After World War I, Mexican immigrants faced unique challenges compared to African Americans, including increased scrutiny and discrimination as they sought labor opportunities in the U.S. While both groups faced racial prejudice, Mexican immigrants were often targeted for their nationality and associated with labor competition in agriculture and industry. In contrast, African Americans were grappling with the legacy of slavery and Jim Crow laws, which enforced systemic racial segregation and discrimination.
