The USA is good at many things. One of them is the mass deportation of the people who's land this once was. It's big business for the US. They use the term Reptriate, which is defined:

  1. to bring or send back (a person, especially a prisoner of war, a refugee, etc.) to his or her country or landof citizenship.

The Mexican Repatriation was a mass deportation of Mexicans and Mexican-Americans from the United States between 1929 and 1936. Estimates of how many were repatriated range from 400,000 to 2,000,000. We will discuss on today's show.
