MEXICAN LATINO EXPOSES The Anti-Blackness In His Community — Black Americans REACT

Added: 2026-05-12

[00:00:00]A Mexican guy just got on camera and admitted something that shocked the internet. He said that the hate towards black community didn't just randomly appear. It was taught through colonization, family conversation, and non-stop media propaganda. But what really hit me was when he talked about his own grandmother, a woman who has never met a black person in a single day of her life, yet already fears them because of what television told her.

[00:00:27]Just think about how deep that kind of programming really goes. And trust me, the clips I'm about to show you only get more crazier. A lot of people don't understand when I say that Mexicans are culturally racist.

[00:00:41]They think that I'm calling us openly racist.

[00:00:47]We are culturally racist and this is how.

[00:00:51]Part of our culture is to frown upon dark-skinned people.

[00:00:57]It's been It's been passed down to us by the Spaniards, by our colonizers, by the people that conquered us, taught us that dark skin is inferior, light skin is superior.

[00:01:09]We were taught that. It was passed down to us, meaning it's part of our culture.

[00:01:13]We are culturally racist in this aspect.

[00:01:16]That doesn't mean I go out in the streets and want to hurt black people cuz they're black. Right. Right.

[00:01:22]>> It means that our teachings, the way we're raised, is that we are raised to sub- consciously believe that dark skin is inferior and light skin is superior. Another element in our Mexican culture is Univision News, Univision channel. That channel is run by white Latinos. The ideologies and subliminal teachings that they teach is very similar to Fox News.

[00:01:57]White supremacist-ish. They make efforts to depict dark-skinned people as criminals that whenever they even bother sharing news about dark-skinned people is when they do something wrong. But yet, when they want to mention anything that has to do with light-skinned people, specifically white people, is to depict them as them doing good deeds around the world, feeding the homeless, et cetera. You get it.

[00:02:23]My grandmother was visiting one day from Mexico.

[00:02:27]She's never lived in the United States.

[00:02:30]She has no idea what life is out here.

[00:02:32]She was watching Univision news where they depicted a black American committing a crime. She turned around and said, "Oh, yeah. Estos negros solo estorban, ¿verdad?" "Hey, these black folks, all they do is get in the way, huh?" Here's the interesting part. She's never met a black person in her life.

[00:02:55]She has no idea what it's like to interact with a black person, but yet, she already has an opinion about black people as a whole. Why?

[00:03:06]Because part of our culture, in this particular case, Univision news, since we were children, we have been subliminally taught that blacks are bad, criminals, et cetera.

[00:03:19]And whites are good, decent, giving, saviors, et cetera. We're taught that.

[00:03:27]Hearing her express such a hateful remark about a people that I knew for a fact she's never even interacted with.

[00:03:35]You don't even know a black person.

[00:03:37]How dare you come here to this country and have a whole opinion about these people? I I resented her deeply for it. I regret it because you can't hate her for that. She never got the opportunity to learn to learn what you have. I got the privilege of learning things that I did self-taught since she's been a child.

[00:04:03]She's been working in the fields. Never had the opportunity to sit and read a book to educate nothing. All she ever has to teach her anything was this racist, biased news program. How could I blame her? She doesn't even know any better. And even if I sat with her today, I don't even think I could help her understand at this point because she has lived 80 years worth of only understanding this mentality. A lot of people go to their graves thinking this is normal.

[00:04:40]>> There's a lot of racism, bro. Even even for us in in like Mexicans, there's Mexicans that can't stand uh black people.

[00:04:47]They can't stand them. I myself have no problem with color of skin. Like I've I've I've I've kicked it with with with homeboys that are black and um I've actually I remember when I was younger sometimes I was hungry, you know, we we didn't have anything to eat and we would I was uh I had a friend um I can't remember his name, but uh me and him like he was homeless as well.

[00:05:06]Uh black kid from uh Grape Street. It's a gang. It's called Grape Street. Uh we would go into a Walmart and we would just fill up our stuff and he's like, "You you you're going to be the decoy.

[00:05:15]You're going to run out and they're going to chase." There's a lot of racism, bro. Even even for us in in like Mexicans, there's Mexicans that can't stand uh black people.

[00:05:23]They can't stand them. I myself have no problem with color of skin. Like I've I've I've I've kicked it with with with homeboys that are black and um I've actually I remember when I was younger sometimes I was hungry, you know, we we didn't have anything to eat and we would I was uh I had a friend um I can't remember his name, but uh Just so you know, Mexico is extremely racist. So, we have what are like Guatemalans, even to to own So, you got to remember Mexico was was dominated by Spaniards. So the only reason I look the way I look is because I'm 65% Spaniard.

[00:05:54]>> Yeah. Mexicans, like real Mexicans or what is known as Mexica, not Mexico, Mexica, >> are, you know, 5'4, super dark with big noses and the heads pushed back. Aztecs and Mayans. Like Indians. Like Indians.

[00:06:08]>> Well, we're natives, right? So we're a we're blended. Well, we're natives, right? So we're a we're blended. So the reality is in Mexico till this day, if you are not light-complected, somewhat tall, you're frowned upon, to this day.

[00:06:22]And by the way, they're very open about it. It's not like it's a a secret. It's not like it's a um a hidden Yeah. You're you're you're short and you're dark, and we don't like you.

[00:06:34]So so the fact that it's so funny to me that Mexicans cry racism when they practice more racism in Mexico than they practice than America practices on anybody else.

[00:06:43]That's not my problem.

[00:06:45]That's not my problem.

[00:06:46][music and singing] That's not my problem.

[00:06:51]>> [singing] >> You believe in Mexico there is more racism than here in the United States.

[00:06:56]I'm from Mexico. And we have labels. Es- estatus. Right? The black people, Indian people, mixed people, white people, Spanish white people, and maybe the higher level or your color of your skin define your status.

[00:07:11]Mhm. Right? So what a lot of people don't know is that Mexico is bordered with Guatemala. Yes. Okay? We don't let them in.

[00:07:18]So the same thing that America does to Mexico, we do to Guatemala. Okay? It just the news is CNN, Fox, CNN, MSNBC, uh New York Post, they're never going to show you that. The word Just so you know, Mexico is extremely racist.

[00:07:33]So we have what are like to Guatemalans.

[00:07:36]Even to its own Mexicans. So you got to remember Mexico was was dominated by Spaniards. So the only reason I look the way I look is because I'm 65% Spaniard.

[00:07:44]>> Yeah. Mexicans, like real Mexicans or what is known as Mexica, not Mexico, Mexica, >> are, you know, 5'4", super dark with big noses, and the heads pushed back. Aztecs and Mayans, like Indians.

[00:07:58]>> Well, we're natives, right? So, we're we're blended. So, the reality is in Mexico till this day, if you are not light-complected, somewhat tall, you're frowned upon. Till this Mexicans, we are you know, man, we are a very racist people. Look, a few years ago, Mexico played Germany in the World Cup, and we won 1-0, all right?

[00:08:18]And I saw a video of Mexicans celebrating by burning the flag of El Salvador.

[00:08:22]>> [laughter] >> They didn't even play El Salvador.

[00:08:25]I'm not even sure El Salvador made it to the World Cup.

[00:08:29]To be honest with y'all, I can't tell the difference between a Mexican and El Salvadoran to save my life.

[00:08:34]Is it racist or woke? I'll let you guys decide.

[00:08:37]Trying to tell the difference between a Mexican and El Salvadoran is like trying to tell the difference between Sierra Mist and 7 Up.

[00:08:45]Neither of you is bright. Calm the down.

[00:08:47]>> [laughter] >> Cool. One thing y'all are going to do is argue with me in the comments, and I want to preface this video by saying, I am multiracial, right? And sometimes it's important to highlight that for context, because although I do believe in and identify with the one drop rule, I am lighter than a manila folder, and I have passing and privilege and experiences afforded to me that not everybody has, right? Now that that's out the way, the main comment that I got yesterday on my Cinco de Mayo was from black people saying, "If that's the case, then why do Mexican people hate us so much, right?"

[00:09:17]And it's because of racism. It's colorism. It is anti-blackness. It's colonization. That's the reason. Racism.

[00:09:24]And this on a global scale. Like, there's a lot of books by psychologists and historians that analyze the psychological engineering and the systemic dehumanization used to construct global anti-blackness.

[00:09:37]And the entire non-black world has this unconscious bias that is scientifically baked into human perception. And nobody but black people seem to notice it, right? Especially if you're black and you travel, then you've probably felt unwelcomed in a lot of places. You've probably felt the prejudices everywhere you go except the motherland.

[00:09:54]Intentional. And this insidious concept of blackness is inferior or evil or whatever, it was not by accident. It was by design. Anti-blackness was created to justify colonization and slavery. Most of us do not realize that the dehumanization of black people was actually foundational to the establishment of the modern world.

[00:10:16]This is across place and and time, various regions and different eras. A couple of y'all were in the comments talking about you're not black, you're brown. And in a vacuum, yes, that makes sense, right? Anybody that is non-white is on some spectrum of brownness, but we do not exist in a vacuum. And we say black and brown people to highlight distinctions amongst the histories, the challenges, the struggles, the triumphs that are unique to the black experience.

[00:10:42]And saying only brown people to talk about everybody who is non-white would erase the distinct visibility and historical specificity of the black experience. Besides, race is just a construct. It's not biological. And any classification system that we use to determine race is arbitrary. It depends on whatever you want it to be dependent on where where you are or what you are culturally.

[00:11:05]We're not referring to the actual color black. We're referring to culture, ethnicity, community, not racial categorization, but the black community in America specifically has endured particular systems of oppression. And just saying brown people, referring to all non-white people, would obscure and like dilute that experience. So, cuz there's no hard fast rules on race, the the system is fluid, and you can call yourself whatever you want, right? You can identify however you want to identify and I will respect that, but both perspectives can coexist. Two things can be true at once and I stand by how important it is, especially [snorts] when we're talking about history, to distinguish between black and brown people. Y'all, I got a question. Why don't some or most Mexicans not like black people? Like, what is the history behind that [ __ ] I'm from the Bay Area and y'all know the Bay Area is more like united. Like, we we all [ __ ] with each other. We all vibe with each other. I know like LA, they don't all [ __ ] with each other. Like, it's Mexicans is beefing with the blacks hard out there. But like, I had just moved to Vegas like 3 years ago and I experienced like heavy racism when I was going to like Las Vegas High School and if you know, you know. That's on the east [music] side.

[00:12:28]And that was like that school was like mostly Mexican.

[00:12:31]And I just want to know like, what [music] is the history behind that [ __ ] Like, what made Mexicans hate black people so [ __ ] bad? And this is exactly why this conversation matters because once people start finally admitting where these ideas came from, the entire illusion starts falling apart. For years, many black Americans have been told that the disrespect, the stereotype and the hatred they experience are somehow earned. Like, it's just naturally appear out of nowhere. For clip after clip, people from different communities are now admitting that a lot of these ideas were taught before they ever met a black person. Think about how dangerous that really is. Imagine being judged before you even open your mouth. Imagine entire generation being programmed through television, school system, family conversation and media narrative to associate blackness with something negative. And then, people wonder why anti-blackness exists globally. This thing was exported worldwide through colonialism, color hierarchy system, and propaganda that lasted for centuries.

[00:13:32]But here is the part they never talked about enough. Despite all that hatred, despite all the stereotype, despite constantly being placed at the bottom by society, black Americans still created a culture that the entire world consumed every single day. Music, fashion, slang, sports, entertainment, innovation, the influence is everywhere. Even people who secretly look down on black Americans still copy the culture today. That contradiction alone tells you something powerful. All I want every black person watching this to understand something clearly. Do not internalize the ignorance of people who were conditioned before even knew you. A lot of these mindsets were inherited, not discovered through real human interaction. And it explains why these conversations are finally exposing the deeper truth. The important thing is awareness, because once people become conscious of programming, they can start questioning it, breaking it, and refusing to pass it down to another generation. So, I want you all to tell me what you think down in the comment section. Have you personally experienced this kind of bias from people who never knew you? And do you think the world is finally starting to wake up to how deep anti-blackness really goes? If you made it this far, make sure you like this video, share, subscribe, and don't forget to turn on your notification bell, so you don't miss the next conversation, because these are discussions people are scared to have openly, but they need to happen.
