"#BadMexicans: Race, Empire, & Revolution in the Borderlands tells the dramatic story of the #magonistas, the migrant rebels who sparked the 1910 #MexicanRevolution from the United States. Led by a brilliant but ill-tempered radical named #RicardoFloresMagón, the magonistas were a motley band of journalists, miners, migrant workers, and more, who organized thousands of Mexican workers--and American dissidents--to their cause."

"The Chicano Movement here in the United States took the #Magonistas and their anti-capitalist and anti-racist ideologies as a model for organizing. The Magonistas are their grandmothers and grandfathers"

Today is the anniversary of the March 9, 1916 attack on #ColumbusNM ordered by #PanchoVilla.

I took a dip into the archives to research how #localnews reported on the raid and its aftermath at the time. This included reporting by the #DemingHeadlight (which is still around) and the Columbus Courier (which is not).

Some of it is hard to read now.

" '#BadMexicans'— that’s what the revolutionaries of 1910 were called as they fought on both sides of the US-#Mexico border against the #RobberBarons and their political allies. UCLA historian #KellyLytleHernández tells that story and talks about her book on race, empire, and revolution in the borderlands."

This is the exact spot in which the very first battle of the Mexican Revolution took place on November 18, 1910. One still can see the carefully preserved bullet holes on the walls of the House of the Serdan Brothers. Nowadays, this road is part of a corridor of traditional sweet shops. #Puebla #Mexico #History #MexicanRevolution 🇲🇽 🏛️
