Chapter 4, Part 1
It seems to me, that when people refer to racism, the general though automatically goes straight to blacks versus whites. In my mind, Hispanics were not part of this equation, although, this chapter proves that thought process wrong. I think racism derives from one race dominating in one particular area, so in simpliest terms: jealousy. The Hispanic race was willing to do jobs that were originally offered to whites at a fraction of the pay, therefore, employers were more than happy to accept that budget cut. In my opinion, racism is just a passdown from generation to generation. I hope that eventually, it will die out.
