Unmarked Graves Across the U.S. Border (News|International) Sex: male. Age and nationality: unknown. Cause of death: drowning. Place and date: U.S. southern border, October 2005. This is the stark record left behind by a Latin American migrant who now lies in an unmarked grave, like thousands of others who have died without reaching their goal.

Many Mexicans were lynched, as well as Chinese and native Americans, but because they were labeled as "white", they were in the tolls of "white" lynching.

The Mexicans stayed in the land, and many whites from the U.S. were angered and often deported them, even those who had citizenship in the U.S. Throughout the southwest, their were signs in small buisnesses and shops that said "no dogs or Mexicans". theses signs were also seen in public pools. Mexican children had to go to "Mexican Schools". Mexicans were also given caricatures, portraying them as dangerous, gross, and untrustworthy. Much of this segragation led to many conflicts with whites and Mexicans. This led on to the Zoot Suit Riots of the 40's, in which white sailors were angered at how the Mexicans had these "flashy zoot suits", so they started attacking them. The Mexicans fought back, and it turned into rioting, in which, the whites also targeted blacks, Chinese, and native Americans. Also, there was an "Operation Wetback" by the U.S. Government in the 50's, i belive, where the government used racial profiling to deport any "Mexican looking" person. They deported thousands, even those with U.S. citizenship. As of now, Mexicans, and all types of Latinos get discriminated against, even today
