  • Exile and Repatriation in the Barrios: the Great Depression in La Prensa and La Opinión, 1930-1932
    Camino Real 7: 10. (2015): 93-108 Exile and Repatriation in the Barrios: The Great Depression in La Prensa and La Opinión, 1930-1932 NANCY A. AGUIRRE Abstract During the Great Depression, La Prensa and La Opinión were two of the top-selling Spanish-language newspapers in the United States. These publications, established by Porfirista exile Ignacio E. Lozano, served the Mexican immigrant community, known as el México de afuera, by reporting news from Mexico and the United States, and by encouraging charitable work during the economic crisis. More importantly, these newspapers published news and commentary related to the repatriation of approximately one million Mexicans and Mexican-Americans during the 1930s, a policy enacted by the U.S. government. This essay examines the reactions of La Prensa and La Opinión to repatriation, and the important perspective they provide on forced displacement from both sides of the U.S./Mexico border. Lozano and his staff were political exiles, banished from Mexico for criticizing the country’s revolutionary regime. Consequently, their political situation in Mexico and the fear of deportation influenced their non-combative reactions to repatriation. Nonetheless, Lozano and his colleagues considered themselves opinion leaders in the Mexican barrios, and they helped barrio residents by promoting charity work. They also maintained a sense of the optimism of the 1920s by publishing columns on sports, Hollywood, and popular Nancy Aguirre, Assistant Professor of History at The Citadel. She has published work on the exile newspaperLa Prensa and its implications on politics and gender in the U.S./Mexico borderlands. Aguirre, N. A.

  • The Independence Diary 19Th July 1929 Tara Gandhi Dear Diary, My
    17 . 6 . 2020 Zoya Subramanian The Independence Diary 19th July 1929 Tara Gandhi Dear Diary, My name is Tara. I am 15 years old. And it's scorching!! This morning I woke up, again to the sound of screaming, bangs, and protests saying “azadee!” - independence. I live in Porbandar, India and we are fighting against the British to be an independent country. So I woke up, got out of bed and went downstairs to eat. As I sat down with my parents, they told me to stop eating and listen. Then they told me straight out - I`m going to get an arranged marriage! But I said I wanted to fight for independence! After what seemed like hours of arguing (as much as I dared) we came to a solution. I got 9 months to do “whatever nonsense I wanted“ and then I had to get - ugh - married. 21st August 1929 So my grandfather is Mahatma Gandhi, the famous peace protester and he is my favourite person in the world. In my opinion, he is an inspiration to the world. I have done a few protests and even a hunger strike (but I got so many bowls of chaat to eat after that!) I sit with my Nanaji ( grandfather) a lot, just planning the next protests or maybe he'd tell me the stories about being a lawyer in Africa! Sometimes I ask my friends to join in, and they do! But some don’t, as their parents believe that we need to fight fire with fire, in a hypothetical way i.e use violence against the British.

    MAHATMA Volume 3 [1930-1934] By: D. G. Tendulkar First Edition : 1951 Printed & Published by: The Publications Division Ministry of Information and Broadcasting Government of India, Patiala House New Delhi 110 001 MAHATMA - Volume 3 (1930-1934) www.mkgandhi.org Page 2 MAHATMA - Volume 3 (1930-1934) 01. Independence Pledge ( 1930 ) INDIA'S CRY for independence has "already resounded in all parts of the world," observed Jawaharlal Nehru in closing the session of the Lahore Congress. A week later Senator Blaine moved a resolution for recognition by the United States, of the Indian independence: "Whereas the people of India are now spontaneously moving towards the adoption of self- government under the constitutional form with popular approval and seeking national independence, therefore, be it resolved that the Senate of the United States, mindful of the struggle for independence that gave birth to our republic, participates with the people with deep interest that they feel for the success of the people of India in their struggle for liberty and independence." Earl Russel, Under-secretary for India, speaking at Labour Party meeting, stated that none knew better than Indians themselves how foolish it was to talk of complete independence. He said that dominion status was not possible at the moment and would not be for a long time. Great Britain had been guiding India along the road towards democracy and now to let her go suddenly would be a calamity for India. On January 2, 1930 the Congress Working Committee at its first meeting passed a resolution fixing Sunday, January 26, for a country-wide demonstration supporting the creed of Purna Swaraj or Complete Independence.
