Why are people so harsh to the Latino population?

Latinos and Latinas are a vital part of America.  Remember that America is bigger than the United States.  It encompases 2 whole hemispheres.  A lot of Latinos and Latinas come to the United States looking for a better life.  They end up taking low wage jobs and working their way up, just like everyone else.  

But there is no reason to look down on the Latino/Latina community for this fact.  There are poor people throughout the world and they should be treated with dignity and respect.  

God bless them, keep them and hold them close to her heart.

The Latino/Latina community is very diverse, ranging from Cubans and Puerto Ricans to Columbians and Brazilians and much much more.  There are dark skinned Latinos/Latinas and light skinned Latinos/Latinas and everything imaginable in between.

In some ways, the Latino/Latina community is more accepting, kind hearted and diverse than the white community.  I envy the Latino/Latina community in this respect.

Let us not forget that some Latinos and Latinas are quite wealthy and add to the economy of our nation quite a bit.  Poorer Latinos and Latinas are hard working and also add to the diversity and economy of our nation.

Reach out to the Latino/Latina community.  Support their stores, restaurants and other businesses.  God bless.
