I know I haven’t been on here for a while, my last post was literally around January. But I feel like I need to speak out about this as a latina and as someone who was born and raised in LA. And before anything, I don’t give a fuck to see any replies or anonymous messages disagreeing with me and being racist, trump supporters, etc. You will just be blocked, I don’t give a shit to read any of it, period. This is my platform, and I will speak on whatever tf I feel like speaking on.
I feel absolutely heartbroken with everything that’s been going on with these protests and mass deportations. I cannot believe the amount of videos I’ve seen of families being attacked and separated, especially little kids that are no more than what?? 7 years old and below and crying so hard for their moms and dads, grandparents being taken away, and even fathers who are cuffed and chained still being brave and telling their sons and daughters to remain calm and that everything will be okay when they’re not even sure of that themselves. CHILDREN even being handcuffed. And this morning a father was even taken away when he was just having breakfast on the front porch of his house??
Not to mention protesters who are trying to protest peacefully getting hurt, shot and even ran over! I’m just-I can’t even think straight right now! What the actual fuck is this president’s problem with us?! Better question, What’s the point of being racist in general?! As someone who was raised to not see color, this absolutely tears me apart inside and I still cannot process all of this happening at all. We are being targeted, we are the ONLY ones being targeted like crazy and for what?! Because the people I’ve seen getting detained are NOT CRIMINALS, they are trying to make an honest living and have been working harder than anyone to have a better life for themselves and for their families, doing the jobs that most of us will not even dare to do, and just trying to have better opportunities. Does that sound like a fucking criminal to you?!
And not only that, I see that they are taking away people that have been here for 20 + years, legal or not.
Obviously this is not about catching criminals anymore, this is about being latino, this is about being brown, this is about being born the race we are, period. And I never ever thought I could hate and be absolutely disgusted by Trump more than I already have this entire time. This whole thing feels like a damn nightmare and I’ve been praying so hard for my mom and dad and all my fellow latinos to be safe and survive these ice raids. History is clearly repeating itself and my heart goes out to the families who have already had their loved ones taken away, I hope somehow a miracle happens so you all can get them back. I am sending all the love and hugs in the world to you all, I stand with you always. Please keep LA and all the hispanic/latino race in your prayers my darlings, because this is no joke, this has been going way too far for too long and I just cannot imagine having my parents or even witnessing someone being taken away when they are just trying to have a better life.
Please, we are all human beings, racism should not even exist. We may be different colors on the outside, but we all bleed the same color inside. Let’s stand with each other, not against each other. We need to do way better as the human race and come together to especially support each other during this difficult time, yes I understand there are some bad apples but that’s all around the world, not just hispanics. It’s just fucking insane, this is barely year one of Trump being president and it’s already terrifying, so let’s be more united than ever. Stop the hate, stop the racism, stop supporting this wannabe dictator.
Sending lots of hugs to all of you who have been so patient and supportive of me. I will come back very soon, love you all. Stay safe. 🖤
