That avowed white supremacists can tolerate some non-black Latinos indicates the degree to which we can absorb some privileges of whiteness.

Dylann Roof also points out how Latino media preferences whiteness. Dude was probably watching

Make no mistake about it: Dylann Roof was more honest about Latino investment in whiteness than most Latinos are even willing to admit.

Dylan Roof did his research, observed Latino media, looked at white people in the South America with am emphasis on places like Argentina.

Yet the dominant narrative is that Dylann Roof also hated (non-black) Latinos. This is so opportune and typical of us. Damn.

Look. Dylann Roof's hatred of black people is based on defending a Latino man, George Zimmerman. This is shitty, but true.

As non-black Latinos, we can highlight Dylann Roof hated some of us. But, to be honest, we have to admit that he sided with some of us, too.

Dylann Roof didn't mentioned Latino immigrants. He didn't complain about people speaking Spanish. And he didn't shoot up a Latino church.

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.
