I respect your opinion PA; and again, I have no conflict going here. Because you are a panafricanist and I am not; it does not deminish the amount of respect that I have for your views.
Latinos: again, this doesn't bother me. I read the info. a little bit differently... I know that they are taking many of the low-wage jobs that We used to do. I am happy that many of Us are no longer doing such jobs; although nothing is or was wrong when we did; there are always groups that come in and sub for the group that was---just like We, after fighting just one war We continually face; took the place of many white immigrants (who I was very surprised to read an article about detailing that they had difficult times because of their accents/languages???). Maybe they are doing such jobs, but if you go in and see what is and was going on; hey, I don't want my people being mistreated and abused and used...as some of what I have seen with my own two eyes.
PA, I hope that you don't consider leaving. Even if I was a panafricanist, which I am not; I would hesitate before I give up what Our Fore Parent's had to die for Us to have. There is too much blood and too much pain wrapped in Our very being, for me to do so.
There are ways that today We can really circumvent these goings on. Why can't We. Whites are protesting (ok, I am a little dismayed when/if I see Blacks with them doing it because alot of the times these are virulent racists doing these things and I cannot understand an African-American even being in the same sphere with them!), Whites are boycotting (under the radar) places like Tyson chicken; and some have formed community groups whereby they do not and will not let builders come in where the workforce is heavily Hispanic or Illegal; Whites, to their credit, do not patronize the businesses of any minority; especially if they set-up shop in their neighborhoods... they do not fight or shout about it; they just don't and soon the business is gone.
Again, this comes with Us learning to coalition.
I don't really like what Whites are masquerading around as "Black Conservatives" today; they are minstrels and just seeing them pulled around on chains- spewing their racist histrionics... and feminine emotionalism is sickening; but God, I have to give them credit for two things... they will not let you link them with other Blacks and they are very very anti-immigrant period. While, the ones We put in office, and have let run around all impotent and self-serving... are helping them!
PA, if all of those or most of those who sold Us into the heinousness of slavery are all but gone; demolished-then why are You trying to form coalitions with other Africans?
