- Two of the largest race discrimination cases investigated by the federal government in the last decade allege widespread abuse of hundreds of Black employees by supervisors and co-workers at warehouses in Southern California’s Inland Empire. Sadly, anti-Black bias on the job is nothing new. But as the Latino population across the U.S. and especially California continues to grow, anti-Black bias by Latinos in the workplace is drawing renewed scrutiny.
Today on "The Times" podcast, we hear workers describe their experiences.

My fellow black people we better start sticking together. This is gonna the new normal in California
Latino isn’t a color whyte skinned individuals from Latin America are raycist don’t let them gaslight gaslight there skin
🤡🙈
Yall gone be in for a rude awakening. These white folks gone turn on yall@@armandoedin1257
All across America wake up!
Its been the norm in California for decades
When you only hired one group this will be the outcome they think they owned the company.
This has been going on for Decades. I'm 48 and this has been going on longer than my exist on this earth
you must be from California
@@user-kd1jy6cy6f I agree with you I’m 57now and have always known that one day I would have to learn Spanish because of this… plus I have always wanted to learn it anyway.
I'm a security guard and for some reason at my post I noticed that the janitors who are all Mexican for some reason I get this little attitude from them like they feel like they're better than other people that work here because they have to clean up and they have to work the hardest but in America working hard doesn't mean anything some people get paid less for working the hardest it's always been like that since the beginning of time that's why it's best to work smarter.... But anyway everywhere I go and every job that I've worked I noticed that the Mexican people like the band together is a group and team up against the black people and yes I am black and I noticed these things because I've noticed them since kindergarten because I was in a spanish-speaking class for a couple weeks and I noticed that all the kids in the class would not talk to me even though they did speak Spanish and English as the second language they would not talk to me or interact with me at all and any form and the reason why is because they were taught by the family did not associate with black kids because they're looked at as bad kids as I've been told..... Sorry if I'm all over the place but the racism against blacks and Mexicans is very prevalent and people could sleep in under the rug All they want but it's still going to show up in the light.....
Thank you 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That's interesting that you said that because I worked at Foster farms in Fresno California me and my cousin had work there in the past now my cousin is mixed with white and black even though we had different last names no one knew that we were related so they were treating him different because he looks like a white person and I also noticed that all the black people had to do all the hard work like heavy lifting and they were also treated poorly talk down upon by other workers of such I would look over every time and see that my cousin was getting all the easy work such as pushing stuff onto the conveyor belt while on the other hand I had to lift everything and stack it neatly which was very hard and tiring some of the boxes of frozen chicken weighed up to about 50 lb alone I work there for one day and I quit My cousin on the other hand worked there for about 4 days and then they fired him
Yep in California they do give black people the heavy work. That is why I do not want to work on these jobs out here at all. I REFUSE to work any labor jobs, retail, warehouse, etc. I consistently see black people doing the heavy work at many jobs when I am shopping as well. I REFUSE to work anywhere in these conditions. I found out I was paid $1 less and also they were using me as a cart attendant when that wasn't my job tittle and they hired me for customer service but had me in the parking lot collecting HEAVY carts in 100 degree weather. By the end of my shift everyone was fresh and clean but I was totally exhausted and I noticed they were doing this and quit. The Mexicans I worked with were not hard workers, I was the hardest worker on every job.
Had the worse experience in my life at Foster Farms in Compton
Im so glad I found this video. Thank you for talking about this issue❤
Like was mentioned, alot of this, though not all, is due to hiring practicies by some of these companies. Many of them hire vastly more Latinos than any other group. That's how it is at my current job which is at least 98% Latino, including most of management. Funny thing about all this too is that I actually worked at Cardinal Health for a couple years, and I read about this discrimination case from a flyer they had posted on one of the boards at the job, but I never heard anything of it in the news. I got hired there a few months after the case got settled so luckily they were already suffering the penalty for it and changing things. But it's just wild all this going on in my own neighborhood and you never hear a thing about in the media.
I don't understand why we would want people immigrating here who don't like us.
ABSOLUTELY!
There not migrants there Americans
I'm voting trump just on the fact of these illegals that r really bought here to replace us blacks better get on code
My 1SG tried it when I was in the military ; bet he'll never do it again.
“Latino”. No. Americans especially North Americans have misappropriated the LATIN EUROPEAN term Latino which comes from the REAL Latino Mediterranean ancestors of ITALY. 🙄THE CULTURA LATINA, THE LATIN PEOPLE, THE LATINO (Latini) TRIBES, THE LATIN ETHNICITY ALL COME FROM ITALY! LATINO IS THE SOLE IDENTITY OF SOUTHERN EUROPEAN LATIN MEDITERRANEAN DIASPORA. Latin europe was Latinized by ROME ITALY hence how Latina italy got the name Latina. & HISPANIC (Hispania) is literally the Latin language MEANING SPAIN NOT the NATIVE AMERICANS they Colonized. Latin America got its name SOLELY and ONLY to mean the part of the Americas CONQUERED by LATIN EUROPE and that is all it will EVER MEAN. Latin ORIGIN, HISTORY& people are NON INTERCHANGEABLE. STOP THE CULTURAL THEFT OF MY PEOPLE& OUR ANCESTRY. BRAINWASHED AMERICAN/ MOSTLY NORTH AMERICAN CULTURAL APPROPRIATION & CULTURAL THEFT FOR "PROFIT AND GAIN" WILL NEVER BE LATINO. CULTURAL APPROPRIATION EXIST BECAUSE THOSE LIKE YOU BELIEVE YOU HAVE AND WILL CONTINUE TO BENEFIT FROM THE CULTURAL THEFT TOWARDS US TRUE LATIN PEOPLE AND OUR HISTORICAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS! AND US TRUE LATINS ARE & HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MULTI GENETICALLY MIXED ETHNIC PEOPLE DUE TO OUR GENETIC CONTRIBUTORS FROM OUR MIDDLE EASTERN (ASIAN), NORTHERN AFRICAN, AND ANCIENT ETHNIC BALKAN DNA. THERE ARE NO "WHITE" LATINS. JUST MORE ASSIMILATION . SOUTH CENTRAL AMERICANS AND MEXICANS ARE NATIVE AMERICANS, MESTIZOS, CASTIZOS, PARDOS, ZAMBOS, AND PURE SUB SAHARAN AFRICANS. NOT LATINS, NOT LATIN BLOOD, THEREFORE NOT LATINO. IN SOUTH CENTRAL AMERICA AND MÉXICO THE ONLY PEOPLE CALLED LATINO AND HISPANIC ARE US SOUTHERN EUROPEANS OF LATIN MEDITERRANEAN ORIGIN. OBVIOUSLY THE SAME IN LATIN EUROPE. PUSHING AND CONTRIBUTING TO BRAINWASHED NORTH AMERICAN MISAPPROPRIATION OF FOREIGN TERMS SUCH AS LATIN/LATINO AS TRENDING PROPAGANDA FOR SOCIAL STATUS TO APPEAR MORE DESIRABLE DOES NOT JUSTIFY THE CONTINUING CONTRIBUTIONS OF CULTURAL THEFT. THE TERM LATINO DERIVES FROM THE TERM LATINI, THE LATINI WHERE THE VERY FIRST LATIN TRIBE TO EXIST FROM ITALY! LATINI IS PLURAL MEANING MORE THAN ONE LATINO! AND LATINO IS SINGULAR FOR LATINI MEANING ONE LATINO. THE SAME WITH LATINA AND LATINE. ALL TERMS CREATED BY THE TRUE LATIN PEOPLE OF ITALY. THE AMERICAN MUTILATION AND CULTURAL THEFT OF LATIN EUROPEAN TERMS NEEDS TO BE EXPOSED. YOU CAN NOT BE PART OF AN ORIGIN, HISTORY AND ETHNICITY WHICH YOUR ANCESTORS FACTUALLY ARE NOT HISTORICALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR.
Was he a 92a?

Most mixed Latinx see mixing with Whites And Mediterannneans as a improvement while they see doing so with Blacks, Amerindians, And even East Asians as a downslide yeah.
Latinx is not a real word it’s a insult
Asian as downlides? That is new to me. Because a lot of latinamerican do praise asian a lot actually. Specially with Japanese Or Korean. Actually, I know some who got asian boyfriend or some asian latinos in my life. What is true tho. Is that look down on black genes or indigenous. Well, now it is more improve on that regard and gaining concience. The only I have met that do not followed the spanish castas are the Costa Rican, they view race and etnicity diferent fron us.
Whats the N-word in spanish? I've never heard of that. I know cause of people in my family that there is a lot of racism againy blacks. This comes from the Amrican propaganda. Mexico also has a big racism issue with brown and indigenous ppl. All the people on tv, whether shows, movies or novelas..99% white complexion.
Mayate from Mexico
Call immigration and laugh when the ice shows up.
ice don't come out in California
Americans cant be deported
A lot of cannot report and speak up because we fear losing our jobs.
Perhaps overall, the Hispanic - Latino community should re-connect more with their indigenous - native heritage: (Aztec, Mayan, Caribs, Mexican American Indian, Nahua, Purépucha,, Quetchuan & etc .. ) whereas, likewise the general Black - Richly Melanated populations should re-connect with their overall African Diaspora ( Assante - Twi, Bantu - Swahili/Lingala, Mandinka, Bambara, Wolof , Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba, Semetic - N. African, Sotho-Tswana & etc ...)????😊❤😊❤
How? They no nothing about that. The closer ones are the in South Americans
There is some latinamerican have black mixtures too. Like the caribean, caribean area of Colombia and Venezuela somewhat , Panamá has some of it.
Lmao you mean the mexicans latinos are racist against?
LAX had 8 mgr..all Mexican ..Our top Big boss was White..his sec under him..was Mex
I blame prison for the racist views by latinos. A lot of ex-cons come out of prison racist. Also segregation plays a role. California is very segregated. If people lived in more mixed places then a lot of this racism will stop.
Anti black racism is part of hispanic culture all across the world.
NO NO its more than prison, its via migrants into the U.S too and or just part of their overall culture
@@Abstract.Noir414 you are right. The immigrant's native countries are anti black
Blood in blood out
Latina American in general are anti indigenous and black coming from a Mexican it’s pretty known that the white look Latinos are higher class since we got conquered by the Spanish
Why do they call Americans Hispanic and latinos as if there foreigners there American, a Mexican is a person in Mexico they do not call themselves Hispanic and latinos and just becouse they speak Spanish dont mean there foreigners, your mixing two different peoples
Why y’all let them talk to you like that give some push back
This all sounds like AI. It's the LA times so probably so lol
Unfortunately we as Mexicans,have been discriminated against and racially harassed due to our skin and native appearance since colonial times! We were fed that being white (Güero) is a better race and push people to better the race by marrying white peoples (para mejorar la raza) therefore once we come to the USA,we bring our frustrations and hatred! I’m not generalizing but most people are like that!
You mean we as Chicanos, American of (Mexican ancestry)
