Black people should support Hispanic immigration!

First off, there was such a loud outcry regarding abortion (and I'd argue that there still in some ways is) was because the issue was at the forefront of politics and media. During the Civil Rights Movement the issue of race and racism, especially towards the African-American community was at the forefront of both politics and media. Therefore there was a loud outcry from many people, including white people just like the ones who cried against abortion. In today's America there are many people who don't think racism is alive and well, which I personally think it is as do many of my peers I assure you. Yet I can't remember hearing about any acts of deliberate and unimaginable cruelty being perpetrated based on race on the news or even in school. In fact, I have only heard about such things through chain e-mails on very rare occasions. Those same white people who you said were crying out against abortion would more than likely be crying out against white supremacy if the issue was presented as often as let's say abortion, the war in Iraq, or even healthcare. I would like to say that I resent the parallel you draw between a bystander watching a thievery and white people. My biggest issue is that you insinuate that white people know what's going on and choose apathy, however of your six examples of white supremacy and black subjugation I have heard of only one of them and the discussion of it was very brief. Now, if I happened to see white aggression in my city and walk away saying, "Not my problem," then yes I would be guilty, but this is not the case. Regardless of our many mediums of media, there are very few reports of blatant racism that I have seen, read, or even heard about. If I do not know that there is a problem then it is not apathy, it is being misinformed. Now I understand that you think that by bringing more Hispanics into the population will help the black man's struggles, but I think that it may do opposite. Especially when it comes to illegal immigration, there are many modern day Nativists amongst ourselves who would be livid if there was a group of people advocating all forms of immigration, legal or otherwise. Assuming that the black man is as subjugated as you claim, which I am not saying he is not, then it would be a detriment to his cause for him to advocate Hispanics to immigrate to America as this would only anger his opponents, the aforementioned Nativist WASPs. The cause would be seen as aggressive and racist as they would see it as an almost black supremacist like movement. If met with severe legislative opposition, or political subjugation, the black man could only hurt his cause by giving his oppressors incentive and motive to further their own cause, keeping him down at the bottom of society with the newly subjugated Hispanic immigrants. To surmise: What you are proposing would be considered almost revolutionary and the course of history shows that government, yes even ours, doesn't like revolutions when they don't benefit them. The answer to being on an equal playing field with fellow whites is not by endorsing immigration and a political movement based on race. If the issue of racism and of the continued subjugation were to be brought back to the public eye then I can almost guarantee there would be a serious group of people who would emerge to fight it. And I can almost guarantee that there would be representatives of all colors, creeds, and heritages. While I am not saying that that is the best course of action, I am saying that there are alternatives to your original plan if your description of America were truly accurate. I may not believe everything you say to be true; however I am not denying the fact that we're not perfect as a country.
