US Racist Violence
against Immigrants
Washington, Apr 29 (Prensa Latina) The
atmosphere surrounding a reform of migratory laws, on which the US Senate has
not reached agreement, could encourage racist violence against the 12 million
undocumented immigrants in the US, local experts consider.
The recent marches and
demonstrations in support of the immigrants have served to make the people and
authorities more aware of the social and economic phenomenon, reported
Californian La Opinion, Friday.
But said they also
unfortunately have increased the anxiety of those who fear and resent
immigrants, sparking aggressive and racist legislation and even violence.
Similarly, human rights
support groups warned of the increase of clashes between Latinos and
Afro-Americans promoted by some racist groups.
According to La Opinion, the
economic and social situation of Latino and Afro American people are based on
common challenges in terms of education and opportunities.
The issue remains headlined
by local media a couple of days before the expected national protest set for May
Day under the slogan "A Day Without Immigrants".
