Hannah-Jones links Trump's Latino voter support to anti-Blackness in Latino cultures

Nikole Hannah-Jones, author of The 1619 Project, commented on Donald Trump's electoral success among Latino voters, attributing it to "anti-Blackness" within Latino cultures. Trump received 46% of the Latino vote, a significant increase from 32% in 2020. Hannah-Jones stated that many Latino voters chose Trump despite his controversial policies, suggesting that their interests do not align with those of Black Americans. She emphasized that anti-Blackness is not solely a white issue. Her remarks followed Trump's historic support among Latino voters, which some analysts attribute to economic concerns and dissatisfaction with the Biden administration's policies. Hannah-Jones' comments sparked a range of reactions on social media.
