Many of them had their land taken illegally after the US-Mexican War from whites and were discriminated based on their ethnicity tho their families lived in the territories for centuries. Some weren’t even allowed to vote #Historyhttps://twitter.com/ReluctantUser2/status/1101103924826832898 …

More victims of the post-mortality draft by grievance mongers like you. Show me one contemporaneous source where Union troops in New Mexico are referred to as "Hispanic-Americans."
