Are inner American and Mexican more racist toward Blacks than other Latino?
Puertorican from east cost seam to get along capably with blacks while Mexicans don't approaching to have blacks surrounded by their neighbourhood.
Answers: Hi..
Im mexican and I dont reckon we have anything against blacks, but I can utter that we are just unused to seeing them around.. so whenever you see them its just odd (same with other type of see; whiteys and asians). In Mexican history there werent any slaves from Africa that stayed here, it be more a Central America and Brasil thing..
If I own to say, I dont assume Mexicans are racist (they may have their preferences) and within my opinion they are more clasist.
Then again I live surrounded by Mexico.. dont know how it works in the states.
ANSWER TO YOUR ANSWER..
Hello I appreciate your links and the info given, extremely interesting..
For reply Ill try to explain myself a bit better, Mexico is a HUGE country and with deeply of different cultures with within, blacks are rare surrounded by Mexico but that doesnt mean they dont exist, approaching in one of your articles, (resemblence contained by music) most of the black people arrive and stayed at some parts of east - south of the country, mixed a bit next to the indigenist creating the "Mulato" race. Its awfully disputed all the indigenist features, by itself it can be african or asian resemblence, not a soul really knows for sure. As I said earlier I dont think we are racist, how ever we do own our preferences as its something that we learned "culturally", the defeated looking are the indigenist and the minority type and the european looking be the upper class, the one with the power and class. Its a historical and social injustice that since the europeans arrive to mexico, no situation independence or revolutionary war, the power and beneffetis have rested near the "european" instead of the minorities.. but as a social racism against them I dont consider Mexico as being one against the blacks.
In Mexico and within parts of Central American , Blacks are not seen.. In Puerto Rico, within are blacks , as well as surrounded by some parts of the countries in South America.. ( Brazil, Venezuela, Colombia).. So don't transport it the wrong way, its lately not seen that commonly..
Take care..

come on, that`s so not true. i`m from honduras, and division of our culture involves black people, the garifunas for example, they are an substantial part of our country, of our culture. i am not racist, and black population here in honduras are so greeting. In the U.S. there is some rivalry between Mexicans and Central Americans and Blacks that lead to some racist behavior on the part of both groups (Latinos and Blacks). HOWEVER, inside Mexico and Central America Blacks tend to be treated a lot better than they are contained by the U.S.
There are many latin americans countries where on earth blacks were brought years ago from Africa as slaves. However, I judge that due to the fact that most latin american countries already have indians and other ethnicities, blacks were not see or treated differently or with abomination. All these minorities got together okay as they formed a union againts the majority which be white europeans.
I have travelled profoundly to Peru, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Ecuador and Brazil and I have not see any hatred or racism towards blacks.
I own seen racism surrounded by the US, especially in the southern states (Georgia and Alabama) as if the civil period of war was still going on!
Mexico, I've lone been to Cancun so I cannot trendsetter, didn't see any blacks there.
Im from Honduras and blacks are factor of our culture, they live on the coast because those are their lands, thats were they established when they arrived to Honduras. Now they live throughtout the unbroken country and are treated like everybody else. We do not hold any problems with black nation. A Hondrus guy I worked with said that surrounded by Honduras the blacks all live by the the deep because no one desires to be near them.
I'm from Honduras and we are not racist to our black community. Yes, they mostly live on the coast but to be precise because they immigrated from many of the islands and situated themselves at the coast. Your friend be partially right but completely wrong almost the racism.
