yup. for Black people who happen to be Latinx, “Latinxs for Black Lives” is redundant. which is why “Latinx” as an identity is so arbitrary for us 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️ also, “Latinxs for Black Lives” assumes that there is a default Latinx, who is non-Black.
I’ve been observing this troublesome slogan of “Latinxs for Black Lives” for a few days now. And I understand the importance of a politics of solidarity, but at the cost of continuing the erasure of Black Latinxs is deeply painful. We are more than a festival.
