1. It's an unfortunate thing that does exist...some Latinx v AA racism.

In my opinion opportunities were missed by movement leaders on both sides to help bridge the divide in cultures and eliminated some of this if leadership on either or both sided had had the foresight to pitch in and get behind publicly each others causes and demonstrations.

Just think of the strong solidarity engendering symbolism of AA leaders and organizations taking part in undocumented and DACA demonstrations or Latinx leadership and organizations getting involved in Black Lives Matter demonstrations.
