Both on the battle fronts, such is the case of Squad 201, as in the rear, Mexico cooperated to make possible the resounding triumph of the United Nations. True to its commitments, our Government sent thousands of peasants from all over the Republic to the neighboring country of the North, who worked in the American agricultural fields that supplied the Allied soldiers on the battle fronts.subject Borderlands Frontera Bracero War World (1939-1945) World War II Taller de Gráfica Popular (Mexico City, Mexico) (TGP) TGP Linocuts Prints Life and Experiences in the U.S./Mexico Borderlands (exhibition)contributor Mexic-Arte Museum (MAM) -

From the portfolio, 450 Years of Struggle: Tribute to the Mexican People / 450 Años De Lucha: Homenaje al Pueblo Mexicano. The terrifying territorial mutilation suffered by Mexico at the hands of the United States as a consequence of the war of 1846-1847, and of the concessions made to the invader in the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, was well added soon another. An extensive strip of territory, on the southern border of New Mexico, including the town called La Mesilla, was acquired through the Gadsden Purchase. The Americans claimed that it belonged to the State of New Mexico and that it was essential for them to build a railway. Santa Anna sold it for a paltry sum and signed the shameful treaty for its transfer on May 31, 1854.artist/creator Aguirre, Ignaciosubject Borderlands Frontera Taller de Gráfica Popular (Mexico City, Mexico) (TGP) TGP Santa Anna, Antonio López de, 1794-1876 New Mexico--La Mesilla Linocuts Prints Gadsden Purchase Life and Experiences in the U.S./Mexico Borderlands (exhibition)contributor Mexic-Arte Museum (MAM) -

From the portfolio, 450 Years of Struggle: Tribute to the Mexican People / 450 Años De Lucha: Homenaje al Pueblo Mexicano. Not without reason, the figure of Antonio López de Santa Anna—eleven times President during the first stage of independent Mexico—is considered one of the most abominable in our history. He was, in his long military and political career, a realist, a supporter of independence, a monarchist, a republican. He was the typical caudillo of those late times. He ruled according to the reaction. He protected militarism and clericalism and culminated his disastrous performance in the war with the United States of America, in which Mexico lost half of its original territory.artist/creator Mora, Franciscosubject Borderlands Frontera Taller de Gráfica Popular (Mexico City, Mexico) (TGP) TGP Mexican-American War (1846-1848) Santa Anna, Antonio López de, 1794-1876 Linocuts Prints Life and Experiences in the U.S./Mexico Borderlands (exhibition)contributor Mexic-Arte Museum (MAM) -

From the portfolio, 450 Years of Struggle: Tribute to the Mexican People / 450 Años De Lucha: Homenaje al Pueblo Mexicano. The war unleashed by the United States against Mexico in the middle of the previous century, culminated with a sale and purchase operation. Santa Anna agreed to sell a large part of the national territory to the Americans. These were used, for their conquest, weapons, and, perhaps, bribery. From that ignominious chapter in our history, only the patriots were saved who, like Generals Pedro María Anaya and Nicolás Bravo, defended the country with bizarreness, although they were defeated and betrayed.artist/creator Bracho, Ángelsubject Borderlands Frontera Nations Sales Taller de Gráfica Popular (Mexico City, Mexico) (TGP) TGP Mexican-American War (1846-1848) Linocuts Prints Life and Experiences in the U.S./Mexico Borderlands (exhibition)contributor Mexic-Arte Museum (MAM) -
Los Niños Héroes
title Los Niños Héroesdescription Linocut on paper, 11.5 in. x 8 in. Taller de Gráfica Popular, Mexico City, MX. From the portfolio, 450 Years of Struggle: Tribute to the Mexican People / 450 Años De Lucha: Homenaje al Pueblo Mexicano. Barely a quarter of a century had passed since the consummation of Independence, when Mexico was militarily attacked by the United States of America. The United States armies entered the capital of the Republic and only withdrew when, through the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, the United States annexed half of the Mexican territory to their country. Glorious incarnation of the resistance of our people were the cadets of the Military College who fought recklessly in the Castle of Chapultepec against an enemy far superior in number and weapons, and fell, on September 13,1847, bequeathing to the new generations an example of virile patriotism.artist/creator Mora, Franciscosubject Borderlands Frontera Taller de Gráfica Popular (Mexico City, Mexico) (TGP) TGP Linocuts Prints Children Heroes Mexican-American War (1846-1848) Life and Experiences in the U.S./Mexico Borderlands (exhibition)contributor Mexic-Arte Museum (MAM)
