That's a new one on me.
I know you are Hispanic and by your tone you seem to feel a brotherhood with blacks for the prejudice they experience. In my life I have had several very close friends who were Hispanic and I don't mean that in the "some of my best friends" sense. They were bff's, to use the current vernacular.
I was close with them and I met and associated with their families and friends. They felt no such racial brotherhood and in fact most of them disliked blacks intensely. This was not a Southern racial thing, it was more like a caste thing.
They were well educated and not conservative to my knowledge but they felt a definite superiority far greater than I ever felt as a Southern boy.
Most of them originated from Spanish cultures where Hispanic blacks and non-black were well integrated for hundreds of years but the "blanco" pride was pervasive.
I am willing to bet that race and politics are a hot topic at your family reunions.
