Abstract	At first glance, the Latino male condition may seem impervious to notions of blackness. Critical scrutiny of My Brother's Keeper and the popular documentary "Gang Wars: Oakland" reveals otherwise. This theoretical article unveils how blackness is infused in the interpretation of Latino males via education policy and, in turn, how Latino males internalize this phenomenon in the construction of their identity, creating a cyclical process. Understanding this phenomenon aims to repair the broken lens that frames blackness as badness and, by extension, distorts the Latino male condition. (As Provided).
