REFUSING TO FORGET
BETWEEN 1910 AND 1920 ETHNIC MEXICANS LIVING ON THE TEXAS-MEXICO BORDER WERE TARGETS OF STATE-SANCTIONED VIOLENCE. ALTHOUGH HISTORIANS ESTIMATE THAT SEVERAL THOUSAND MEXICAN NATIONALS AND AMERICAN CITIZENS WERE KILLED, THIS PERIOD OF VIOLENCE HAS RECEIVED LITTLE PUBLIC ATTENTION.
REFUSING TO FORGET, AN AWARD-WINNING EDUCATIONAL NON-PROFIT, HOPES THAT IN BRINGING PUBLIC AWARENESS TO THIS OFTEN FORGOTTEN PERIOD, WE CAN ALSO RAISE THE PROFILE OF A STRUGGLE FOR JUSTICE AND CIVIL RIGHTS THAT CONTINUES TO INFLUENCE SOCIAL RELATIONSHIPS TODAY.
