Latinos say they are discriminated against by other Latinos, survey finds 0:47 (CNN) — Latinos in the United States with darker skin are experiencing discrimination from fellow Latinos and non-Latinos at nearly the same rate, a new survey says. of the Pew Research Center. The report, released Monday, is based on a March 2021 survey of a randomly selected sample of 3,375 Hispanic adults drawn from panels originally recruited using probabilistic methods. Among darker-skinned Latinos, about 41% said they were discriminated against or treated unfairly by another Latino and 42% said they had been discriminated against by non-Latinos, according to the survey. Lighter-skinned Latinos said they experienced discrimination, but not as much as those with darker skin. The researchers found that about 25% of those who participated in the survey said the discrimination came from other Latinos, while 29% said it came from non-Latinos, the report says. Although there is no general breakdown of where respondents come from, the survey shows that country of origin influences their experience with discrimination. Latinos in the US are at higher risk of Alzheimer’s 4:50 About a third of Latinos born outside the US or in Puerto Rico said they faced discrimination or unfair treatment from another Latino, shows the survey. In an earlier report, Pew researchers noted that 40% of those surveyed said discrimination based on race or skin color is about the same where they were born as it is in the United States. Ana González-Barrera, a senior fellow at the Pew Research Center, said the report highlights an aspect of discrimination faced by Latinos in the United States that has not been widely studied in the past. “There is not so much talk about the experiences of Latinos who are discriminated against from within the group,” González-Barrera said. “There isn’t a lot of research, at least not anything to point to.” Overall, Latinos said they were criticized for speaking Spanish in public (23%), called offensive names (20%), and nearly all said they sometimes or often hear their Latino friends and family make comments or jokes racially insensitive. González-Barrera said the researchers found that younger Latinos are more likely to report hearing such comments or experiencing discrimination than people 65 and older. The survey shows that half of Latinos between the ages of 18 and 29 reported hearing such racially insensitive comments directed at Latinos and non-Latinos. Some 38% of Latinos age 65 and older said they have heard other Latinos make similar comments. Those with college experience were more likely to say the same as those with less education, the researchers said. Skin color a ‘difference’ for Latinos Colorism is deeply embedded in the Spanish language, and social mobility in parts of Latin America has largely depended on a person’s skin complexion for generations, experts say. experts. “In popular culture there continues to be that belief – subconsciously or not – that if you marry someone lighter than you, you have a better chance of moving up,” María Peña, a spokesperson for Hispanic media at the Library of Congress, previously told CNN. Following the murder of George Floyd, activists across the US and senior Latino leaders said it was time for Latinos to examine and combat their own racism and colorism. Black couple sue for discrimination after appraisal of their home 3:33 “We have remained silent when our aunts have encouraged us to associate with people who have lighter skin than us in order to improve the race. We have hated ourselves for our skin color, hair texture, our curves and our accents,” the leaders of the most important organizations wrote in a letter published in The Miami Herald. Months later, an incident between a Latina and a black teenager in New York City highlighted the entrenched anti-black sentiment in the Latino community. Miya Ponsetto was seen on video attacking a 14-year-old boy who was with her father at the Arlo Hotel and accused the boy of stealing her cell phone, according to the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office. Investigators later determined that the teen did not pick up the phone from him. Ponsetto has insisted that race was not a factor in the incident. Earlier this year, she pleaded guilty to second-degree false arrest as a hate crime.
