Thread: Mexican Repatriation

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_Repatriation

The Mexican Repatriation refers to a forced migration that took place between 1929 and 1939, when as many as one million people of Mexican descent were forced or pressured to leave the US. (The term "Repatriation," though commonly used, is inaccurate, since approximately 60% of those driven out were U.S. citizens.)

Quick history lesson just in case some of you forgot.

The Rep's of the people out there in Arizona are taking the same path but with sugar as the coat.

Oh yea and if you missed this in History class I dont blame you

The Repatriation is not widely discussed in American history textbooks;[4] in a 2006 survey of the nine most commonly used American history textbooks in the United States, four did not mention the Repatriation, and only one devoted more than half a page to the topic.[4] In total, they devoted four pages to the Repatriation, compared with eighteen pages for the Japanese American internment.[4]

Whats your point? Are you suggesting we need to do this again? I can agree with you on that. I like how you posted a wiki article that is being disputed.

Are you saying it did not happen?
