Today, one of you sent me this, and asked me to share it and I think it's very important to do so. Please check the site out and help if you can.
american whites were just caught on footage, chasing haitian migrants on horseback with whips in their hands. on horses. with whips.
and yet, black immigrants are still completely dismissed from all conversations about the violence against immigrants. for as long as i could remember, mestizo mexicans and central americans have been the face of immigration-related abuse… so much that people wrongly assume these are the sole victims of that violence.
haitian immigrants represent a disproportionate amount (44%!) of people currently detained in ICE quarters (as of 2020), and since haiti is overwhelmingly black, most - if not all - of those figures are black people. which means the attacks on haiti are automatically attacks on blackness.
it worries me a lot how haitian migrants are being treated and have been treated by not only the united states, but the rest of latin/caribbean/south america. there have been extended violences toward haiti from the entire americas for so long, it’s naive to say that it’s not related to how black the country is. to be black is to be unthought of, and unalive.
and it’s so telling that people won’t bother empathizing with the victims of forced migration unless they look a certain (non-black) way.
(if i find any haiti crowdfunds for haitian immigrants, i’ll add them)
You don’t have to be black, it just means you support us, you stand by us and your for us.
