Leading up to The Bath Riots - 1915-1917

Encaminando a los disturbios de los baños

Hacia 1915-1917. Los ciudadanos mexicanos que cruzaban a El Paso desde Juárez fueron sometidos a inspecciones inhumanas a manos de las aduanas de los Estados Unidos. Los Bath Riots (motines de los baños), del 28 al 30 de enero, dirigidos por Carmelita Torres, de 17 años, protestaron tales acciones. La gasolina, el DDT y el cianuro se utilizaron para "limpiar" una raza y no la enfermedad en si. La libertad está en la mente y no en las manos de los políticos que permitieron tales acciones.
