Original Title: TIL About 500,000 to 1,000,000 Mexicans and Mexican Americans were forcibly/“voluntarily” deported back to Mexico from the US from 1929 to 1939, after the US administration scapegoated Mexicans for the Great Depression. 40 to 60% of those were citizens of the United States, overwhelmingly children.
