Yeah it was a little too over simplistic, but the point I was trying to make was that these very new immigrants come here and cry racism whenever they don't get their way. The only reason we have white guilt in America is because of the legacy of slavery and Jim Crow, and to some extent the treatment of Mexican Americans in the southwest (lynchings, etc..) and there was a history of racism between these groups.
What you're seeing now is everybody crying racism and discrimination, and these are people who have no real ties or history in America. That's where I was getting at, and no these new types of immigrants cannot try to ride the oppression train off the backs of Black Americans. They have no right to call "racism" because their ancestors were never really part of America. If you're not a Black American or a Mexican American with ancestors before 1965, then I don't want to hear how you're being oppressed and discriminated. Too bad so sad.
