1: Ethnic Discrimination especially against Latinx children by systemically racist institutions, including but not limited to failing to return or reunite children with their biological relatives in the child welfare system and/or excessive legal enforcement in the criminal justice system and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement department.
2: Disparaging and offensive treatment of Latinx children by the systems that are supposed to be supporting and protecting them with or without malicious intent. See Jimmy Crow definition.
