How about you address the actual questions that I pose.
1. How is the term "illegal alien" racist or specifically referring to Latinos in any way?
2. How is going off of statistics, obvious reasons, laws enacted, etc at determining part of the problem with our health and education system being illegal emigration racist? |

The reality is that this concept of "illegal immigrant" is linked to the eugenics movement which had widespread support not only in the U.S., but in Nazi Germany. It was coined back when racist laws tried to root out "undesirables" from U.S. society, such as the Chinese Exclusion Act, the National Origins Act and the Johnson Reed Act, all of which were strongly supported by eugenicists and promoters of the Racial Hygiene theory. The Naturalization Act of 1790 was created so that "any alien, being a free white person may be admitted to become a citizen of the United States."
Is this enough for you to stop touting this racist concept? |
