@da_horton Agreed, we need a new language and we need solidarity in speaking up, judging fairly and defending the rights of all image bearers. 🙏🏽 again, thanks for the insight and for sharing.

@da_horton Background of the Melendez case teaches us that in Cali, Black people were segregated first and it was later that Natives and “Mongolians” and I do believe after that, “Hispanics” the polarity in this case was literally contingent on a spectrum of color itself.

[Erika Brayboy Collier @ErikaBCollier]

@da_horton I appreciate the insight. Polarity not binary, down to the hue. Polarity btwn B & W have historically been the reason for cases such as Melendez’s and Browns. I’d even argue that polarity between the 2 is partly why Melendez predates Brown, a common CRM strategy of palatability.

@da_horton 3/3 together as free people without regard to race or color. It is clear, therefore, that segregation in our public schools must be invalidated as violative of the Constitution and laws of the United States.”
– Thurgood Marshall, 1947

Solidarity btwn AAs and Latinos is historic.

@da_horton 2/3 “.. Our Democracy is founded in an enlightened citizenry. It can only function when all of its citizens, whether of a dominant or of a minority group, are allowed to enjoy the privileges and benefits inherent in our Constitution. Moreover, they must enjoy these benefits..
