Nap, stick to the Democrat shilling and spamming. Quit trying to agitate a race war you stupid bytch.
Yes, LULAC went the route of assimilation. This is well known. They carried out a policy of teaching migrants English in an attempt at helping them integrate into society much easier. To them, being white wasn’t so much an honor as you stupidly implied, it was a means of circumventing the discrimination american-born and undocumented laborers faced. Do I agree with that? fukk no, but in the context of the times I consider it progressive. These weren’t revolutionaries, they were trying to work within the legal framework of the country for the betterment of their people and offered healthcare, legal and educational services.
Keep in mind, this designation of white did jack shyt to ameliorate the plight of migrant workers and Mexican-Americans. In spite of a government initiative to subsidize a depleted workforce during World War Two(bracero program), the American government commenced with operation wetback and cruelly deported those same workers they welcomed in the first place.
In 1954 the Supreme Court passed judgement on Hernandez vs Texas. This case centered around Pete Hernandez, who was found guilty of murdering another man and sentenced to life imprisonment. However, it was soon revealed that he had been subject to an all-white jury, not one of his peers. Civil rights lawyers took this to the Supreme Court and per the Library of Congress:
“Despite more than 100 years of citizenship rights under the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo (1848) and post WWII integration into the local economy, Mexicans Americans in Texas endured segregation in systemic jury discrimination, which reached a climax in 1951 with the Hernandez case. Despite being 14% of Edna's population, no Mexican American had executed their citizenship rights as jury commissioners, petit jurors, or grand jurors in over 50 Texas counties with a predominant Mexican American population since 1926. The lawyers claimed that the all Anglo-Saxon jury, which indicted Hernandez, denied him his equal protection under the 14th Amendment.”
Furthermore, this is the same LULAC that fought on behalf of Mexican American veterans. In 1949, a funeral parlor in three rivers, Texas refused to hold a wake for Felix Longoria, who died in World War Two during a military operation in the Philippines. They also suggested burying him in a segregated section of the cemetery, in fear of angering the locals who had a very specific view of what constitutes as white. Things became so heated that Lyndon Johnson worked on LULACs behalf and secured a spot in Arlington national cemetery, making Felix Longoria the first Mexican American to receive such an honor.
You are offering a very myopic and revisionist history here. Stick to the bullshyt your cutouts give you and leave the racial bullshyt to the rest of these fuxktards. If you would like to know more I have no problem spotting game. Mexican history in this country is relatively obscured, which is no surprise as it has been systematically destroyed since the Spanish first touched down in mexico.
