain every simple thing to a moron.

And there you go with yet ANOTHER racist statement. Maybe people don't like you because your attitude sucks and you have a very small mind.
