Incredible interview with this professor. There are so many pieces of pivotal points in history which have been left out of US school systems; a whole different narrative.

Thank you, Amy, Juan and Prof. Hernandez. United States of Amnesia -- Gore Vidal The people least educated in American history are Americans. I believe that's one reason we're always 'caught off guard', and so easily manipulated into fear and hate. And why - as James Baldwin brilliantly put it - 'no other nation on Earth, including the U.K. has representing it, so stunning a pantheon of the relentlessly mediocre...'
It really is. And it sheds more light on the history of America in relation to Mexico. I watched a short documentary about Magón, years ago. But I'm looking forward to reading this book by Kelly Lytle Hernández.
First of all: Thank you, Kelly Hernández. I now consider your new book "Bad Mexicans" a must- read. Also personally, as a Black, 2nd generation Los Angeles native, there's been Huge gaps in my (public school) education regarding not only Black-American history but also that of my family's Mexican-American friends & neighbors throughout the 20th century. This of course, was by design. You inspire me to learn so much more. 💙🧑🎓
So what was proposed for the Japanese migrants ? I think they were mentioned in this article. And by the way they were migrants only because of the racist Asian Exclusion Acts active during this period of our history.
Obviously the book explores important events of the history of Mexico focusing specifically on how it is intertwined with U.S. Imperialistic policies during the (19th & 20th) centuries. We're a nation of Immigrants, with each group having its own unique story. Aside from the hundreds of years of Atrocities suffered by our Native Americans, the histories & experiences of (Non-white) Immigrants has been particularly Brutal & Ugly. This definitely includes the histories of Asian & Pacific Islander Americans. At THIS moment Republican led Legislatures across the U.S. are banning books & fighting to keep any discussion of: Slavery, Race, or the history of blatantly discriminatory Laws from being covered in any Public classroom.

Patrick, my mom would have said, can you read? God gave you two good feet, can you walk? The library is free and so are the books and there are librarians there to help you find whatever you want to learn. Take your 2 good feet and walk to a library and sit on a chair and read. Education is also free. All you have to do is absorb it from books. Everything I can do (from sky diving to swimming to quilting and fishing, etc) i learned from books. Everything I don't know when I come across it, I go find a book (or many) and learn about it. Anyone can do this. If you can't read, learn, and no matter how poor you are, you will have the world in your hands. Much better than sitting around blaming others.

Not saying it was the only time in history but the concept of policing began on the plantation starting off as patrollers going back to the middle 1700s, maybe 1754. And if you think about it the FBI really became famous for the Osage murders in Oklahoma. So no one is saying the border fight wasn't racist, but remember before the US expanded west their ways were already enforced in the east and South.
This is why US history needs to be taught from not only the viewpoint of the current majority but also from the viewpoint of minority population. American history is all of our histories.
Some of the masses weren't "huddled" at all, but even on bloody feet, were ready to work, for any wage possible. Naturally, the former slavers couldn't resist the cheap labor.

The legacy of American imperialism and colonialism towards Mexico was particularly acute at the beginning of the Twentieth Century and many impacts of this conflict and others continue to plague Mexico and Central America to this day.
@@jameschant2740 How many years is it going to take Central America to become something. What's the issue. Don't they run their own countries? What's the hold up?
@@RJL612 Their economies are controlled by US bankers and industrial capitalists who know how to get their way way by using large amounts of bribe money to corrupt greedy officials to do their bidding. Furthermore, the US State Department has many of the Central American countries fully intimidated against going against US objectives in the region. If they defy the US they will suffer the consequences that Cuba and Venezuela have been forced to endure. The case surrounding both cases here is extremely disturbing. When you look at Cuba they have been isolated by the US for 60 years. Unfortunately, President Obama's plan to bring them back to normalcy was completely undermined by Donald Trump. As far as Venezuela goes, the US has coveted access to their oil fields for decades and because the Venezuelans refuse that's a big problem for them. If the US wasn't so greedy maybe they would be able to purchase crude oil from them and drive down the price with a huge new supply available. The American government has been a rogue actor in this region for over 100 years. They continue to undermine the region. So to your point I say it's easier said then done.
@@jameschant2740 Cuba is free to trade with any country in the world just not the US. Venezuela has also confiscated US oil companies property and machinery for no reason whatsoever. Seems to me those are actions of greedy people suffering from historically proven poor economic policies in attempts to make up for their losses in other sectors.
This ought to be taught in schools of Mexico and USA! Excellent...I've never heard this HISTORY. How typical to omit this knowledge from Americans - North and South.
Let’s be honest. Cinco de Mayo is mostly celebrated by beverage companies. The big national holidays in Mexico are Independence Day and saint day of the Virgin of Guadalupe.
Ignacio Zaragoza was the real hero in the 5 of May war. He was born in Texas near to San Antonio Texas 1829. He was so young in the invasión war of 1847. Zaragoza beat french army in PUEBLA 1862.
Thank you for this interesting bocadito of history. If I may offer something in return, the past tense of beat is beat, not beatED. Just another one of those crazy irregular verbs in English. 😝 Espero que haya ayudadote.

THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS INFORMATION ABOUT AMERICAN HISTORY 1910 MEXICAN REVOLUTION.... THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT..... TRANSCONTINENTAL RAILROAD...... CENTRAL MEXICO.... THIS EXPLAINS A LOT........ I NEED THIS BOOK..... THANK Y'ALL....
One of the reasons are Mexico its de facto a Mestizo majority population. The term "mestizo" originally was reserved to European (mainly Spanish, or Portuguese mixed with Amerindians) today is currently more uncertain, and is applied to people who share European and Amerindian or African ancestry, whatever the proportions, attributing different meanings depending on the local culture. So there's hardly a voice for Mulattos, (European And African) I ignore if in Brazil, or Peru have a different views on the issue since they have more a Mulatto population. On the old days during the Spanish Empire there was a whole classifications of castes. Hierarchy of the Caste System in New Spain (Now Mexico) Spanish. Peninsulares (Spanish born in Spain) ... Castizos (3/4 Spanish, 1/4 Indian) Moriscos (3/4 Spanish, 1/4 black) Mestizos (1/2 Spanish, 1/2 Indian) Mulattos (1/2 Spanish, 1/2 African) Cholos (1/4 Spanish, 3/4 Indian) Chino (1/4 Indian, 2/4 Indian, 1/4 African) Indians. Now please, understand today, most people in Mexico, do not even know that, meanwhile prejudice, and racism are not such a big issue as in the US, but yet exist between certain social minority upper class circles, where skin color may be important to them.
there was no way to get a blood quantum back in those days so how would they have been precisely broken down in 1/4 , 2/4 etc it was all done by race not by culture ( big difference) the race of black people included native black indian ( black and ero spanish ) and white indian ( spanish and asian)
This ppl that work the fields and feed us all will only be appreciated by the lord my parents included, alot and of them in graves now poisoned by deadly chemicals.
The Magonistas were classic libertarian socialists, aka anarchists. Few openly refer to it in this way, but the mass of peasants who rose up in the revolution were essentially anarchist.
You know Elon Musk got rockets into space and back by focusing on what might be done, then working his butt off to achieve his goal.

Please May 5th is not a thing in Mexico. Independence Day is the top day. Sigh .. That aside, the book seems very interesting. I'm going to look for it.
You've not seen videos of the celebrations in Puebla? In Mexico it is a thing but not on the same scale as Independence Day. In the U.S., at least initially, it was more of a rallying and point of pride for the Chicano Movement. If your intent is to discount and disparage that movement, keep pushing this position.
Great historical facts and presentation! Wow, I am just blown away by the knowledge of the writer, thank you for putting the historical facts into perspective as it relates white supremacy
It's weird hearing them talk about mexican migration into the US Southwest during the Porfiriato and Mexican Revolution, when just around 50 years before the USA take that same land from Mexico(Texas "Independence"; Mexican-American War).
We need all the series of all these Bad vikings, bad Norman’s, bad ottomans, bad Romans, bad Persians, bad Abbasid, bad han, bad sasanian. The bad empire series. Would be great.
I was a high school and adult Spanish teacher. Before that I was a bilingual multicultural teacher. I taught Mexican native Spanish speakers from Mexico and bilingual Mexican American children. At Cal State Los Angeles, California University I was a Spanish major student. In order to get my bilingual teacher certificate I had to pass a test that was separate from my Spanish degree so I took a course on how to pass that test with the Chicano Studies department. After passing the bilingual teacher certificate test I continued to take classes with the Chicano Studies department. We had teachers from Mexico who only spoke Spanish and teacher who were Mexican American. I learned a lot about all the professor is talking about. Some of the books we read were Un wanted Mexican Americans during the Great Depression where they shipped Mexicans and Mexican Americans back to Mexico, Factories in the Field the story of Mexicans and other minority farm workers, North from Mexico...
It's not letting me edit. Anyway another great book we read was Carey McWilliam's North From Mexico, first published in 1949, is a classic survey of Chicano history that continues to have a major influence on studies of the Mexican-American experience today. I highly recommend it.
Why should we do anything nobody cares when it's a black person y'all only care when it's one of your own people regardless of color y'all should stand up when y'all see it happen to a black or Mexican
We, the Mexicanos, we take pride from radical anarchyst leaders like Brothers Flores Magon, even our current president declare publicly his devotion for these héroes that built our country, americans in the other hand, only praises heroes who went always under the system, and the living proof is the case of the football player erased and banned because his protest was made by kneeling during the national anthem, something so smooth and soft, but everyone condemn as it was a disrespectful action
Something that is only known in Mexico is that Mexico during the early 20th century looked to Japan the way we now look to China. Mexico had good relations with Japan and wished to further ties with them in order to break the economic encirclement of U.S. neoliberalism which had taken Cuba and Central America (specifically the Panama canal), thus Mexico looked to Japan to keep the Pacific ocean open.
Oh, oh...I think I hear some Critical Race Theory going on...but I dont seem to hear the LatinX community showing their fellowship with Afro Americans in this struggle.
Well, I don't know what's going on in USA, but... Here in Brazil "Black Lives Matter" is now a big motto to everyone (not only our afro Brazilians) against our ultra racist Federal president and his radical fans.
Please don’t use the word LatinX! We don’t refer nor recognize ourselves with that word. We actually are in Fellowship with our African American brothers and sisters. We have been through very similar struggles. United together is the only way that we can fight and kill this devil!~
The lack of knowledge about South of the border history by the majority of the population, it was a premeditated action. Long and difficult times for Mexico future.
Factually, well…historically…inaccurate. The “Policing issues” were having in America maybe tangentially has certain corollaries with Mexicans, but the specter of American policing traces back to slavery. Slavery, Not immigration…but, whatever right?
Great report Amy ……how vile is our meantime human story…really , where is it that shows “ WE ARE MADE IN THE IMAGE?” There is the matter : the ugly one and that other that rises into the realm of the more PERFECT, in which we all have to build our stair way to THE GOOD < THE TRUE

If they defy the US they will suffer the consequences that Cuba and Venezuela have been forced to endure. The case surrounding both cases here is extremely disturbing. When you look at Cuba they have been isolated by the US for 60 years. Unfortunately, President Obama's plan to bring them back to normalcy was completely undermined by Donald Trump.
As far as Venezuela goes, the US has coveted access to their oil fields for decades and because the Venezuelans refuse that's a big problem for them. If the US wasn't so greedy maybe they would be able to purchase crude oil from them and drive down the price with a huge new supply available. The American government has been a rogue actor in this region for over 100 years. They continue to undermine the region. So to your point I say it's easier said then done.
@@jameschant2740 Cuba is free to trade with any country in the world just not the US.
Venezuela has also confiscated US oil companies property and machinery for no reason whatsoever.
Seems to me those are actions of greedy people suffering from historically proven poor economic policies in attempts to make up for their losses in other sectors.
This ought to be taught in schools of Mexico and USA!
Excellent...I've never heard this HISTORY. How typical
to omit this knowledge from Americans - North and South.
@1 2 nor in the US
Wow...massacre in Texas as well. The settlers were certainly blood thirsty and greedy!
That is the concept of there beginning, there were given the ⚔️ as there blessing for a time. That time is now up. APTTMHY
How do you think they took over Texas, California, New Mexico and Nevada. The silent massacre
💌Masdive Respect for Kelly Lytle Hernandez ❣👊🤝👏🙏✌
Let’s be honest. Cinco de Mayo is mostly celebrated by beverage companies. The big national holidays in Mexico are Independence Day and saint day of the Virgin of Guadalupe.
I think the hero of the battle of Puebla was Ignacio de Zaragoza. That's why Puebla is «Puebla de Zaragoza».
Yes Sir
I will definitely order this book; thanks for sharing.
Good mornin Amy, we LUV you 💙👍🏼✌🏼💙👍🏼✌🏼
The commander of Mexican Army in Battle of Puebla was General. Ignacio Zaragoza
Born in what is now Texas
Ignacio Zaragoza was the real hero in the 5 of May war. He was born in Texas near to San Antonio Texas 1829. He was so young in the invasión war of 1847. Zaragoza beat french army in PUEBLA 1862.
Thank you for this interesting bocadito of history.
If I may offer something in return, the past tense of beat is beat, not beatED. Just another one of those crazy irregular verbs in English. 😝 Espero que haya ayudadote.
awesome interview, well done!
critical central and pivotal to so many of our histories. Muchisimas Gracias.
Thank you. I just bought the book.
Where?
Found it on Amazon ✨🙌🏽✨
Needed more such books. Why call The USA "AMÉRICA" if you are a historian?
i didn't know the story of my dtate i am glad you schooled me and my fellow americans celebrating this day know what you celebrate respect us please

Ay Caramba. Obviously this information is too dangerous for documenting in our history.
Latinx? What is that? That's foreign to us. We are Hispanic, Latin, Latino or Latina. Above all we are Americans from Alaska to Chile. Period.
Welcome to the New Speech Orwell warned us about. Unfortunately some people took it as a guide book to control.
Hispanic?
@@desertdetroiter428 American. From America. 35 independent American countries.
@@marceloorellana5726 personally, I prefer Latino. Even LatinX is better than that Hispanic nonsense. I hate that word.
Lot's of information here.
That means… lots more to look up & read!
Thank you, Ms. Hernandez!
Interesting interview. Thanks for your work, professor.

What a nice interview thank you 🙏 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🫵🏻
exstraordinary, intelligent
thank you very very much!
greetings from italy
Every American should learn this fascinating history. Thank you, Professor Hernández; you're fabulous and make me proud to be Puerto Rican.
Thanks for your reporting. This is history that kids in American public schools are never going to get in school...
Policing even way back then attracted the bad seeds! Blood thirsty men
This is a great interview, wish I had money to buy 1st edition. I'll have to get my library to get it.
The Hero of the Battle of Puebla was Ignacio Zaragoza. A Texan.
One of the reasons are Mexico its de facto a Mestizo majority population. The term "mestizo" originally was reserved to European (mainly Spanish, or Portuguese mixed with Amerindians) today is currently more uncertain, and is applied to people who share European and Amerindian or African ancestry, whatever the proportions, attributing different meanings depending on the local culture. So there's hardly a voice for Mulattos, (European And African) I ignore if in Brazil, or Peru have a different views on the issue since they have more a Mulatto population. On the old days during the Spanish Empire there was a whole classifications of castes.
Hierarchy of the Caste System in New Spain (Now Mexico)
Spanish. Peninsulares (Spanish born in Spain) ...
Castizos (3/4 Spanish, 1/4 Indian)
Moriscos (3/4 Spanish, 1/4 black)
Mestizos (1/2 Spanish, 1/2 Indian)
Mulattos (1/2 Spanish, 1/2 African)
Cholos (1/4 Spanish, 3/4 Indian)
Chino (1/4 Indian, 2/4 Indian, 1/4 African)
Indians.
Now please, understand today, most people in Mexico, do not even know that, meanwhile prejudice, and racism are not such a big issue as in the US, but yet exist between certain social minority upper class circles, where skin color may be important to them.
there was no way to get a blood quantum back in those days so how would they have been precisely broken down in 1/4 , 2/4 etc it was all done by race not by culture ( big difference) the race of black people included native black indian ( black and ero spanish ) and white indian ( spanish and asian)
@@dejonc6233 people were smart back then . They kept record's on ink and paper .
Get your understanding here, folk! Then you will also understand the right's push to keep this from being taught.
Her use of “Latinx” is so annoying. 🤢
Great interview. I almost skipped it but am glad I did not..
This ppl that work the fields and feed us all will only be appreciated by the lord my parents included, alot and of them in graves now poisoned by deadly chemicals.
Needs to be on AUDIBLE
Thank you for sharing our story. I had to fight to learn my history as Nahuatl/ Mexican
The Magonistas were classic libertarian socialists, aka anarchists. Few openly refer to it in this way, but the mass of peasants who rose up in the revolution were essentially anarchist.
You know Elon Musk got rockets into space and back by focusing on what might be done, then working his butt off to achieve his goal. He didn't get rich sitting around whining about what should be handed to him by the descendents of ppl who once were in a position to do things that their descendents later deemed to be wrong.
As a Native American and Boricua and Black person, hearing the browning of America rubs me the wrong way a bit.
Explicate
@@deejay5102 why? Outside of the Obvious, it is my ruffling no need to share it here in personal detail-I dont require that much attention; I just wanted to make mention. If self reflection is what you meant, it's not what you wrote
It's nice to know I wasn't the only person to catch that! I had to click on the "Find in page" and enter "browning" to find your comment because I was flabbergasted that she couldn't get brown from black, since before America was America!
@@anomalous8652 making it hard to want to keep listening. I've not finished this since I heard that. It's like reading Budge on Egyptian knowledge- I know he's racist and gonna say some shit but I cant let that keep me from learning the language . I'm working on it
Exactly…like the Americas weren’t already BROWN!!
Please May 5th is not a thing in Mexico. Independence Day is the top day. Sigh ..
That aside, the book seems very interesting. I'm going to look for it.
I get it, but after seeing this interview... it "should be a "thing" in Mexico, and here especially! 👌🏾
You've not seen videos of the celebrations in Puebla? In Mexico it is a thing but not on the same scale as Independence Day. In the U.S., at least initially, it was more of a rallying and point of pride for the Chicano Movement. If your intent is to discount and disparage that movement, keep pushing this position.
Fascinating coverage of history.
😍 🇲🇽
Wow very interesting!!! This was omitted in Texas history classes !!! Thank you for bringing this into light….
Great historical facts and presentation!
Wow, I am just blown away by the knowledge of the writer, thank you for putting the historical facts into perspective as it relates
white supremacy
It's weird hearing them talk about mexican migration into the US Southwest during the Porfiriato and Mexican Revolution, when just around 50 years before the USA take that same land from Mexico(Texas "Independence"; Mexican-American War).
What the hell is "LatinX"?
🤣🤣
Other than that.... great segment
❤❤
We prefer Latino or Hispanic, thank you, Latinex implies LGBTQ
THANK YOU
We need all the series of all these
Bad vikings, bad Norman’s, bad ottomans, bad Romans, bad Persians, bad Abbasid, bad han, bad sasanian.
The bad empire series. Would be great.
I'm sharing this on Facebook. I have my own political groups and other groups I post and comment on.
Muy bien dicho, mijalita lindisima.
True news! is it ok to repost and redirect this channel?
i love your show ,your honest and truthful 💯💯💯!!
Finally, an enlightment of The Alamo nonsense!
Yes you are right my friend
Thanks interesting and informative.
Excellent interview.
I was a high school and adult Spanish teacher. Before that I was a bilingual multicultural teacher. I taught Mexican native Spanish speakers from Mexico and bilingual Mexican American children. At Cal State Los Angeles, California University I was a Spanish major student. In order to get my bilingual teacher certificate I had to pass a test that was separate from my Spanish degree so I took a course on how to pass that test with the Chicano Studies department. After passing the bilingual teacher certificate test I continued to take classes with the Chicano Studies department. We had teachers from Mexico who only spoke Spanish and teacher who were Mexican American. I learned a lot about all the professor is talking about. Some of the books we read were Un wanted Mexican Americans during the Great Depression where they shipped Mexicans and Mexican Americans back to Mexico, Factories in the Field the story of Mexicans and other minority farm workers, North from Mexico...
It's not letting me edit.
Anyway another great book we read was Carey McWilliam's North From Mexico, first published in 1949, is a classic survey of Chicano history that continues to have a major influence on studies of the Mexican-American experience today.
I highly recommend it.
Hello Amy ✌️
Cannot let another 2 years of this go on its time for the American ppl. to drag every corrupt politician out of the officee
You lost me. Another 2 years of what?
Why should we do anything nobody cares when it's a black person y'all only care when it's one of your own people regardless of color y'all should stand up when y'all see it happen to a black or Mexican
and this is why we donate to democracy now.
We, the Mexicanos, we take pride from radical anarchyst leaders like Brothers Flores Magon, even our current president declare publicly his devotion for these héroes that built our country, americans in the other hand, only praises heroes who went always under the system, and the living proof is the case of the football player erased and banned because his protest was made by kneeling during the national anthem, something so smooth and soft, but everyone condemn as it was a disrespectful action
Congratulations hermana!!
I wish they would have asked her about the Mexican Land Grants and how carpetbaggers took their lands
Very Interesting Texas still has not changed 'VIIVA' the memory of Pancho Villa and the rest of his crew.
Something that is only known in Mexico is that Mexico during the early 20th century looked to Japan the way we now look to China. Mexico had good relations with Japan and wished to further ties with them in order to break the economic encirclement of U.S. neoliberalism which had taken Cuba and Central America (specifically the Panama canal), thus Mexico looked to Japan to keep the Pacific ocean open.
How is that only known in Mexico if you know it, troll?
@@greeneggz_n_ham Because I live in Mexico and this part of Mexican history is NEVER shown in the U.S. not even at University level.
Latinx history is American history
Mexican not Latin x
Wonderful and inspiring!
Just keep them on the their side of the border. TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP.
Oh, oh...I think I hear some Critical Race Theory going on...but I dont seem to hear the LatinX community showing their fellowship with Afro Americans in this struggle.
LatinX?
Well, I don't know what's going on in USA, but...
Here in Brazil "Black Lives Matter" is now a big motto to everyone (not only our afro Brazilians) against our ultra racist Federal president and his radical fans.
Maybe because you guys reject our efforts. Y'all aren't the easiest to work with
@@Tlahuiltezcatl look who's talking.
Please don’t use the word LatinX! We don’t refer nor recognize ourselves with that word.
We actually are in Fellowship with our African American brothers and sisters. We have been through very similar struggles. United together is the only way that we can fight and kill this devil!~
The lack of knowledge about South of the border history by the majority of the population, it was a premeditated action.
Long and difficult times for Mexico future.
Will this be classified CRT too? 😏
Factually, well…historically…inaccurate. The “Policing issues” were having in America maybe tangentially has certain corollaries with Mexicans, but the specter of American policing traces back to slavery. Slavery, Not immigration…but, whatever right?
Great report Amy ……how vile is our meantime human story…really , where is it that shows “ WE ARE MADE IN THE IMAGE?”
There is the matter : the ugly one and that other that rises into the realm of the more PERFECT, in which we all have to build our stair way to THE GOOD < THE TRUE
We're talking high-level profiling here. Top notch. Makes me think if I want to stay on Google this long...
For me, every state with a Spanish name is valid Mexican territory/
