Today marks 7 years since an armed white nationalist killed 6 at a Sikh Temple in WI. Two days ago, a white nationalist killed 22 in El Paso. Hours later, a gunman killed 9 in Dayton. We are under attack by white nationalist terrorists, abetted by weak gun laws and the @NRA.

The study shows lighter-skin Latinx voters are more likely to have antiblack views and the more they see images/news associating Republicans with white people and Dems with black people the *more Republican they get.* So expect them to get *more* Republican under Trump, not less.
