They didn't want Mexican nationals or Mexicans from Texas. “A hundred years isn’t that long ago. You are missing out on three generations of a decent education. This does not end up putting Mexican-Americans at a disadvantage. This is not something that was taken away, but something that was never allowed to develop.” What happened to the Mexicans is something we should never forget. They were beheaded, burned and many other things. They were treated very badly in a place where it is said to be respectful and peaceful. Everyone should know the real story of how Americans acted. They don't show or talk about this tragedy that happened because they want everyone to see that they have good people. But no, I refuse to forget everything that happened to my own people.
