It’s scary being a Latino in the US today. It’s hard to believe that a significant percentage of the population hates us more than they love democracy.
But not that hard, as this is the third time they’ve tried to “cleanse” us from the country. #mexicanrepatriation #operationwetback

Feb 26, 1931: Immigration police raided La Placita next to Olvera Street. "The Placita site was chosen for its maximum psychological impact..."
Excerpt from @unmpress.bsky.social's book “Decade of Betrayal: Mexican Repatriation in the 1930s” -> www.unmpress.com/978082633974... #MexicanRepatriation
In the 1930s, the U.S. deported up to 2 million people—including citizens. The Mexican Repatriation is a forgotten chapter of history, but are we repeating it today?
