Latinos that have come to this country in hope of a better life may find themselves disappointed. The lifestyle may be more comfortable but the profiling and the possibility of losing your life negates it. The hip hop culture has long been one that speaks on this in hope of empowerment and changing the system. For the Latin community however, the two have been working one in the same for a while now. The culture needs to do more to include them as they fight for what we fight for. Hip hop is not about whose oppression is greater, but a vehicle for battling and raising awareness of that oppression.
