Treatment of People of Color

1.) How did Mexicans earn a living in the late 1800's & where did they do this work? 
  • Mexicans would work in the railroads, and were also vital to the development of mining and agriculture. They would do this work in the southwestern part of the U.S.
2.) Describe African-American life in the 1900's(Where did they move to, what was their experience, etc)?
  • The life of the African-American life was difficult, because there would always be racial discrimination, both in the north and south. They were practecly forced into segregated neighborhoods, and were always discriminated in there work place as well.
