Ahh. You caught my drift.

Whites, especially those living in poverty and trying to survive in this horrible economy, face the same enemies.

I would not hold that against them. I don't think they see a reason to bother. Do you think the average Mexican for example thinks the US needs more Mexico? Oh I am sure they know the US is no paradise either but they are well aware it does not matter which idiot rules over you. Hispanics are not known to be politically active. Their low voter turn out is good evidence. Why would they care about La Raza? About as much as I care for the "brotherhood".

DD, here you are talking common sense again when it is just easier for the simple minded here to focus on skin color.

What injustices?

Please provide a list.

Why Asians?

They have no history of discrimination with Blacks.
They are certainly not the majority.
They were never American slave owners.
They are an immigrant group just like hispanics.

Well, from doing a Google search, NCLR and Lulac seem to be pretty mainstream. MEChA starts getting controversial. Mexica Movement is way out there (I might be willing to declare their positions as a hate group,) but I don't think that's a typical position. "Aztlantistas" didn't come up on my search.

Even so, advocating for illegal aliens from Latin American countries to come to the U.S. to take advantage of our handouts isn't right, but it isn't hate either.
