Mexican and African American Conflict In California
Recently there has been a lot of attention on the Conflict between Mexicans and African Americans. This to me came to me as a surprise because I honestly didn’t know how many murders and crimes have been committed due to this conflict between the two sides. I searched every major news agency and found several stories that related to this topic. This is not only happening in LA but other areas of California and other parts of the Country. Where you are seeing an emerging Latino Population in areas where it has been traditionally African American. What is every ones view on this topic.

This conflict between black and latino people has been around for a while. It's being perpetuated in films and tv even more. I don't think there is one single way to fix the problem. The distain between the two groups is maintained through generations. It's pretty much how racism is perpetuated in our society; through prior perceptions.
In my blog I am talking about Obama and Clinton and the Latino vote. I wonder if the reason that the Latino vote is going towards Clinton is maybe because of this divide between African Americans and Whites. It would seem to me that the minority Latinos would support the minority candidate, but I am wondering if this divide relates perhaps to Clintons support in a way?
