Illegal immigration hurt black people the most, specifically black men who mostly work blue collar jobs. Over 2 million jobs lost in the black community over 15 years thanks to illegals over saturating the market and lowering wages.

these are not opinions these are facts, black people don’t have time to fight everyone else’s fight any longer the clock is ticking. Put the cape down and call ICE :camby:

This here is indefensible; they are blatantly keeping black people out of the workforce in exchange for cheaper labor (illegals). what rational thinking black person co-signs that? :mindblown:

I told y'all before, black dems are the new uncle toms - show me a black republican that's co-signing latinos displacing us, i mean they're the ones that hate their own right? :comeon:

You're such a slimy piece of shyt. You benefit from people not reading the stories you link.

The first story isn't really even about "illegals" but racist hiring practices, racist clients and racist managers at that particular agency.




The second story is similar.



It's almost like the "job creators" are the [main] problem.
racists doing the hiring and illegals getting the jobs

Whats your point?

So why are there so many unemployed black people in all these industries? :sas1:

I keep hearing that illegals, who are mostly hispanic and come from Mexico or Central America do jobs we can't or won't do.

Oh word?

So which jobs are those?

And dont forget that time the president of Mexico called black workers lazy and undeserving of employment: http://www.thecoli.com/threads/reme...-people-in-favor-of-illegal-hispanics.399326/

So what jobs are we talking about?

are we talking about the temp labor jobs that blacks don't get hired for?

When companies hire temp workers by race, black applicants lose out | Reveal

http://www.thecoli.com/threads/npr-...-over-black-citizens-update-govt-sues.420004/

Are we talking about the construction jobs black laborers can't compete in because they're undercut and suffer from negative stereotypes from?

How about in places like Miami where black laborers are constantly subjected to discriminatory hiring and employment practices that threaten their livelihood

What about in places where Spanish speakers shift the standards for employment requirements?

How about in Miami where the influx of hispanics dont even want to vote for qualified black politicians but then blame us for not being involved politically?

if there is a choice between going after a minority for something vs going after a white business owner who do you think folks are going to go after?

Until these businesses start getting punished I refuse to believe any of this is serious. In the grand scale these raids are accomplishing very little.
600 black people getting a job isn't "accomplishing little"

I'm saying we are preoccupied with scraps when rich white men are prospering at historic levels.

If that sentence translates to "blacks should give up low wage jobs to illegals" then capitalist/right wing propoganda has taken a toll on your critical thinking ability.
You haven't answered what jobs all these black people should be doing while illegals do them.

Why were there so many unemployed black people in that town in Mississippi? You keep dodging this

Those same illegals putting kids thru college and getting by but that’s not what we want for black folk right? :ohhh:

these dudes are clowns :mjlol:

Makes you wonder whats the point of citizenship anymore.

They can become nurses and lawyers too :dead:

Exactly, people can celebrate this but they will just go right back to this or any cheaper option after. Even the president who wants a wall got illegals working at his golf courses, etc.

@Alive in 85 @Savvir @Real

Coetta Scott King wrote letters to congress almost 30 years ago about this.

the disrespect you have for black labor is astonishing.

The Forgotten Letter of Coretta Scott King
5-6 minutes
In any age of rapidly changing political and partisan perspectives, it is perhaps well to remember how the immigration debate was originally framed back in 1986 when the Reagan/Bush Amnesty plan, put forth to placate the demands of Corporate America for cheap labor, was first enacted. Ignored at the time were the protests which began as early as 1969, when Cesar Chavez and members of the United Farm Workers marched with the Reverend Ralph Abernathy and U.S. Senator Walter Mondale to the border with Mexico to demand the cessation of employers’ practice of importing illegal labor as a means of cutting wages and reducing thousands of their workers to the most grinding poverty.

The government’s response to such protests and demands for economic justice? In the 1980s at a time when African American teenage unemployment approached a disgraceful 80 percent, Big Business cynically petitioned the INS for more visas for cheap foreign labor on grounds that there was an “unskilled labor shortage”. They largely got what they demanded. While Democrats courageously resisted such blatant attempts to lower the wages of legal Hispanic and African Americans, Reagan Amnesty apologists claimed that Americans wouldn’t stoop to perform the “dirty work” that only illegal workers would perform, ignoring the obvious fact that unemployed legal workers gladly and gratefully collect garbage and work in the coal mines if decent wages were paid.

In fact the pleas for economic justice in America were made many years before by the great African American educator, Booker T. Washington, who made his famous “cast down your bucket where you are” speech at the Atlanta International Exposition in 1895. Having recognized the racist and notorious practice of Big Business of importing and hiring cheap immigrant labor in order to avoid hiring African Americans, Washington pleaded: (T)o those (of you) who look to the incoming of those of foreign birth, cast down your bucket where you are. (If you but do so) we shall stand by you with a devotion that no foreigner can approach, ready to interlace our industrial, commercial, civil and religious life with yours.”

It should be no surprise, therefore, that these demands for economic justice were taken up by the wife of Martin Luther King, who in 1991 joined with eight CEO’s of America’s leading African American organizations to oppose Republican Senator Orin Hatch’s bill to do away with sanctions against employers who persisted in hiring illegal aliens as a means of discriminating and reducing the wages of against African Americans.

“We are concerned, Senator Hatch” Coretta Scott King wrote in her now largely forgotten letter, “That your proposed remedy…will cause another problem—the revival of …discrimination against black and brown U.S. documented workers, in favor of cheap labor.”

Given the success of Big Business in lobbying the U.S. government to ignore these pleas for economic justice — on grounds of “humanitarianism” no less — it is perhaps the ultimate irony that this success has translated also in flipping the partisan narrative to the point where even legal immigrants have been tricked into adopting the Reagan/Bush agenda against their own economic interest under the ideological banner of the party that for decades opposed it.

But there may now be signs of enlightenment by those who have been most oppressed by the Reagan/Bush agenda. In 2014, by a strong majority of 53 percent, male Latinos voted for the Texas Republican Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, who had promised to stop the notorious practice of luring illegal immigrants—even little children— to their deaths in the desert with such promises as amnesty, and in-state-tuition.

And so, gradually the tide may be turning in Booker T. Washington’s and Coretta Scott King’s demand for economic justice. Even in Germany today, where Merkel basked in the “humanitarian” glow of luring hundreds of thousands un-vetted illegal immigrants with promises of cash rewards (but no jobs, of course), the spectacle of teeming throngs of desperate young males being herded into the most degrading “refugee” camps, or worse showered with useless “vouchers,” may be finally revealing to the world the immorality of luring people from their homes, families, and culture for little more than the political aggrandizement of the politicians who created it. The tragedy, of course, is that the billions spent on such self-defeating endeavors could have been instead been spent on providing safety and economic help in zones created for their protection in the home countries.

In America, no true reform can ever come until the most demagogic politicians cease their deliberate obfuscation of the difference between legal and illegal immigration, and begin streamlining the procedures for legal immigration, which is now so difficult that relatively few can navigate or afford it. When this is done, any wall built will always have doors.

Hispanics are fundamentally the black economic structure by undercutting black lower and middle class families with cheap labor supply

We do not need anymore of them here

Capitalism in the USA is heavily regulated, so you seem to be operating from some notion of strict literalism to a concept that doesn't actually exist.

The jobs that raised generations of aspirational black youth are non-existent as well as opportunities for those same youth to gain critical skills as a result of being in DIRECT competition with millions of people who undercut their access to the job market.

Again, temp visas are not illegal immigration. Anything thats documented, is inherently not-illegal immigration (i.e. refugee status).

Tell me. Who used to work in these fast food jobs before swaths of illegals found refuge there? U.S. fast food caught in immigration crosshairs | Reuters

Then tell me why youth unemployment (and other ailments like crime, drug use, etc.) is so high in urban black youth :sas2:
