Alot of other places too. Some have gone to Nevada and Arizona. Nevada is 10% Black, up from 6.8% in 2000. In Arizona, the Black population is growing considerably.

It is more like Blacks began moving west, to Crenshaw in the article from the previous center of Black LA along Central Avenue which ran from downtown to Watts in Los Angeles when Japanese Americans sold to them after the war and White folks started fleeing. Then Blacks started dispersing from that South(Southwest) Los Angeles core and being replaced by incoming LatinX. Thus losing local supermajorities and becoming a minority in a more diverse community since White people no longer sell out and flee when a few Black families move in.

Although White folks returning to the higher income Black, for now, areas in Los Angeles has seen nation focus of high income Black areas shift to Atlanta and other areas.

Black people in the North and West are moving back to the South, to the more affluent areas of the South. Better quality of life overall.

Even Caribbean people who are black are moving to the South in higher numbers…

It could have been. However, given what we know about Stacey Dash, it wouldn't surprise me if she herself put that down.

Texas alone had 200,000 people in 1850
New Mexico 61,000

On top of all this, you know Spain also had territories in Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana right ? Those people didnt pack up and leave either, but those people were indeed white Spaniards for the most part, not Latinos. But they did speak spanish, which is still part of your flawed argument.




There is no such thing as "American" culture. At best you mean shared identity and likes. Food is regional, dance is regional, language is regional, even art is regional in this country, then you can break that further down by race and ethnicity.




no.

If you actually mean 1st generation as in first generation born here, then you would be correct

But thats still a flawed argument seeing how those numbers skew.

A second generation Hispanic man could be 90 years old by your logic and clearly didnt get here in the 1970's since both he and his parents would have been born here.



This argument only works if you pretend Latinos didnt inner marry with the natives.

You would never call a mixed race person who had one white parent and one black parent, white. So why would you do it with mexicans ?

In other countries in Latin America, darker skin puts this debate to bed.

My argued isnt that any of this is bad, its just refuting the false things you posted.
There is no American culture? WTH are you talking about? Part of that identifying culture is the English language.

Wrong, if one has one white and one black parent they are of mixed race. Sames goes for a Mestizo that marries a white or a black person. One could use Asians as an example to. It has nothing to do with skin color but genetics. There are light and dark skinned people of all races. You are the one posting false things.

Democrats have sold us out.
Everything you said is the absolute truth! I wonder why so many blacks don't have a problem with or won't speak out against this illegal invasion of our country from mostly Latinos? Hmm. I have a couple of ideas though.

Shhhh, black people are losing south central Los Angeles. It doesnt matter how much we're moving to the south. Once we lose the black mecca of Southern California, its all over for us.

Actually there were blacks and several mulattoes (mixed black and white) part of the founding of LA. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Angeles_Pobladores

Quote:
The castas of the 22 adult pobladores, according to the 1781 census, were:

1 Peninsular (Spaniard born in Spain)
1 Criollo (Spaniard born in New Spain)
1 Mestizo (mixed Spanish and Indian)
2 Negros (blacks of full African ancestry)
8 Mulattos (mixed Spanish and black)
9 Indios (American Indians)

Because liberals tell them that white people are the Great Satan, and that they have that in common with the Mexicans that are displacing them. They are both told they have a common enemy: the white man.


I don't think this grand experiment is going to work out for them in the long run though.


I don't think the Mexicans and blacks are all just going to sing kumbaya together down the road.


Of course I'm not God, and I am just speculating, but I have seen some of this multiculturalism up close here in the Twin Cities, and what I am seeing is: Asians, blacks, Somalians, Mexicans and so on tend to stick to their own here.


Like I said, I could be wrong, but I think the future of America is: balkanization on steroids, down the road.


We'll just have to see. No such experiment like America has ever been done before...

Well that comes to Tritone's argument about how the LatinX were counted before the 60s Civil Rights legislation and how people who fled when Black folks moved in from WWII through the 1970s were counted. But in the end we are talking about the majority, supermajority actually, of Black's in a very small section of California, or just the City of Los Angeles and the ending of that local majority status and eventually people who look like us holding political seats.
