Yall keep falling for and propagating this dumb shyt......
Hispanic - is a multi racial linguistic term
Latin America(Latinos) - is a multi racial geopolitical region

Census Estimate: U.S. southerner Population is 2rd Largest in the Americas at 120 Million
2018
Region...Population...Percentage
Northeast....56,111,079.....17.2%
Midwest......68,308,744.....20.9%
West...........77,993,663.....23.8%
South........124,753,948.....38.1%
United States Population Growth by Region
EXAMPLE: If the "south" is a geopolitical term designating a land region and "southerner" is a term designating multiple races of people from that geographic area why should I as an African American get up in arms ...especially when damn near half the population of "southerners" are African American?
For the short bus people a geopolitical region, linguistic group, and racial group are all distinct things.
The only thing that would make sense to compare Latinos to are something like "Southerners", "New Englanders", etc ...not a racial group
Don't get me wrong you can compare anything I can compare you to a brick provided I state what attributes I'm comparing. That said the comparisons are always ridiculous. My favorite is Latinos don't all vote for the same people see we(as in African Americans) need to do that also. Fool Latinos don't vote for the same party for the same reason southerners don't vote for the same party. There is a variety of subgroups(national, racial, ethnic, etc) with different political experiences; of course all Latinos aren't going to vote the same way

Who Is Black?
JUNE 10, 2001
ROSA CLEMENTE
Yesterday, an interesting thing happened to me. I was told I am not Black.
The kicker for me was when my friend stated that the island of Puerto Rico was not a part of the African Diaspora. I wanted to go back to the old skool playground days and yell: “You said what about my momma?!” But after speaking to several friends, I found out that many Black Americans and Latinos agree with him. The miseducation of the Negro is still in effect!
I am so tired of having to prove to others that I am Black, that my peoples are from the Motherland, that Puerto Rico, along with Cuba, Panama and the Dominican Republic, are part of the African Diaspora. Do we forget that the slave ships dropped off our people all over the world, hence the word Diaspora?
The Atlantic slave trade brought Africans to Puerto Rico in the early 1500s. Some of the first slave rebellions took place on the island of Puerto Rico. Until 1846, Africanos on the island had to carry a libreta to move around the island, like the passbook system in apartheid South Africa. In Puerto Rico, you will find large communities of descendants of the Yoruba, Bambara, Wolof and Mandingo people. Puerto Rican culture is inherently African culture.
There are hundreds of books that will inform you, but I do not need to read book after book to legitimize this thesis. All I need to do is go to Puerto Rico and look all around me. Damn, all I really have to do is look in the mirror every day.
I am often asked what I am—usually by Blacks who are lighter than me and by Latinos/as who are darker than me. To answer the $64,000 question, I am a Black Boricua, Black Rican, Puertorique’a! Almost always I am questioned about why I choose to call myself Black over Latina, Spanish, Hispanic. Let me break it down.
I am not Spanish. Spanish is just another language I speak. I am not a Hispanic. My ancestors are not descendants of Spain, but descendants of Africa. I define my existence by race and land. (Borinken is the indigenous name of the island of Puerto Rico.)
Being Latino is not a cultural identity but rather a political one. Being Puerto Rican is not a racial identity, but rather a cultural and national one. Being Black is my racial identity. Why do I have to consistently explain this to those who are so-called conscious? Is it because they have a problem with their identity? Why is it so bad to assert who I am, for me to big-up my Africanness?
My Blackness is one of the greatest powers I have. We live in a society that devalues Blackness all the time. I will not be devalued as a human being, as a child of the Supreme Creator.
Although many of us in activist circles are enlightened, many of us have baggage that we must deal with. So many times I am asked why many Boricuas refuse to affirm their Blackness. I attribute this denial to the ever-rampant anti-Black sentiment in America and throughout the world, but I will not use this as an excuse. Often Puerto Ricans who assert our Blackness are not only outcast by Latinos who identify more with their Spanish Conqueror than their African ancestors, but we are also shunned by Black Americans who do not see us as Black.
Nelly Fuller, a great Black sociologist, stated:
Until one understands the system of White supremacy, anything and everything else will confuse you.
Divide and conquer still applies.
Listen people: Being Black is not just skin color, nor is it synonymous with Black Americans. To assert who I am is the most liberating and revolutionary thing I can ever do. Being a Black Puerto Rican encompasses me racially, ethically and most importantly, gives me a homeland to refer to.
So I have come to this conclusion: I am whatever I say I am! (Thank you, Rakim.)
If we get Reparations, the south would be the mecca for black people in the western hemisphere!

The land is cheap, in abundance, and because of the growing population, would cause a boom in income for a lot of people if they play the game right. It would be wild to know the place that was once the home of slaves, is now ran by the descendants of slaves! That would be one of the greatest stories ever told!
Look yall. We know. We know. We know Hispanic/Latino is a cultural term.
All these similar but somewhat distinct nationalities have amalgamated in the United States, unlike anywhere else.
We know Brazilians and Panamians and Guatemalans and Dominicans don't call themselves Hispanic or Latino. We know. But when they come to the U.S., the combination of cultures requires an easy way to refer to this distinct collection of nationalities under an umbrella term...for the census.
How do you reference this massive diverse cultural group, without having to refer to each individual country represented.....you call it Hispanic (implies Spanish speaking culture) or Latino (implies someone from Latin America/Caribbean, but not French or English speaking countries in the Americas). Plus, on the census it let's you identify your ancestral nationality and race. So all bases are covered.
We know neither term implies a race. We know there are multiple races and mixtures involved.
We get it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nah, if Trump was smart, he would release STERILIZATION agents on the Hispanic population if he hates them so much. If you can't remove them effectively from America, sterilize them.

Like people have said proximity of Latin America to the US drives these numbers up. the US and Africa are separated by one huge body of water which is the Atlantic Ocean. Africans can't just come here in droves (regardless of educational attainment) or jump the border, or come by sea. They have to actually go through a process of going to an embassy, interviewing process and acquiring a visa (being at the mercy of embassy officials who can deny you a visa at his/her own discretion with no reason or justification for the denial/rejection) etc...
The educated Africans will eventually want to start to stay or return to their countries of origin IF they develop and stabilize. The only viable option in my opinion is to increase the Black population within the borders because Back immigration en masse from either the Black Caribbean countries (lack of sizable population) or sub-Saharan Africa (fastest growing region in the world with a current population of 1 billion) is just not feasible because its too far away.
