On this episode of Slauson Girl Speaks, I have a discussion with Black and Brown folks, on Black and Brown relationships in Los Angeles in 2020. We discuss historical tensions of the two groups, as well as the rise in attacks against Latino street vendors posted online by Black youth. The conversation also touched on the immigrant experience and what causes migration to the U.S, as well as many of the anti-Black attitudes in the Latino community. Jobs, white supremacy, colorism and what true solidarity looks like for both communities was also the topic of conversation--along with so much more!
Guest: Danny Carter, co-founder of Buy Back The Block L..A, a financial and real estate literacy group based in Los Angeles, Memo Torres, Writer and photographer at L.A TACO, Abigail Lopez-Byrd, Founder and Executive Director of Color Compton.
