How did the us government's actions during the great depression saddle latinos with unique hardships that other minority groups did not face?

During the Great Depression, U.S. government actions, such as the implementation of the Social Security Act and other relief programs, often excluded agricultural and domestic workers, sectors where many Latinos were employed.
