"All men are created equal."
For 300 fucking years this country has been trying (and not trying, at parts) to eliminate racism in American life. During the civil rights movement, Blacks were striving just to be accepted into mainstream Americana as normal people. For a while it was magical. White people sat with Blacks on the bus. Equal employment was rampant. It was looking like things were getting better.
Same goes with Mexican-Americans and Mexican immigrants.
Then it all went to shit.
Here's a little back story on myself. I live about 50 miles north of the Mexican border. I have many illegal immigrants as good friends.
The Civil Rights Movement told the world that Blacks JUST WANTED TO BE ACCEPTED.
What the fuck. Everywhere I go now, Blacks and Mexicans are trying to be as far away from mainstream America as possible. I was in class today, my teacher called on the one Black kid in my class, and he st ood up and shouted "You just pick on me because I'm Black.." He then walked out of the classroom. Its like they are trying so hard to be understood, but they aren't letting anyone understand them. Its fucking ridiculous.
Same with the Mexicans in this area. They are so against the way of life that I grew up in (as did most of them). Now don't get me wrong, everyone in California has a little Spanish in them, but thats ridiculous.
Bottom line: I know your people may have struggled in the past, but you really don't have to take it out on the rest of us just because you came from somewhere else and your family had it bad in the past.
