Скачать или смотреть Dallas' Little Mexico | Recovering the Stories

Once a lively neighborhood bursting with culture and family spirit, Little Mexico in Dallas tells a powerful story of resilience and struggle. Founded by Mexican immigrants fleeing the violence of the Mexican Revolution, it grew into a vibrant community filled with shops, cafes, and a strong sense of belonging by the 1930s. But life in Little Mexico wasn’t always easy—discrimination and violence were real threats, highlighted by the tragic murder of 12-year-old Santos Rodriguez by a police officer, which sparked protests and activism among the residents. Even though gentrification has changed the landscape, the spirit of Little Mexico lives on.
