As I was researching Hispanic/Latinos/Mexican-Americans it truly shocked me how I didn't know a lot to begin with. It was at first difficult to research about these people because I wasn't sure what I could search and find. Although, I ran into a few different organizations that helped me understand where to start. They were for civil rights, better education and many other things; I came to realization my entire group was really unsure what we could research. I was shocked that the most obvious thought didn't hit me until later, it was the language barriers that America had put up. These people struggled a lot and I noticed they had similar sufferings as blacks but not as bad to violence. I know my group and even myself have truly no clue how to use the correct terms between the divided groups (Hispanic/Latinos/Mexican-Americans). The articles I've mostly read were the organization movements and I wish I had more time to research a little more so I could figure out many possibilities.
My group and I discussed the different types of categories that would help us further understand where to go next. Few of the subtopics we decided upon would be language, civil rights and education. These topics would be really important because we will be able to understand the type of stereotypes and the type of racism that they've faced.
