      the BIGGEST problem with black America is that they kill each other at the highest rate of any demographic and then they want to blame everyone else for their problems...change needs to start within them and better times will follow...Asians are also minorities, but they don't go around destroying each other and blaming other for their misfortunes are actually one of the most successful groups in America.

    Difference between between the Haitians and Cubans that came is that the Cubans were predominantly the upper class that had all their property nationalized aka enemies of Fidel. Some of them were even slave owners. American had beef with Fidel and communism as a whole so they supported the Cubans to an extent whereas Duvalier was a strong ally to the US and the Haitians leaving were his victims or his enemies plus they’re black

    1975…I was a teen growing up in Miami, and I’m still here. I’ve known/observed Cubans all my life. Hard workers who really stick together, build together, and get ahead together…no different from how Jews and Italians have operated in the USA. It’s the formula for success for any immigrant group in America. Most Cubans who came here in the late ‘50s/early ‘60s were educated professionals and legit business people who were well to do in Cuba - so they did have that advantage. Most of them were white, and I’ll admit, I’ve known many of them to be racist, which I was reminded of when the black guy in this video mentioned how Cuban employers will tell a black person looking for work there are no openings, then will turn around and give a Cuban a job. But again, that’s them sticking together, like other successful groups have done. For sure though, there is a major class difference between the Cubans who came over in the ‘60s and those who came over later…not just racially, but in terms of education, ways of speaking, and other factors.

    Something that helps many immigrant groups is their use of rotating credit groups. They go by various names. Caribbean people call them SuSu loans. It would be good if more Black-Americans would adopt this practice. It would be a good way to raise money for businesses and other financial needs.

      Black Americans did not treat Haitians poorly. It was other Caribbean people who had already settled in certain sections of Miami that treated Haitian poorly and jumped them. It was the same in NY as well. Haitians were the last island to settle in here in the U.S. We used to ask why did they beat of jump them. They said that Haitians were the poorest island in the Caribbean. We were children, we didn’t go get a cyclopedia to look it up. We were recruiting our friends to play street football with us if there was a male child in the household. Sandbox friends. Ones that we can call friends today. This is the 80’s. without all the remixes.

      @@stempowers Ranking is a American tradition amongst children. You come to school with a 10 piece suite on with your fathers shoes in Jr high, you were going to get ranked on. Children rank on children. In the 80’s If an American comes to school and his pants are above his ankles he’s getting the business. Do any Haitian children dress like that anymore today? NO!!! Getting jumped by black Americans for being poor was not it. You came from a culture into a new culture. Now you’ve adapted. An American culture. Immigrants will laugh at you if you have on a pair of Gordans/Jordan tennis shoes with a Novak Djokovic jump man on it.

    it may have been because of color, but it also may have been because many of the Cubans that were arriving were business owners in Cuba and were coming to America to avoid Fidel and communism and were coming here to start a new life with money in hand. Big difference. If you're from Miami and you see companies like Navarro, Sedanos, El Dorado etc. those folks came here with money and a dream. What Hattian companies were started in the 70's that are still around today because folks came to America with money and a dream? It's not always about color it usually has to do with money. Now I am in no way saying all Cubans arrived with money because that is definitely not the case. During those times many arrived broke and looking for a handout but it was a mixture of class versus just folks arriving with nothing at all. I don't agree nor disagree I just don't think it was a color thing.

      @@mixtapemania6769 i tip my hat off to all those Haitians that arrived in the US and through all the struggles with poverty, limited help and financial stress, were still able to make it enough for their next generation to be great. Tons of Haitians in the medical industry. They did not waste time to take advantage of the education system here and make something out of it. Lots of folks that were born in America, knowing the language and parents having been here for generations do not take advantage or appreciate what this country has to offer. So I am happy when others through hard work do make it. Sak Pase to all those Haitians on the up up! May your success be an inspiration to those that simply choose to waste opportunities and hopefully inspire them those to do better. Peace!

      Cubans who “pass for white” actually ARE white. I’ve lived in Miami all my life and have known many white Cubans and Cuban-Americans. I’ve also known many black Cubans, as well as Cubans of other races. Cuban is just a nationality, just like American is.

Worry about that. We will take care of our own. You speak like you’re higher than us. You’re no better than us. You’re a black man that is lost. It’s a façade to think that your country is better than mines. You have tourism yes, but the money doesn’t come in Jamaican pockets. I’ve been there multiple times. Once we get the right government, we own everything and we have more resources than your country. And this is not to every Jamaican this is to this loss Jafaking.
