Why spanish people don't like Black americans (Part 2)...What do George Lopez, Fat Joe and Amara La Negra "still" have in common?

“I ask you to go back to that mirror—and if nothing looking back at you is friendly, then you have no friends.”

—Dr. John Henrik Clarke

To the readers of this Blog: I didn’t plan to revisit this particular post—and I certainly wasn’t planning to write a sequel to it. But with america’s spanish population being in the news so much lately, and with their strange relationship with (indigenous) Black americans, I felt a need to make my position even clearer as to how they really feel about us, and how we, (or at least I), feel about them.

So, let me say straight off, that I understand the term “latino” is the politically correct proper noun used to refer to america’s “spanish-speaking population(s)”. So please don’t waste your time, or mine, telling me this. And please don’t tell me the terms “spanish” and “latino” are cultural terms, not ethnic ones—'cause I know that too. Meaning, I understand that these people are Black—but since they don’t identify themselves as such, I’m not gonna’ claim them either. Additionally, I don’t need a geography lesson, so don’t tell me that “Spain” is in europe, ‘cause I know that as well—but what spanish people living in america don’t know, is that anyone with a spanish surname, is considered “non-white”, regardless of their being fair-skinned—and if you don’t believe me, just ask Donald Trump.

Moreover, like I’ve stated several times in the past, the term “hispanic” was created for “latinos”, ‘cause american census officials found out these folks were checking the “caucasian” box on their forms. So, if anyone’s misidentifying these people, it’s “latinos” themselves, not me.

Now, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention this: the first post I wrote about these people not only garnered more attention than I thought it would, but it also had some “ethnically-confused” types pissed at me for supposedly misrepresenting the spanish-speaking minions of america. One female in particular, left a comment on my first post saying that she was actually embarrassed for me, ‘cause I called spanish-speaking folks, spanish. And she opened her dumbed-founded diatribe by commenting: “I’m a Black woman of mixed (latino) descent…” To which I replied: “Are you a Black woman, or a woman of mixed descent?”

And I posed that question cause, I wasn’t about to let her get away with calling herself “half-Black”. Cause that’s what people who really don’t wanna’ be Black do. And understand, the reason she opened with that statement was, so she could ride both sides of the fence. Meaning, she wants to be able to be Black around us, and non-Black, around her white, spanish and asian friends. And that’s a mental disorder I refer to as being “typically latino”. To top this off, this empty-headed, half-wit called herself, “Cali Valley Venus Mirage”—now, let’s break that nick-name down right quick.

“Cali Valley” refers to “California’s ‘southern’ Valley”, and this is where we get the phrase “Valley Girl” from. And for those who’re unfamiliar wit’ this term, it’s meant to refer to affluent and spoiled rotten white girls who come from this region, and who talk with an obnoxiously hi-pitched, nasal timbre, (watch the movie(s), “Clueless” and/or “Heathers”, and you’ll know what I’m talking about). So, from jump, this ethnically-confused girl was associating herself wit’ white girls. Now, anyone who knows about the legend of “Sarah Baartman”, knows she was called the “hottentot VENUS”, because of her exceptionally large derrière and hyper-feminine curves. Mind you, the fact that whitey decided to name her after the roman goddess of love, Venus, means that this part of the bi-ethnic broad’s nick-name, was sufficiently white enough for her to use. Now, the word “Mirage” pretty much sums this dumb little girl up, ‘cause she was trying to make me see her as something she’s not. She also tried to give me the whole, I’m an educated Black woman, calling you on your ignorance, routine. But I told her again, if she was so proud to be Black, she wouldn’t have identified herself as having a “mixed descent”. Then I told her, she should quench her thirst for education with some lessons outside of the white fascist (mis)educational system, making her think she’s “mixed”, so she could get outta’ that mirage and back to reality.

I’ve never heard from her since.

So, while this is yet another example of spanish folks being Black when it’s convenient, I wanna’ show you some mo’ celebrated examples of this, and why we should realize that any alliances we try to form with these people are futile. And once again, this editorial might run long, so I thank you in advance for your kind indulgences, while I expound on this group’s social schizophrenia.

George Edward Lopez was born on April 23^rd, 1961 in Los Angeles, California, and he’s the son of a male migrant worker named Anatasio, and a mother named Frieda, who’re both Mexican.

George’s father left when he was 2 months old, and his mother deserted him when he was 10. Thus, a preadolescent George was raised by his maternal grandparents, Refugio and Benita Gutierrez. And as a teen, George attended San Fernando High School, and graduated in 1979.

Now, George is famous for saying, or alluding to the fact that (indigenous) Black people, were not allowed in his house. And what this speaks to more than anything, was his living in what I call, a “typically spanish” household. Meaning, it’s usually fine for any member of that family to dote on the byproducts of Black culture, especially if they live near us, but when it comes to being around their own kind, they should make it their business to revile Black folks the way a white klansman would. If not moreso. Cause the bottom line is, a white klansman knows their white, but spanish folks know they’re not. Regardless, even if George grew up living on dirt floors, his folks made him feel that he’s superior to any Black person.

But peep this out, it’s also well documented that George’s grandparents paid him very little attention. So much so that he’s said his esteem took a major hit by living with them. But regardless of how little affection they showed George, he still heeded their advice about not liking us.

By the late 1980’s, George was a successful comedian playing large clubs around the country, and he was appearing on TV as well as in some bit parts in movies. Now, I wanna’ stop here ‘cause, I need to show you the hypocrisy of these people when it comes to hating us, but capitalizing on our culture. In 1998, the “Kings of Comedy” tour starring Bernie Mac, Cedric the Entertainer, Steve Harvey and D.L. Hughley, was not only a successfully revolutionary tour, but it was turned into a successful full-length feature film. Directed by Spike Lee no less. Now, with all the animus that spanish folk have for us, seeing the success of this tour, George and a couple of his hispanic comic friends, still decided to create a “latin Kings of Comedy tour” in 2001.

Now, fast forward to 2002, George parlayed his comic successes into getting his own self-titled TV series, “The George Lopez show”. But when it comes to the gold standard of cultural currency, which is “Black Street Cred”, George just couldn’t rest on his laurels and legacy, so in 2017, he went on the “Comedy Get Down” Tour with D.L Hughley, Eddie Griffin, Charlie Murphy (R.I.P.) and, wait for it—George Lopez. Now supposedly, the person who put him on this tour was D.L.—and that really don’t surprise me, cause D.L.’s famous for his anglophilic, boot-licking, and brown-nosin’ endeavors, when it comes to whitey and non-Black folks. See, D.L. is trying to pass himself off as a social activist, and he intends to do that by kissin’ as much white and brown butt as he can. I remember one TV show I saw him on, where he buck-danced for, and schmoozed with, some white nationalist. And at the end of it, they shared a Black & white cookie, in some asinine display of solidarity.

Moreover, George’s stylings once again remind me of the rapper Fat Joe. Insomuch as, when Joe was asked about Black rappers rockin’ “Black Medallions” with the continent of Africa in the middle, he said, “Well, I always wore my gold (chains), so I don’t know what those guys were trippin’ off.” Mind you, what he was really saying is: why would anyone be proud of Africa? And Joe’s made several comments where he points out how Black people tend to speak the queen’s English around whites, but our own vernacular around ourselves. But it’s fine for hispanic folks to speak english around whites, and spanish around their people. And if Joe feels superior cause his people speak another language, then why didn’t he make a career for himself playing “spanish” music, like “salsa” or “merengue”?

And speaking of music, this leads me to my beef wit’ Amara “the Black”, I mean, Amara “La Negra” (whose real name is Dana De Los Santos). Only Amara’s cultural theft comes with a softer, and more finessed touch. Meaning, she’s claiming that she’s “unapologetically Afro-latino”. But what you won’t hear her say is that she’s “Black”. Now, you might be like, bruh, you said yourself her last (stage) name means “Black”, so what’s the problem? Welp, someone who’s not of Hispanic descent, might not know that “La Negra” literally translated into the “Black girl”. So, this is another way she, and the rest of her people, get to deny, or get outta’ identifying themselves as Black.

So, in English, Amara will always claim being Afro-latino (or “mixed”, just like that dumb-founded “Cali Valley Venus Mirage”), but again, what you won’t hear her say in english, is that she’s “pure-bred” Black.

Moving on…

The “Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals” (DACA), was an immigration policy created by President Obama, allowing some persons who were brought here illegally as children, to receive a two-year renewable deferment from deportation, so they can become eligible for an american work permit. And research has shown that DACA, had not only increased the wages and labor-force participation of persons eligible for this initiative, but it also increased the mental health outcomes for DACA-eligible adults and children. Moreover, the “Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors Act”, or the “Dream Act” for short, proposed almost concurrently with DACA, allowed undocumented immigrants access to private college scholarships for state schools.

Now, according to the Pew Research Center, there are 57 million “latinos” in america. That makes them approximately 18% of the population. And as of 2017, 690,000 unauthorized immigrants were enrolled in DACA—mind you, 90% of these applicants were latinos.

Now, here’s a question: why didn’t more spanish people enroll in DACA?

And understand, I realize that some undocumented hispanics feared that showing their illegal status would get them deported anyway, but if you see hordes of your people participating without consequence, then you’d think the number of enrollees should be double and triple what they were.

But here’s why the overwhelming majority of them didn’t participate…

The reason more lations didn’t enroll in DACA was, ‘cause Obama, a Black president, endorsed it—point blank, period.

So even though hispanics saw their people legitimately benefiting from this initiative, being the complete anglophiles they are, latinos though, well, I’ll just wait for a white president to give me my full citizenship. To hell wit’ that negro president. And every Black person reading this should understand that latinos pride themselves on having and promoting conservative white sentiments. So, when Trump was (s)elected for office, the majority of hispanics thought, finally, that negro in the white house is gone.

Then, much to their surprise, Don Trump ended DACA.

So now, when I hear about them boys from “Immigration and Customs Enforcement” (ICE), swoopin’ down on Julio and ‘em, and packin’ their asses 10 at a time, into vans bound for state deportation centers—two words come to my mind.

GOOD RIDDANCE!

And that’s why in previous posts, I said that Don Trump would be the perfect American president—and yes, I said perfect.

So, for those of you who thought I was trippin’, peep this out—I understood more than anything that Don is such a bigot, that he’d not only force Black people, in some way, shape, or form to have to work together, but I knew he’d show hispanics, how white they’re NOT. 

And I gotta’ say, the “Trumpster” didn’t disappoint.

Moving on…

On June 20^th, of this year, a fifteen-year-old latino boy was killed in the Bronx, New York, allegedly due to a case of mistaken identity, and that boy’s name was Lesandro “Junior” Guzman. Now, this kid died a particularly grizzly death, at the hands of a local gang called the “Trinitarios”. And all jokes aside, I wouldn’t wish that kinda’ death on anyone. So, on June 26^th, of this year, Bronx residents walked to commemorate “Junior’s” death—and I saw several Black men and women walking with them.

Now, I understand that a life was lost here, but those Black men and women walking for Junior, should’ve asked themselves this question: Where were latinos when Eric Garner was killed? Or Stephon Clarke, or Alton Sterling, or Mike Brown, Sandra Bland, Korryn Gaines—and ya’ know I could keep going. Hell, the man who killed Trayvon Martin, Geroge Zimmerman, was one o’ those spanish jerk-offs, who checked the white box on his census form, so he wouldn’t have to think he’s Black.

So, I’ve said all that to say this, let these spanish folk ‘fend for themselves—they’ll be fine—or they won’t, I don’t care. Cause at the end of the day, if you’re a Black man or woman reading this, here’s the stark-raving truth…

THEY DON’T LIKE YOU!

PERIOD!

And let me repeat this for the Black “multiculturalists” out there…

THEY DON’T LIKE YOUR BLACK ASS!

GET OVER IT!

We don’t have any friends in these people, and we never will.

PERIOD.

So, more than ever we need to value the fact that, there ain’t no justice, there’s JUST US!

Now, the beauty of realizing that is, shortly afterwards, we’ll see that we’re all we need.

And like Sam L. Jackson said in Spike Lee’s movie, “Do the Right Thing”: “That’s the double truth, Ruth.”

Later…

P.S.

Now, in a post I wrote about Amara La Negra, I warned the Black people reading this Blog, that they shouldn’t be surprised, if they go to one of her concerts, only to find out that the latinos who paid to see “Amara the Black”, don’t like their “pure-bred” Black ass. Welp, this vid illustrates that point, perfectly. Here’s a video of a George Lopez concert, that some brain-washed Black women decided they were gonna’ attend. Mind you, after George gives his two rules for a latino family: #1. Don't marry somebody Black, and #2. Don’t park in front of our house, the woman he addresses right afterwards, is one of those Black women. Now, these four anglophilic Black female idiots, thought they were gonna’ sashay into this theater, and immediately get noticed by a couple of latino men—and they got noticed alright, just not in the way they figured. Mind you, if you’re a Black man or woman reading this, who’s hell-bent on dating or marrying someone that’s white or non-Black, you deserve whatever kinda’ treatment you get. And even with that said, I still feel sorry for these (brainwashed) sistas.

*WARNING: This video contains extremely harsh and profane language. Viewer discretion is advised.

The gospel of white fascism (Part 30)...What do Love and Hip-Hop's "Amara La Negra" and Marvel's "Black Panther" movie have in common?

Dana Danelys De Los Santos, a.k.a. Amara La Negra, was born on October 4^th, 1990 in Miami, Florida. Her Dominican parents separated when she was a child, and Amara was raised by a single mother who purportedly worked 3 to 5 jobs at a time, to make ends meet.

Amara grew up near the Miami offices of “Univision”, which is america's largest “spanish-speaking” TV network, and being that Amara had an innate fondness for performing, her mother enrolled her in several dance, modeling and acting classes. As a result, Amara pretty much grew up in the entertainment industry.

And her resume reads like this: at age 4, Amara won the title of “Miss Chicquita”, and from ages 4 to 10, Amara appeared on the TV show, “Sabado Gigante” in the 90's. The Sabado Gigante gig, helped her win back-up dancer spots with artists like: Celia Cruz and Gloria Estefan, and at age 19, she won third place in the “Diva Latina” competition. In 2010 and 2011, she appeared in telenovellas for the “Telemundo” TV network and performed “product presentations” for “Mega TV”.

Now, as of late, Amara's become not only a singing sensation in latin america, but she's a star of the hit TV series, “Love and Hip-Hop”. The latest installment of which takes place in Amara's hometown of Miami. And in the show's latest episodes, she's shown a determination to put “Afro-latinas” on the map of the music industry—and the world.

*Note: In the 1970's, the term “Hispanic” was created by the american government cause “Census Bureau” administrators, found that “latino-americans” were checking the “white” or “caucasian” boxes, when they identified themselves. And I'll tell you why this is crucially important to Amara's story later on in this post.

Marvel Studios movie, “Black Panther”, has a release date of February 16^th, 2018 (Black History Month). And Ryan Coogler, who's a brotha, not only directed this film, but wrote it's screenplay as well. Now, I think everyone reading this realizes that Chadwick Bosworth is playing the lead role, and knows this movie is bringing out all the heavy-hitters, as far as dramatic acting is concerned. You have Angela Bassett playing “Ramonda”, who's not only T'Challa's mother, but the “Queen Mother” of Wakanda. There's also Forest Whitaker playing, “Zuri”, who's an elder-statesmen of Wakanda. You have Michael B. Jordan as “Killmonger”, Lupita N'yongo as “Nakia”, who's an international Wakandan spy, etc. And the movie's estimated budget is somewhere in the neighborhood of 150 to 200 million dollars. So Marvel's pulling out all the stops on this one.

And this movie's basically about T'Challa going back to Wakanda after his father (T'Chaka) is killed, to defend his homeland against foes (Killmonger, Klaue), who are plotting it's takeover—and to prevent a world war.

Now, I want you to take note of how this film's narrative (Cinematic Symbolism) has direct roots to white fascism. Whereas, the first initiative enacted by them, once we fell for the trick of integration, was to get Black men out of the home. Additionally, I'll always remember the 70's TV series “Good Times”, and the episode where “James Evans” died. Now, for decades I'd been told that John Amos left the show, due to artistic differences. Turns out, John was fired cause he didn't like the shows demeaning content. Again—take the Black man out of the home.

And after we bit the bait of integration, whitey gave Black women government benefits that would pay for their food, clothing and shelter, under one condition—(again) they couldn't have a man in the house. Now, at least half of Black women didn't take these benefits cause there was still a spirit of unity left in us. And this is the reason why in the “Reagan 80's”, we had the government-funded, three-headed monster of Reganomics, Crack and AIDS to contest with. Now, I've gone over that ad-nauseum, so I won't do it here. But eventually, I'll put out a tome dedicated to breaking these facets of the 80's, and what Black americans went through in that decade, all the way down. So stay tuned.

Moving on...

You should also take note of the fact that brotha Wesley Snipes was going to star in the film adaptation of Marvel's Black Panther in 1992. He was even in talks with Columbia pictures and Stan Lee to produce the film. Now, rumor has it that the film's script wasn't up to par—but what brotha Wesley probably didn't like was being in a flick with a Black male character named “Man-Ape” (Winston Duke, who plays “M'Baku” in Black Panther). Or playing alongside primitive-looking brothas with plates in their lips (above left). So instead, brotha Wesley starred in the movie, “Blade”. And not only was this movie a hit, but it helped him maintain his dignity while doing it. Kudos to brotha Wesley!

Now, you might be sayin', bruh—what's any of this gotta' do with Amara La Negra, or what she and the Black Panther movie have in common?

Here's the answer...

The most valuable social currency in america, or anywhere else on the globe, is “Black street cred”. PERIOD.

And that's exactly what Marvel studios and Amara “LA NEGRA”, which literally translates into Amara “the Black”, are trying to capitalize on.

Now, remember when I said in the 70's, the american government created the term “hispanic” cause so many of america's Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, Colombians, etc. were identifying themselves as “white”? Well, let me give you another tid-bit about this regarding “latino” rappers.

The rapper “Fat Joe” was once interviewed about 90's era Hip-Hop and how brothas were wearing “African medallions” (left). In it, he said: “Well, I always wore my gold (jewelry), so I don't know what they were trippin' off.” Mind you, it was rap music and Hip-Hop culture—a culture created by Black americans, that made him rich.

So now in 2018, we see Amara “the Black” claiming that she's “unapologetically Afro-Latino” (and this term was blatantly taken from Dr. Umar Johnson who says he's “Unapologetically African”). So basically, not only do both Joe and Amara understand that Black people create the best genres of music, but they also know that Hip-Hop culture, trumps all others in it's popularity, especially with young people around the world.

In other words, Amara doesn't care about identifying herself as Black, she's just hustlin' our music and culture.

Also, the name Amara “the Black”, is directly insulting to our people—she's mocking us with that ridiculous surname.

Additionally, I'll never forget how a former latino friend of mine, once gave me a shirt that said, “Puerto Rico club” on it's back. And I remember passing a group of young latino men while wearing it. After seeing it, they got into a hot argument—and I remember this one latin guy repeating, “Nah, nah, he ain't Puerto Rican—he's Black.” Mind you, they did this in a way saying, he's not one of us, he's one of them. And trust me, 99.9% of latinos, feel the same way.

Now, with the Black Panther movie, the stakes are even higher. Cause first off, what's being sold to us in Black Panther is a culture of obsessing over comic books, video games and super-hero flicks. Meaning, what's being promoted, especially to young Black men, is why we should adopt the tenets of “negro nerdom”. And at the nucleus of this culture are traits that would have us subscribing to being effeminate and immature males—not MEN. And this absolutely fits with the zeitgeist of mainstreamed homosexuality. Which is what white fascists ultimately want us to adopt.

Bottom line of their agenda is to keep Black men, who have the most genetic power to breed them out of existence, from pro-creating.

Additionally, what Marvel wants is that cultural gold standard of “Black street cred”—cause it would cast a legitimately cool light on the whole of the Marvel universe.

So I've said all that to say this: as a Black person, don't be surprised if you go to Amara La Negra's concert and find out these dark-skinned latinos have a problem with you—a “pure-bred” Black man or woman. Cause like I've said so many times in the past, it seems like every non-Black person in america lives by the same motto, and that's this...

It's OK to love Black culture, but you should hate Black people.

Thus, non-Black folks in america have no problem dressing like us, dancing like us, singing like us, or talking like us, while tryin' to make us hate ourselves.

So remember fam—this credo, along wit' Amara's big “backside”, are the only things this “afro-wigged, pseudo-Black” latin woman, is ultimately out to sell.

P.S.

Here's Dr. John Henrik Clarke's classic lecture on why Black people, “have no friends” in other ethnic groups. Now, this vid is 35 minutes long, but just listen to the first 10. And once you do, I promise, you'll have no choice but to listen to the whole of Dr. Clarke's masterfully motivating, Black Nationalist dissertation.

THIS IS STRAIGHT FIRE Y'ALL!!
