African American and Mexican racial division in California: radio host Davey D explains why Black and Brown peoples are getting divided

For centuries Afro descendants and Native peoples have coexisted in this continent, but today racial hatred between Black and Mexican populations seem to be increasing in California and other states in the U.S.

What is making African Americans and Latinos get divided? Meanwhile both communities seem to be hurt by racist policies in the U.S. I spoke with Davey D, a radio show host from Oakland, CA, about this concerning problem and what we all can do to solve it.




Racial division is promoted by media:
So called Latino media separated from African American media



Davey D participated at Netroot Nations 2009 conference as a panelist on "Mixtapes to Myspace: How Hip Hop Builds Movements" along with Rev. Lennox Yearwood, Jr., Paradise Gray, Kimberly "Dr. Goddess" Ellis and Jasiri X.
