How does the experience of mexican americans in the west compare to the
experience of african americans in the south in the late nineteenth century?
in what ways were their lives similar? in what ways were their lives different?

1. The experience of the Mexican Americans in the West and the experience of the African Americans in the South differed a lot. The Mexican Americans didn't really had any problems, as they were treated well, had all of the rights, owned their own property. The African Americans, on the other side, had big problems, as there was lot of discrimination against them, they still didn't had lot of rights, were attacked very often by racist organization.

2. The similarity between the lives of the Mexican Americans in the West and the African Americans in the South can mostly be seen in that that both groups were mostly engaged in agriculture. The Mexican Americans were working on large plantations, as did the African Americans, and their lives were based around it. Economically, both groups were in poor condition, with the African Americans having it slightly worse.

3. The differences were much more than the similarities in the lives of the Mexican Americans and the African Americans. The Mexican Americans were able to move freely in the country, while the African Americans weren't. The Mexican Americans were free and enjoyed all the rights, while the African Americans just got out of slavery, still didn't had most of the rights, and had very limited movement. The Mexican Americans owned their own properties, and were not discriminated against, while the African Americans were still not allowed to have their own properties in large portion of the country, and they were heavily discriminated against.
