In this episode, Marcelo takes the lead and shares the heartbreaking story of the.US's Mexican Repatriation policies . Amid the Great Depression, lawmakers desperate to assign blame enacted harsh, exclusionary policies. Between the 1929 and 1939, somewhere between 300,000 and 1 million people—up to 60% of whom were U.S. citizens or legal residents—were forcibly expelled, many of them children.
