They also fight for equality and Justice for those that have done bad things against Africans, and Mexican Americans. They have both peaceful and violent protest like the Riots of El Cajon in California. The riots where due to the murder of the UNARMED African American Alfred Olango by the police in which Alfred Olango did NOT receive justice.
