Blacks in CA don't like Latinos and the influx of Latinos into S. CA has been huge.

I think its more that the Latino gangs keep killing off black people. But if you think its just black racism, you're entitled to your opinion.

Anti-black violence conducted by Latino gangs in Los Angeles has been ongoing for more than a decade. A 1995 Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) report about Latino gang activity in the Normandale Park neighborhood declared, "This gang has been involved in an ongoing program to eradicate Black citizens from the gang neighborhood." A 1996 LAPD report on gangs in east Los Angeles stated, "Local gangs will attack any Black person that comes into the city."
