While many Latinos suffer the injustices of racial profiling at the hands of law enforcement and immigration officials, differences in immigration status, racial identity, contact with the Black community, and the prevalence anti-Black sentiment pose challenges for coalition building with Blacks. This study explores the factors that lead to an avenue for allyship from the Latino community to the Black community. Using attitudes about the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, a series of hypotheses are tested to examine the structure of Latino-Black compared to white-Black coalitions. Two major findings emerge from the analysis; first, differences between whites and Latinos reveal that the effect of harboring anti-Black stereotypes are extraordinarily predictive of rejecting calls for racial social justice and combatting the scourge of police killings of unarmed Black men among whites but not among Latinos. Second, differences according to Latino racial identity and indicators of acculturation also impact support for the BLM movement in ways that both reaffirm but also challenge previous scholarship. These results suggest that while on the whole Latinos, and especially immigrants, are uninformed about BLM, once aware they exhibit a generally supportive stance toward the movement’s goals of criminal justice reform.

尽管许多拉美裔人在执法和监督方面遭受种族歧视的不公正待遇移民官员，移民身份差异，种族身份，与黑人社区的接触以及反黑人情绪的普遍存在，对与黑人建立联盟构成了挑战。这项研究探讨了导致从拉丁裔社区到黑人社区的盟友之路的因素。使用对黑人生活问题（BLM）运动的态度，检验了一系列假设，以检验拉丁裔黑人与白人黑人联盟的结构。分析得出两个主要发现；首先，白人与拉美裔之间的差异表明，窝藏反黑人的刻板印象的效果非常可预测性地拒绝了种族社会正义的呼吁，并打击了白人（而非拉丁裔）中警察杀害手无寸铁的黑人的祸害。第二，根据拉丁裔种族身份和文化适应度的不同，也以既重申又挑战先前奖学金的方式影响了对BLM运动的支持。这些结果表明，虽然总体上拉丁美洲人，尤其是移民对BLM一无所知，但一旦意识到他们对该运动的刑事司法改革目标表现出普遍的支持态度。
