The Neglected Minority represents a personal narrative about people of Mexican descent in the U.S. across four distinct eras: the Spanish-Mexican period, the era of Mexican independence, the early American era following the Mexican-American War, and lastly the modern period from the Civil Rights of the 1960s to the present. All of these eras serve to highlight the significant experiences and contributions of Mexicans to the great nation we all know as The United States. This book not only helps readers gain a deeper knowledge and understanding of the people of Mexican heritage living in America and their history, but how that history impacts them today, how much they have overcome, and what is left to accomplish to help these people with a unique culture and heritage continue to succeed and even thrive in the U.S.
