Mexicans were discriminated mostly the same as blacks. You never hear about it, because they were considered "white", even though the whites discriminated against them. 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. ANYWAYS, in the early U.S., Mexicans have always been mistreated and discriminated against. The U.S. wanted their land, and they took it. 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
Mexicans immigrate into the US because they are seeking new opportunities. It is a misconception that the US has a well enough job market to immigrate. Other reasons to immigrate are financial troubles or to escape gangs and the drug crisis.
