The national conversation about giving reparations to African-Americans descended from slavery is more or less dead in the water, but that isn’t stopping some progressives from demanding reparations for other racial minorities. In a new book called “Latinos: A New Story of American Racism,” UCLA Professor Laura Gomez not only makes the case that “Latinos” is an invented race meant to further codify white supremacy, she also argues that there are ways that Americans can pay back that racism by delivering various forms of reparations to the Hispanic community.
In an interview with UCLA to promote the book, Gomez said, “Thankfully, we’re talking a lot more about reparations to African Americans. I think that’s a long-overdue conversation. How do we repair the damage that racism has done?
“Because of the way that American military, government, and corporations infiltrated Central America and destroyed the indigenous way of life, and slaughtered so many people,” she continued, “people in Central America should get asylum here, like we had asylum for the Vietnamese, for Cubans. We must allow those folks in.”
Gomez continued, saying that the U.S. could give amnesty to illegal aliens as a way to give back to the Latino people.
“Another is amnesty, a pathway to citizenship for undocumented persons who are here, have not committed violent crimes, and can prove that they’ve been here for a certain amount of time,” she said. “Again, we’re looking at a different story of anti-Latino racism. And so what does that suggest in terms of what we might do as a society to make amends, repair the relationship, and bring people into the fold as full-fledged Americans.”
Unsurprisingly, progressive professors from other universities have fallen all over themselves to praise Gomez for the ideas contained in her book.
“Gómez also reveals the nefarious roles the United States has played in Latin America—from military interventions and economic exploitation to political interference—that, taken together, have destabilized national economies to send migrants northward over the course of more than a century,” said Brigham Young University’s James-David Gonzalez. “It’s no coincidence that the vast majority of Latinos migrate from the places most impacted by this nation’s dirty deeds, leading Gómez to a bold call for reparations.”
We would certainly agree that it’s “no coincidence” that the vast majority of migrants come from countries to which it is possible to travel to the U.S. by land, but that’s hardly a condemnation of U.S. policy in Latin America.
Anyway, this strikes us as just another round of racial grievance politics, another attempt to divide the country by race, and another excuse to get progressive policies pushed through by yelling “whites are racist” in the most academic-friendly tones possible. If this is the Democratic Party’s big idea to keep Latinos from fleeing to the other party, they may want to reconsider.

archivos que más convertirás a otros formatos de archivo para
adaptarse a los diversos tamaños, resoluciones y diferentes extensiones que puedes necesitar
para usarlas en programas, redes sociales, etc. Conseguir recetas de galletas fáciles de hacer en casa puede
ser una tarea realmente sencilla si dispones de harina,
azúcar, huevos y mantequilla, ingredientes que, como ves, son muy cómodos de conseguir y bastante económicos.
Os cuento el mayor secreto de hacer galletas caseras, igual os habíais fijado ya, pero la proporción de los ingredientes es 1-2-3.
Una parte de azúcar, dos partes de mantequilla y tres partes
de harina. Recuerdo que así fue como hice mis primeras galletas de mantequilla caseras (somos tres en casa.
Es facilísimo, pero hay algunos trucos que os van a servir para perfeccionar estas galletas o modificar la
receta para conseguir algo diferente, como unas galletas de
chocolate casero. Estas galletas para niños se hacen con M&M’s, Lacasitos o grageas de chocolate
¡ Esta receta de galletas de mantequilla también es estupenda para
hacer con los niños por su sencillez como he comentado
anteriormente.
Thanks for the marvelous posting! I actually enjoyed reading it, you are a great author.I will always bookmark your blog and will
