augustreed: The Mexican Repatriation occurred during the 1930’s as a result of depression-related unemployed. This little known event ranks in magnitude with the Japanese-American Internment and Native American Genocide. Many forced to leave were, in fact, American citizens—some by naturalization and some by birth. Photography by Dan MacMedan as part of a 2006 USA TODAY article on repatriation and the then current government’s obligation to formally acknowledge it. It features Mexican children in Montana before deportation.
