in NYC, the anti-Haitians stuff ended in the 90s, South Florida took longer, prolly because they are more Haitians down there
idk why folks get so defensive when you point out that stuff
Race Riot unlikely to happen due to continued influx of Caribbean Blacks

lemme guess and none of this was reciprocated. They all just came into America with nothing but love and admiration in their hearts for those blacks

Is that a good thing, though?
Many ppl share the opinion that AAs shouldn't assimilate to (white) American culture. But it's OK when immigrant Black's assimilate to (black) American culture?
Why can't America just be America

can you explain what (white) American culture is and how a person can assimilate into (white) American culture so America can just be America?

I'm certainly not defensive. To me its just tribalism and that tribalism morphed into something worse i.e Zoe Pound.
Its just that I never witnessed any Haitian vs AA fights/beef here in downstate NY.

I don't know. I live in Miami. I've never met someone that wasn't an immigrant.(exaggeration)
But I see comments on here about how white ppl are stealing black ppls culture. Or black ppl are c00ning or acting white.
IMO, just let all that stuff mix together. It's all American at the end of the day

Nope.
Im just going by what ive heqrd from friends and relatives and Haitian celebrities.(i can link you guys videos of haitians talking about this) Haitians used to get jumped for being Haitian, the whole HBO (haitian body odor) thing, haitians pretending to be Jamaicans in NYC (by the 80s being Jamaican was "cool" in NY)
I mean, the Zoe Pound was partially created because Haitians were getting jumped
If not then:
- When did I say assimilating into white culture was a bad thing? AA's have long assimilated into larger American culture. Assimilation is just a natural process in which the larger culture absorbs the small one.
- I only general said Haitians assimilated into American.

True story.
This Willie Lynch division is bullshyt and I'm sick of it quite frankly.
I will say that there's blood on both parties' hands. Haitians/Caribbeans come to America for a better standard of living. They emphasize education and financial stability and independence. As far as the beef between AAs and Haitians, AAs clowned Haitians for being broke, having accents, their language, how they tend to dress, and their lack of familiarity and connection with AA culture. Combine this with the fact that American society demonized Haitians as HIV-carrying, voodoo-mongering deviants and you can understand how Haitians felt very disrespected not only by white society but by AAs. In turn, Haitians drew the line in the sand and looked down on AA culture and how it's general lack of upward mobility despite AAs' relative lack of struggle compared to that of Haitians' (migrating to a foreign country; having to learn a foreign language, working menial jobs, etc.). Haitians became comfortable with the fact that they were outsiders and used their isolation to focus on education and building wealth. And many Haitians saw that they were achieving more success than their AA counterparts who, in their view, suffered from a victim mentality and refused to control their individual and collective destiny.
The beef boils down to blacks not accepting each other and resorting to tribalism. And while this continues to this day, white people are laughing until their faces are beet red.
