hummm… most Latino’s are well over 25% native american …. maybe its us northern Europeans that need to go back to where we came from.

If I could figure a way to undo the harm Europeans did not only to this continent but to South America, Asia, and Africa, I would. Unfortunately, the tangle is so complex that there is no pushing the “reset” button. Which means we have to understand how we got to where we are today, then work to repair the harms that currently exist — especially with regard to those who were directly harmed in the past and their descendants who still suffer from that harm, and then work toward an equitable, just system for all. Not exactly a small order.

Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back.

while i understand that you mean well, spreading misinformation (or information that only sounds correct) hurts more than it helps. here’s an article that provides a bit more detail about the genetic makeup of the various components of the group referred to as “latinos” (a term so all-encompassing that it’s basically meaningless)…

i won’t mention the unneeded apostrophe. oops…
