George Zimmerman's a Latino who would himself be profiled in a place like Arizona. But it was his anti-blackness that informed his violence.

As non-black Latinos, when we say that Dylann Roof hates people of color, we're doing the violence of erasing black victims.

This is why confronting anti-blackness among Latinos is so immediate. When it feels hard and uncomfortable, think about Charleston.
-
When we non-black Latinos feel like dealing with anti-blackness is hard, remember that this is a matter of life and death for black people.
