Episode 32 Racism and Women in the Mexican American War

This week, Kelsie and Brooke discuss the Mexican-American War-- one often glossed over in US History courses, but one central to understanding US imperialism and the manor of US expansion. Women's role is even less frequently discussed-- and less documented. Our guest, Dr. Cony Marquez informs us about the barriers to teaching this history-- and how it often has to do with what you look like-- and gives us a Mexican scholar's perspective on the war. Kelsie also referenced a few texts, cited below. Support our work at www.patreon.com/remedialherstory Find… Video by YouTube channel.
