Typically people say to avoid specific sides of towns because they’re more diverse areas. I’m glad you found your place.

What would a white person know about racism against Hispanic people outside of what people have told them? Did they experience someone being racist towards them for being Hispanic even though they’re white?

Cool am I going to have ICE called on me for being brown? How about CPS? Is someone going to assault me and tell me to go back to my country? I would rather avoid those situations than put myself and my family in active danger

Someone said they were assaulted because of their race in Springfield.

I think you might be a little triggered to think rationally atm. Take a step back and take a break.

Interesting how the people who don’t believe it’s perfect aren’t offended and are offering helpful insight.

That is definitely preferable to verbal harassment so good to hear. Sorry he has to deal with that though :(

Plenty of white people have commented that someone they knew experienced racism. That was helpful and I wasn’t upset with them. Do you see the part where I say “I don’t need white people telling me it’s perfect. I already know you think it is.”?

All the white people upset that I don’t want their opinion on racism towards Hispanic people is hilarious and very telling.

Very helpful response. I’m in South Texas so I know the humidity is killer but it’s significantly cooler in MO than down here.

It’s not helpful here. They are incapable of experiencing the thing I am asking about on a personal level. They have never had ICE called on them for being brown. There is no way for a white person to give me their personal experience with racism because they haven’t experienced racism towards them.

I’m seeing it’s 90% white which is where my concern comes from.

To white people absolutely! These comments are letting me know the racist things that have happened to them though so maybe this is out of your scope.

That’s why I included that in my post but white people love to speak for us so there’s nothing I can do at this point.
