Many on here know I'm from the MidWest, St. Louis, Missouri to be exact. In St. Louis there's two races one White and one Black and there are minorities as I long recall but are not in any significant numbers to be recognized as a group there. Although in Chicago there is high numbers of Latinos there's not that many in many parts of the MidWest where it's just mostly Blacks and large numbers of Whites. Coming to the West Coast has made me aware of a new thing called minority racism where racism traditionally came from Whites intending to suppress Blacks out here it's the other way around. So the question is can other minorities have racial issues against Blacks. We know that during the Obama campaign many minorities in California and other western states deliberately voted against Obama to strifle the progress of what they thought was a Black Advancement. Also many Asians, Latinos, Indians and even Native Americans have negative opinions of Blacks is it safe to admit there might be such a thing as minority racism? A kind of pecking order that even consumes our brothers from Africa and the Carribean whom come here and have negative opinions of Blacks and work against Black progress for their own reasons? Can instances of this minority racism be seen in other parts of the world where oppressed groups fight fight to keep down other oppressed groups in some form of disdained pecking order? Your thoughts.
