Xenophobia towards African Americans from immigrants.

[How Sway?]

I learned real fast about how non-black minorities really are completely stupid to white supremacy and basic American history. To them it has to be like extreme klan member shyt before they know it's there. Many of them are on the Mr. Bunty "I want to be sooooo white" shyt. The amount of times I've gotten into discussions with so-called smart-Asians and they don't understand coming here via slavery and coming here on your own terms (with black people as a permanent deflection as well).

a lot of immigrants, regardless of their race, try their hardest to assimilate into the mainstream untill they get their wake up call

but from what I see, in 2017, mainstream america is beginning to become more cosmopolitan vs the apple pie mayberry middle america of the past.
Which might be why them cacs vioted for trump

Asians are the worst when it comes to that shyt. It's extremely EASY to shut them down though....At least the white supremacists know some basic American history.....

the media and cacs definitely do portray AAs in the worst light possible to newly arrived immigrants. especially now with minstrel websites like worldstar and others.
sometimes though, personal experiences can sour relations between newly arrived immigrants and AAs, for example, i grew up in Yonkers NY. during the late 80s/early 90s, mexican workers would routinely get robbed by AA and PRs on paydays. they would literally wait for them getting of the bus and jumping them for their cash.

after a while, the workers began going home in groups to protect each other . . . and that is how some of the first mexican yonkers/NYC gangs began. in memphis the same thing was happening during the mid 2000s
things like that leaves a bad impression, obviously its not an accurate depiction of all AAs, its just that the stores and businesses in the hood, are ususally owned and operated by immigrants, especially grocery stores. and any bad experiences between them and AAs is passed along to the larger community, the reality is that the businesses are in the hood and more often than not, violence is more likely in those locations than middle class areas.

fukk em. When we rule this country they gonna think twice

 

[BigMan]

This is a valid issue. Just because it makes you uncomfortable doesn't mean it lacks validity.

I agree with him.


How someone FEELS about blacks should be irrelevant

I will prolly get hate for this but I think that AAs need to learn from immigrants

 

[King of Creampies]

Most immigrants will gladly subscribe to white supremacy once they touchdown here.

I have seen it and experienced it several times so I just ignore them and go about my business. I don't engage them or assist them in any fashion and just KIM. I don't engage white people if i have to as well so it works out for me.

Sucks it gotta be that way but

Unfortunately black people will really need to do this as a whole to stay safe.

learn what exactly? And from whom specifically

 

[Bonk]

It's not just an American thing - the same thing does happen in the UK as well. Most new African immigrants also tend to look down on Africans and Caribbeans born and raised in the UK as well.

However, I wouldn't call it xenophobia because it's a mixture of their own insecurities, ignorance, and the narrative they got from the media. You need to understand that most Africans on the continent view the west as the paradise where opportunities abound. So, once they get to the west and see synthetic aesthetics that are superior to where they came from - they always develop a complex and suddenly believe the opportunities are endless, without knowing that there's a ceiling for black folks because they don't understand systematic/institutionalized racism. Obviously, when they start meeting the black folks who have lived in the system for generations, with nothing much to show for it, in poverty - coupled with the media narrative - it's normal for them to swallow everything hook, line, and sinker and start looking down on these folks.

Overtime, after spending decades living in the same system and getting more acquainted to how things work and the fact that everything is make-believe...they tend to come back to their senses.

Why do you only post on these types of threads?

No beef, it's just an observation.

One huge thing I noticed about the issue of Trump building a wall and him wanting to change our immigration policies with Mexico especially is that those same people who are pro-immigration will latch onto Civil Rights to convey the idea that they should be able to come into US. Same with the xenophobia surrounding immigration.

But those same people will not ride for Black issues when they come to surface.

Call me when immigrants have the same systemic history and battles as AA.

It is easy to to get ahead after African Americans had made gains to get ahead.

What are immigrants without the generations of AA systemic oppression?

Immigrants come here off the backs of slavery, racial oppression, Jim Crow, Convict leasing, redlining, lynching, civil rights, voting rights, medical experience, lose of culture, lose of language, lack of family structure, race base gerrymandering, underfunded schooling, lack of education, targeted domestic terrorism, media sterotypes and propaganda and so much more.

So much had to be lost in black American community just fukking survive in America!!!!!

Some Immigrants don't understand that.


Your American dream is on the back of the suffering of black America and that is not a opinion that is a fact!!!!!

Yup, I agree with both of your points....

 

[K.O.N.Y]

. Obviously, when they start meeting the black folks who have lived in the system for generations, with nothing much to show for it, in ses.

So the black immigrant understands we've been here for decades/generations... And thats the full extent of it for them
No knowledge on what was done or why they are able to come over here in the first place

learn what exactly? And from whom specifically

Learn to stick together
Use nepotism to further our selves
Keep our dollars within our communities
Learn to see America as a hustle
Etc.

Ok and why should an immigrant care about that if it doesn't affect them?

I see this specifically with middle eastern and Hispanic immigrants
