So much for diversity is strength! Armenians brawl with blacks and Hispanics in California High School. Why doesn't this ethnic tension ever make it to national news? I know the answer. It doesn't fit the Leftwingers American melting pot meme! https://t.co/fZppNVTq4o pic.twitter.com/bMuPLtMsgA

This is in Glendale, which is up to 40 percent Armenian. Armenian-Latino violence is an old story in California.

In a review of Jared Taylor's book White Identity, Steve Sailer wrote

Since many of his examples are drawn from my native Los Angeles, I am able to confirm their validity. For example, Taylor writes:

"In March 2005, there was a riot involving 200 to 400 Armenian and Hispanic students at Grant High School in Los Angeles. … The school's dean, Daniel Gruenberg, explained that there had been similar eth­nic battles at least once a year for more than a decade."

Grant H.S. is in a fairly nice part of the San Fernando Valley, just north of tony Sherman Oaks, home to numerous character actors and screenwriters. You've seen dozens of TV shows filmed on Grant's campus. I've shot hoops at the high school's gym on and off since the 1970s.

Is Taylor overstating how long this history of mass violence between Armenians and Mexicans has gone on at Grant?

No—he's understating it. A 2000 article in the L.A. Times reported:

"John Salapa's ninth-graders have been at Grant High for only two months, but they have already learned a few things. … And they know what October means: fights between Armenian Americans and Latinos …'It's a tradition,' one said. 'That's why they call it the October riots. They probably schedule it.'"[Program Seeks to Reduce Latino-Armenian Tensions at School, By Hilary E. MacGregor, October 22, 2000]

Why? The LA Times' MacGregor continued:

"For as long as most people there can remember, tensions between Armenians and Latinos at Grant have flared in late October. The 3,300-member student body, representing 32 cultures, is one of the most diverse in the San Fernando Valley. … One district official speculated that tension between the Latino and Armenian students may have originated from disputes over relief efforts in the mid-1980s after earthquakes in Mexico and Armenia. At the time, students from each ethnic group claimed that the other received more empathy and relief …"

But that mid-1980s dispute had to have been an effect rather than a cause of racial hatred between Armenians and Mexicans, because I can recall the two groups already rioting at Grant in the mid-1970s, when I was attending Notre Dame H.S. two miles away.
