The Latin version of an "Uncle Tom", is a Latin American immigrant or person of Latin heritage who seeks to assert their "whiteness", whether inherited or aspirational, in order to privilege themselves above other members of the Latin immigrant community whom they deem inferior because of race or class.
This phenomenon can have many roots: historic racial & political divisions that were brought over from Latin America and which date back to the colonial era; a desire by some immigrants to "assimilate" and be thought of as "American"; long running feuds with the African-American community and other immigrant groups; or working-class resentments towards newly arrived immigrants viewed as competition in the labor market.

Get the Uncle Juan mug.A historical flag dating to revolutionary times, when it was still used as a symbol of the colonies coming together to fight the British.
Today, a symbol flown mostly by loudmouthed conservative chuds declaring their allegiance to House Slytherin.
