Racial Innocence: Unmasking Latino Anti-Black Bias and the Struggle for Equality by Tanya Katerí Hernández, Tanya Katerí Hernández

Extremely relevant for people to understand. When I first moved to Brazil, I was always told that there is no racism in such a beautiful and diverse country, but in actuality the history of immigration and slavery as well as treatment of indigenous peoples mirrors the US completely. So much bias. I have also seen this in Colombia and Venezuela when I lived there as well as other countries I’ve visited. This doesn’t make the places or people bad, but it does need some perspective of when we use diversity or certain ethnicities to indicate a lack of racism.
