Even today, many stateless ethnic groups around the world from the Kurds to the Kosovar Albanians to the Palestinians, Tibetans, Uyghurs and so on, are still trying to create a country of their own & to stop being oppressed.

In North America, it's not limited to the African Americans, the American Indian reservations or the US-Mexican border, ethnic enclaves like Acadia of Louisiana and Madawaska in Maine are largely rural isolated francophone areas without much political representation. +

[devulboy1]

They are the most known racial minority groups in the US who struggled to fight racism, poverty & cultural devastation. This goes to First Nations of Canada (including the Metis), Alaskan Natives (such as the Inuit) & Pacific Islanders like Hawaiians, as well Puerto Ricans & US territorial subjects in Guam & Samoa. The impact of white European (in this case, North American) colonialism is omnipresent. It is great black Americans, US Latinos & American Indians alike can unite on common ground. +

"iv heard that blacks have a large,uhh,hold on.....",hahahaha,but good video.

[Choctawu]

Still hearing echos of racism simply by the facts stated in the video.

I wonder what each one would do if they were given the power to rule this country or if they wanted something but had to sacrifice something to get, which would it be the Indian, Latino, or Black?

These are the wrong ones to make decisions about anything, because they are not accepting their roles they played in history one to another, which was very very very divisive to become like Europeans for acceptance. Self haters

[AdawehiMeliLayton]

Great Video! 5 starz!

[hwiseman]

Um, Indians WERE enslaved...and weren't too wise and clever not to be. What kind of statement was that? Implying Africans weren't clever? Of course they were...but they were sold from kingdoms who formed economic alliances with the colonizers to procure slaves. White men died there...that's why they needed Africans to get slaves...there have been slaves for thousands of years in Africa.  Get real. And I'm Indian too...so don't go there.

[harlemndn1]

he didn't say or mean the blacks weren't clever. He was just saying that the Indians knew the terrain and the environment favored them. You and I both know that there was a lot of disconnect formed from surviving the long haul in the ships from Africa and then being in a land that was totally foreign. As it was there was a policy to exterminate Indian tribes. The state of California had money that was allocated just to pay anyone who would turn in a dead Indian.

[devulboy1]

Sadly he's right, the African American experience brought to the new world in bondage was terrible, but as a people they overcame a tragic history as their descendants adapt to this nation for the last 400 years. Most of Africa was under European colonial rulers until the 1950s & 60s. Another people in world history to survive as a diaspora under intense political, religious & ethnic persecution are the Jews of pre-1940 Europe. They started a movement Zionism to restore their homeland Israel. +

[1980vince]

@hwiseman africans got proven to not have native american blood, so stop lying go hang out with the puerto ricans the tianos all got slaughtered they were replaced by african slaves. so together they created the puerto rican.

[kingstaffy]

@1980vince it was proven by a recent study that a significant proportion of puerto ricans have native taino blood in them. they were not all slaughtered like u stated, yes most of them were killed and died, but not straight away, there was breeding between spaniards and tainos

[yemonja100]

@hwiseman I know very well he means Indians were literally grounded in the land and had not had a similar experience of the Middle Passage meaning (yet). Indians were not "prepped" for enslavment as Black Africans were.Check the dictionary; you will see "clever" also carries the meaning of "good health". Of course Indians were in good health by being at home. Why would he say that Black Africans were not clever and then mention "Return to the Source". Return to the source and think again

[MrZEEL33]

Human Power Mental Pride....Nice vid brother take care and be safe.

[KYMAMI]

if we were devided to conquer id join my Native people.Native pride!

[SubcomandateMarcos]

you're a moron. mexicans are native americans.

[espada9]

There was NEVER a Mexican Indian north of the Rio Grande until the Spanish came to Mexico and conquered it, this land was originally the land of American Indian tribes, and NONE were ever Mexican, or Hispanic, or Latino, or Meztiso, or Aztec, or Mayan, or Toltec, or Chicano, or Cholo, or Vato, or Homie.

Mexicans are indigenous to the land SOUTH of the Rio Grande!

[SubcomandateMarcos]

you are clearly a fucking moron. if you knew anything about aboriginal american history then you'd know that the mexica (aztecs) share the same language as the Comanche, Tongva, Pauite, Shoshone and 30 other native tribes north of the Rio Grande. Now please go kill yourself.

[boostgst]

HAHA owned

[boostgst]

HAHAHA OMG espada9 you need to wake up. What you said made me laugh. So what you are saying is that before the Spaniards came the Rio Grande was the border? HAHA Let me guess, North of the Rio Gran they called themselves American tribes and South of the Rio Gran they called themselves Mexican tribes? LOL Dumb ass!

[espada9]

Why is it that Mexicans never marched through Mexico City and claimed their "indigenous" rights in Mexico? THAT is the land of your native ancestors, not the USA.

Why is it that Mexicans don't organize and March, and riot against a corrupt thieving government in Mexico, YOUR LAND?

[boostgst]

They did, have you heard of the Mexican revolution you idiot. What does that have to do with the video?

[kingstaffy]

@KYMAMI how can mexicans be more like whites. go and ask a mexican r u white, 9 times out of 10 he/she will say no im brown/native indian. a chicano rapper lil rob, he basically look like a white man. But in his videos, he always talks about brown pride.

[rhibac]

@kingstaffy

have you been to mexico there are white mexicans about 9% of mexico, and then the largest group are half white half native mexicans whom are called meztizos

[SmokeYourAss]

@rhibac You are wrong meztizos are half Jew and Jew is not White

[rhibac]

@SmokeYourAss

no yourr wrong, completely wrong! jews have nothing to do with race and western jews from germany and other european nations are in fact white and were and is, even in israel they have deported african ethiopian jews from israel.

zionist jews are white/european theres a few authentic semitic jews but most semitic people are arabs whom ar muslim

[SmokeYourAss]

@rhibac Are you kidding me I'm not talking about pretend Jews, I'm talking about the Jew RACE. I'm talking about the hooknose mongrel vampires that do nothing but destroy any White country they ever get any power over.

[johnpaul650gmailcom]

Because, someone of the Mexican-race hates a negroe doesnt make them any less Mexican. Even if the person hated a negro which was a citizen of mexico and/or was ethnically Mexican. Ethnicty and place of birth are contingent matters and could have been otherwise. Being-Mexican could not have been otherwise. The Mexican-race is a product of the North American environment. Being-Mexican is a relative relation. One of those relations is the absence of negro blood.

[tuberpie68]

You're scarcely making any sense, now. Get some psychological help, before you're making none, at all.

[johnpaul650gmailcom]

It's not my fault you can't grasp simple reasoning. Maybe if you take a couple of courses at a jr college, that might help you. But, if you are unintelligent, then your hopeless.

[johnpaul650gmailcom]

Their can never be unity. A relationship of unity stands between two equals. Mexicans are not equal to blacks. Mexicans are coming to America as conquerors, while blacks are a race of slaves. Blacks are inferior to us. Blacks are a race of parasites, while Mexicans are a race of people that produce something out-of-nothing. Big difference. We live in two different worlds.

[jblive1985]

Por qué usted dice ese negro de im que encuentro esa ofensiva

[QuantumUni]

Your consciousness can say what it wants to spew. But your subconscious mind knows this is wrong, this is feature God planted in you, You "know" Good and Evil, and you know that this way of thinking will only end you up in the lake of fire of internity(if you believe). Not a pleasant thought but its true.

[zuwenaw]

Your offensiveness comes from ignorance. African ppl always make something out of nothing. As a blk woman I can attest to that! U compare urself to being a Conqueror? Conquerors are the ppl who kill, dehumanize and brainwash others. If u think of one race as inferior to another I feel sorry 4 u. So as a Mexican...who is superior to you?

[tuberpie68]

What a disgusting PIG! We Mexica are not even a "race". We can be of any "race". There are many black Mexicans. And I mean ETHNICALLY Mexican, not just politically Mexican(i.e., citizens of Mex. Repub.) There have been black Mexicans since the early colonial period. Military leader & early Pres. of Mexico, Vicente Guerrero was largely of African blood, as was the last Mexican Governor of Alta Calif., Pio Pico. Many Mexicans unknowingly have black ancestry. You self-hating, racist PIG!

[johnpaul650gmailcom]

Theres no credible source that supports the claim that Vicente Guerrero was a negro, or even part negro. All such claims are based on recent beliefs and desires. The foundation for such irrational thinking; is a painting which negroes insist that Guerreros hair resembles negro hair. Ive seen the painting and the hair doesnt resemble what they insist. Nor is there any credible evidence that pico pico was part negro. Whatever negroes are in Mexico ,or were in Mexico had no influence.

[tuberpie68]

You're, clearly, a confirmed, ignorant, irrational racist, you disgusting pig! I'm not familiar with the details of Guerrero's linage, but I've studied Calif.'s, & my local, history all my life. The evidence of Pico's African ancestry is the many photos of him(& his bro., Gen. Andres Pico)& the many censuses of Calif., which document this largely African descent family.This info. is readily available, in many published books & articles, but I don't expect a racist, like you, to accept reality.

[KYMAMI]

back to Mexico you go

[devulboy1]

Not a wise choice of words. Blacks & Mexicans are victims of the same kind of white racism practiced by the majority in the USA. American Indians should get back any land claims that belong to the tribe & people. But the idea of Indian reservations are similar to Bantustans of Apartheid-era South Africa & the poverty on them are considered "rural ghettos" in a way they were originally established. Mexican immigrants are coming the same way the Irish, Italians, Poles, Greeks, etc. before them. +

[boostgst]

Black and Brown unity is the key.

[HUITZILOPOCHTL]

unity to all us in the struggle,UNITY means POWER.
