"Decade of Betrayal": How the U.S. Expelled Over a Half Million U.S. Citizens to Mexico in 1930s

- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- democracynow.org - President Donald Trump is slated to give his first presidential address to Congress today. Democratic lawmakers have begun giving their tickets away to immigrants as a protest against Trump’s push to increase deportations and to block residents from some Muslim-majority countries from entering the United States. Well, this is not the first time people of Mexican descent have been demonized, accused of stealing jobs, and forced to leave the country. During the Great Depression of the 1930s, more than a million people residing in the United States were deported to Mexico-about 60 percent of them were U.S. citizens of Mexican descent. We speak to the preeminent scholar on this often overlooked chapter of American history: Francisco Balderrama, professor of American history and Chicano studies at California State University, Los Angeles. He is co-author of "Decade of Betrayal: Mexican Repatriation in the 1930s."

American public schools sweep these things under the rug.
No they don’t I learned about this in high school in history class
Never during my 12 years of public school did I hear one mention of this piece of our sinister history. Nor the attack on black Wall Street until I went to college. And we know the saying- if we don't know our history, we are doomed to repeat it.
Two years after this post, I am barely learning about this too, and that’s because of college courses. What a brutal time and present time as well.
I’m a freshmen in college and I’m learning about this in college. I’m frustrated that I did not learn this in Highschool it would of been so important to me and useful to learn about my Culture and race. Also I didn’t know about the attack on Black Wall Street. Yes I agree we need to teach the and educate ourselves the history if not the cycle will repeat itself. Viva Mexico!!! I’m proud to be Mexican America 🇲🇽!
@@Chelseapimentel I think it just depends on the history teacher you learn it from. I live in California and I was taught this in sophomore year. The teacher explained that America had this history of purposefully tempting Mexicans with us citizenship if they helped during times of Great War, world war 1 and 2, and when all was done they sort of backstabbed them. The Three reasons why I believe some teachers, in high school, don’t talk about these things is because ether 1. They don’t really want to talk about America’s ugly past and want to keep Americas image somewhat clean 2. They don’t really care and are just teach the bare minimum or 3. They forgot.
i'm a freshmen in highschool and my teacher's teaching us this right now !
also proud to be mexican american :D
My Nana was 8 when she experienced this. She lost her mother 4 years before this and her father had to move to Mexico with 5 children. Along with his parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews. Even though most were born in the U.S to immigrant parents.l, they were shipped on buses & trains. My Nana talked about having a hard life in Mexico. She didn't even know Spanish. She returned to the U.S. by the age of 24. She is the strongest woman I've ever met. She lived to be 96 years old. I never knew about this until I read her obituary, she never liked to speak about the hard times she faced. I thank God for her prayers, her Faith & all of her kisses & long hugs. She was always the last one to let us go. She is missed and incredibly loved.
In Arizona Mexican-Americans along with Irish-Americans were deported around the time of WWI.
FYI-It’s not deportation when the people being kicked out their homes were already here before the Anglos arrived.
It’s ethnic cleansing.
WOWWW WHAT AN INJUSTICE TO MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS I AM ALSO NATIVE AMERICAN , IT IS SAID THAT WITH KNOWLEDGE COMES SORROW ! SO SO WRONG 😠😡🤬
In Brownsville, Texas, i learned about our Mexican America history. I learned about Corky Gonzalez and his poem "I am Joaquin," and so many injustices done to our peoples.
Mexicans don’t. Cry we ain’t black cabron
Election time democrats are so nice ? They are so Edina racists Trump 2024
@chevyvel6646 : I have a couple of fond memories of living in Brownsville, Texas with my parents and two siblings as a 3 1/2 year old boy in 1951. My father had a milk and cheese delivery truck/business at that time. Another was the day my petite mother whacked a giant tarantula in the bathroom with a broom. Hollywood made a movie about a giant atomic tarantula a few years later but they never mentioned my mother. No royalties,
I used to ride my tricycle that had a back open trunk on the sidewalk in front of our white clapboard house. I would fill the trunk with rocks and sticks to defend the neighborhood against the bad guys hiding behind a row of trees in a large open lot next to our house. Little did I know that the "bad guys" might actually be my neighbors.
Never heard of Corky Gonzalez. I'll have to look him up and read his work. Thanks for sharing. God Bless
My great grandparents were “deported” along with my grandma and siblings during this evil program in 1931. They were all legally here.
They came back?
I am a Los Angeles native. I love my Latin brothers and sisters. I could not imagine an America without them. I know these stories and it always breaks my heart. I have white privilege and have to work at growing my awareness. If you look at the L. A. Times, that's me marching for Ruben Salazar and much later, that's me marching up Van Nuys Blvd against Prop 187. The only white face in either photo.
With elections coming in November of 2024 it's important that people should take the time and research recent history of our country. This episode happened in 1929 during the Depression in the United States, and in fact around the world. More than 2 million people of Mexican ancestry were rounded up and given a one way ticket to Mexico, their "country of origin," as the government claimed. Many of those persons whose ancestors were original Californians before the United States took over the land from Mexico were deported. The government cry was "as long as they look like Mexicans."
Donald Trump has said that he will roundup people to be deported, saying illegals, but we know very well how he changes from one day to another. During the 1860's thousands of Chinese workers were brought to the U.S. to laid the railroad connecting the West Coast with the East, after completion was done, the Chinese were told to return to their home. In those days navigation took months to cross the oceans and the Chinese didn't even had the money to return to their homes. Many of them started looking for a place to stay and that is when they crossed the border into Baja California and settled in the town of Mexicali, Mexico along with the rest of Mexican settlers. Today their descendants still live there and many became businessman.
During WWII the Japanese were also victims when they were rounded to live in concentration camps in California and other parts of the country. In short I want people to educate themselves thru history. I will repeat the words of the actual President of Mexico: "If we don't our history, we will never know were are we going." I believe that, and that's why is very important to know what passed in the past in order to avoid the mistake of not acting right away. I had in the past a dear German friend of mine that told me that many people in Germany dismissed as rhetoric the speeches of Hitler, only to become a brutal reality.
Next time someone says go back to your country show them this we belong in this land more than anyone does don’t let them call you foreign in your own land
Apples to oranges. The peoples deported were Americans not Mexicans.

Not more than the black people who was here before everyone

There's a reason this American history isn't taught in most US public schools. And, according to Ron Desantis and those who agree with him, they believe that teaching this American history in public school will cause white students to feel uncomfortable. This is why Critical Race Theory is banned. At least racists aren't telling Mexican Americans to "get over it". I hope this channel continues to grow and keep uncovering America's hidden history.
It is important to teach history correctly so as events like this do not ocurr again. It is also important for writers or teachers not to point fingers creating hate because the current generations are not responsible for these events of the past. We as a nation are only responsible to insure we follow and enforce the Bill of Rights and the Constititution to protect all Americans period.
It's important to know our history and tragic mistakes. I had never learned this before. Thank you for sharing this piece of history.
There is a real good movie. It has Jennifer Lopez in it. She was probably in her early 20s when it came out but it’s about what happened during that time. The movie is called Mi Familia. I think they have it for free on on RUclips. You should watch it. It’s really good.
My grandparents were deported during this time, my grandfather worked for the Santa Fe railroad, and owned property in San Bernardino. He lost everything because he was deported by force after living in California for over 30 years. My mother was born in California, but because she was just a child, I was born in Mexico, when my mother told me this story, it bound my blood to think she and my family went through this. I teach my children on the injustices that are still present, especially now that Trump has let loose the racists whites that are anti immigrant, even though the Hispanic community has contributed to the building of this nation.
He never received his land back? My great great grandfather had the same experience but was able to get his land back in Wyoming, later sold it and moved west
I would see what could be done legally! You and your aunts/uncles are his heirs!
Lots of Mexican Americans in Texas were here before Texas belonged to the USA.
My family was here before in southeast and central Texas
Same in California
OMG!! How horrible!! This makes me very emotional as a Mexican I never knew this we were never taught about this in History books. Racism, Xenophobia, discrimination and the stealing of Mexican lands is a tragedy that has happened to Mexicans due to American culture/consciousness/ Ideology.
You mean you dint pay attention in class I learned about this in high school
@@Elyeyi05 Nope they didn't teach it plain and simple. Maybe in California and Texas since there is a bigger Mexican population and where it happened. But not in my state. How old are you? Because history books do get revised/updated to include history that had been excluded in the past they do add and take stuff out you know.
@@1988vikable I’m 40 and again it was thought you just had to pay attention
@@Elyeyi05 No your wrong. I told you they didn't teach it. Why is that so hard for you to believe?? Other people have testified it was never taught to them in school. Its not that far out to believe man. Dont be so dismissive you dont know all the school systems in the country. What are you the secretary of education??? I thought so! 🙄
@@1988vikable calm down don’t change colors on me now ,why is it so hard for you to comprehend that it was thought in school ,what are you s t u p i d? I thought so
There’s a movie with Jennifer Lopez in it when she was in her 20s so this movie is already kind of old but it’s a really good movie about what happened in the 30s to these Mexican American people. The movie is called Mi Familia.
Thanks for that tip. This is a sad story, but it should be told and retold.
Well, that explains why nobody knows about that movie if cheapened by j lo haha
@@bebaramz9914 oh no are you another old hag that is jealous of her beauty? That explains why you are so bitter. You didn’t have to go out of your way to comment on my comment because it only makes you look like a bitter old lady 🤷🏻♀️
This is an important story, that every voter in the US should hear about.
How can one be deported from the country they're a citizen of?
Dan Fabela easy, ignore the rule of law and the Constitution, don’t give the deportees due process and just deport them quickly. It’s sick that this horrible chapter of our history is not more widely known.
Dan Fabela...It was a chicken shit America at that time...America great, sometimes, some Americans A Holes
@@daWatcher There are more caucasians in prison than anyone else, followed by blacks, then hispanics
Well, its simple, my Tía Catalina,Tío José ,Tía Josefina, Tío Guillermo, Tío Mario were born in Texas but because my grandmother was assisted by other women(don't remember what they're called), they didn't bother to go to the county courthouse of their area to register the baby born, my mom was the exception you see, because after my Tía Josefina was born, my grandma gave birth to Artemio,but this baby boy died in infancy, I'm concluding something happened during pregnancy that didn't effect my grandma but the infant wasn't strong enough to resist and died, so for the next pregnancy, my grandpa hired the town doctor, Dr. Simon to assist my grandma and upon birthing my mom, Dr. Simon diligently notified the birth registry in town and when next he saw my grandpa, he gave him my mother's birth certificate, being the simple farmer he was, he never went to register his other children or to modify my mother's birth certificate, thus my mom's b.c. states the baby girl's name is "Not Named".
Bc, their parents were not citizens? Many Mexicans were here under the Brazero Program ( migrant workers) before the Great Depression.
Excellent video!!!
Wow.
This is so shameful.
I think this video has shown me more history about Latinos in the U.S. than all of my years in K-12 education in public schools where I really learned NOTHING about Latino History. Thank you for this video.
What you say, is true for me as well.
Blaming immigrants while he's the biggest crook!
My aunt's husband, my uncle who was an Amercian citizen, was deported along with his parents. She also told me travel during those times was treacherous--as many roads were unpaved or had no crash barriers. When World War II broke out and he tried enlisting in the Mexican army, he was told to return to the United States and enlist there. Stained American history reeks.
So he went back to the US?
The things they don't teach in school. I feel like we covered so much history about the American Revolution, Civil War, WWII, a little bit of Vietnam, and a few things here and there. But this was never mentioned during my 12 years of education. It took a Chicano Literature class on my last semester of my BA degree for me to learn about this! Im so angry at not only what took place but at the fact that it took me so long to learn about it. I read the book in about 1 week and did a presentation on it for my class. Im happy to know that 25 students in that class now know about it and hopefully they'll tell others.
Democracy Now, thank you so much for the work you do.
As a 40 yr old white American man I want to know why I was never taught this or ran across something about it, I mean I know why, they tried keeping it on the DL, “Down Low” instead of teaching us are history so we don’t repeat it and make the same mistakes as our ancestors!
Wow, I never knew. So much of this country was part of Mexico before there was a USA & was named Mexico for us, the Mexica/Meche/Moche ppl **Moche/Moses or Ppl of Moses** & before it was named that, All the continents of The Americas belonged to all indigenous ppls who so many forget that includes the Mexican, South American & “black” American descendants 💯 All of us with the known native Americans & Canadian indigenous were ALL ONE FAMILY, ONE PPL WHO LIVED ALL OVER OUR LANDS, TURTLE ISLAND & MOVED ANYWHERE ON IT AS THERE WAS NO BORDER. ONLY tribal territories & we all mingled with each other.
so they went to the man's workplace and took him right out of the field, (so he was not on welfare or whatever it was called then). Then even the KIDS went to jail? Thats awful.
Know your history and always be ready to defend your freedom against all enemies, foreign and domestic!
They were Mexicans and were indigenous to all these lands until they were slowly but surely vacated from their homeland
Sick society
This hits home to me, I'm not going to forget this
I wonder natives never went on air and said they want white people out. I think we should let the natives decide who stays and who leaves.
oh ya, since you're a racist and you think all red people are the same and didn't massacre each previous indian group that owned the land LOL. As is the case with literally every country on Earth. So any random indian tribe is entitled to any patch of land huh? What if that tribe never even lived in that microregion of the continent? Not to mention how many of another indian nation (out of hundreds of indian nations) did that indian group scalp and possibly genocide to momentarily claim the one they lived in? WHICH indian group are u talking about? Or are red people just red people? Do you view Japanese killing millions of Chinese as just yellow people killing each other, nothing more? And which blood-soaked microregion of the continent did that tribe occupy? And I'm sure you would much prefer that every nation on the whole continent had lived a wild, starvation, live until 22 years old type of life, including yourself? And that that's the country that should have existed instead of America? And the type of shithole that you wish would replace America now? LOL get a life. Why do u think those indian nations disappeared so fast? It's because their people were RUNNING to ditch their difficult lives and live in America (the jurisdiction, roads, and technology on which americans created their own way of life), marrying white women, and mixing with whites so fast that their genes dwindled down to about 2 percent in the Americans even that contain their genes at all (myself included), the vast majority of their nations disappearing for good.
@@bijoubijoux5185 I hope you aren't as ignorant as you were when you decided to write this piece of mindless garbage
That would have been a good one, besides, they were the first inhabitant to have lived here longer than we have.
Why? Those so-called " natives" aren't really native to this land.
The natives don't vote in the white man's system. They call them the newcomers.
All of my great uncles faught in WW2 & survived. My uncle Jake, forman for a ranch for over 20 years in NM went to prison once for smuggling the ranch hand's kids & wives, grand parents back to the ranch. He told me of the mass deportations during the 30's. Jake told me that's when all the hidden earth homes were built between natural gullies, which whould shield their foot prints well. They walked up to the road & emerged from seemingly nowhere, ready to work. Their hiddend home where nice! Jake was like Santa to their kids. He bought all their grocieries, and they could pick things from a Sears catellogue. He told me they we mostly born there, but never leave the ranch. They lead happy simple lives still to this day. That was only back in the early 1980's when Jake told me those things. He died a few years later on that same ranch, doing what he loved most, cowboying. Jake what white, but spoke fluient Spanish, and could read & write in it too, we we're just all raised that way back then & never thought twice about it.
I grew up in Southern California, and I never saw or heard any of this in public school. Thank you for posting this!
Not only were they deporting Mexicans but 1st 2nd 3rd generation Chicanos. Not only that but it's a miracle that my brothers, sisters and I were even born. During the 1970's L.A. County was sterilizing Mexican Women after they gave birth to a child.
Remember that Mexican have high Native American ancestry :0 This is why they get discriminated..
and the native americans didn't "discriminate" each other as they genocided other tribes for their land? Lol. By the way in the Dominican Republic there is still slavery. Are you embarrassed that latinos are still slaveholders in 2018?

Apparently not. The white nationalists in this thread didn't even read the fucking title.

This, despite ***right in the title*** it says that citizens were deported to Mexico. We all know where these people's heads are at.
It raises the question of what this patriotism is based TODAY. I believe that it is a theater, rather instilled and stubbornly defended. No one can really be proud of some crimes that occurred under US leadership.

"The INS website is not a good source". Too bad this website is the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) which is relating to a report done by the INS. So what is a reliable source to you? Gawker? NYTimes? BuzzFeed? WasPos?
FACT CHECK: "Hoover did not use immigration policy to "create jobs" and never "ordered the deportation of all illegal aliens." During his four-year presidency, roughly 121,000 persons were officially deported or induced to leave through threat of deportation, according to our analysis of official statistics".
Nobody will believe me as long you race baiters keep shifting the narrative to suit your interests. We have had consensus here in the U.S since the 1800's so yes I do expect some recorded form of documentation taking place in 1930's. I do not care about your stance because people are entitled to their own opinion and not fact.
Way to completely miss my point entirely. Not that it matters because you seem to have a romanticized view of everything and judging by your post history you didn't bother to read the title of the video.
+PapaMagnum
Your tone of writing shifted once I brought out the facts. I have been on this url page for hours and you are going to tell me that I have not even watched the video nor read the title? Now that is disingenuous and deceitful.
I forgot to add the source to the last fact I stated: www.factcheck.org/2010/07/hoover-truman-ike-mass-deporters/
"the INS website is not a good source, as they are extremely likely to paint a rosy picture of their own past and bury their uglier deeds." So the INS website which is really and INS report published by the USCIS, is now fake news because you have deemed them to be negative?
That is exactly the same rhetoric Trump uses against the MSM. Unless you can back up your claim? Until then, resistance is futile and you are giving yourself no leg to stand on.
Many Mexican-Americans were forced to "repatriate" to a country in which they never lived. They were 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation Americans - thus they were U.S. citizens, spoke perfect English and some were land owners. Hispanic families were forced at the end of a barrel to board busses, ships and trains. To this day, many have not been made whole by our government.
An eye opening series was published and should be read because it could have been my family or yours. It's written by a woman and she elegantly retells her family's story.

i knew quite a few mexican grandfolks who didn't speak a lick of spanish as a result of this Act. They told me their parents at the time didn't dare teach them spanish out of fears of being deported by the INS even though it didn't really matter to the INS.
@buzzydj that makes sense so many Mexican I meet always said they don't speak Spanish.
I would sue America for doing this to me and my Family.
we would sue you for going into someone else's country taking their welfare money and then still pounding the table for own race at the expense of another race's interests meanwhile you could be acting in everyone's interest.
bijou bijoux $5 dollars a day was not enough for economic stability for most Mexicans. Their labor made it possible for businessmen to get wealthy fast because of the low wages given to them. They helped several businessmen make millions, which the government taxes, I think they deserve that welfare.
@@bijoubijoux5185 you sure do talk about America as if one race defines Americans. Being an American isn’t about race but rather ideology. America is a melting pot full of different races that contribute and make America stronger as a whole. Do all contribute to this, no. That’s the reality but just because a small percentage make problems doesn’t mean that the majority doesn’t help solve them.
@bijou bijoux tell that to your filthy nasty ancestors. This land was taken from the Natives. Go read a book you racist fuck
am not Northern American, am Hispanic. Plz ask before you hate on the wrong people youz.....
They also did it again in the 50's on something they called operation wet back. It was heartbreaking to see Mexican Americans in México looking for their mothers and fathers, grandparents many of who were picked off street and never seen again.

Why do they not ask about the economic impact on agriculture and other businesses? There must have been devastating effects.

You overlooked the party shift in the 60s-80s, where Democrats and Republicans shifted ideologies.
So JfK and Franklin Roosevelt are then considered bad since your pov claims "all Democrats are bad"?
Especially Franklin Roosevelt, but urll for sure appreciate the SS income and Medicare when u turn into a raisin later on. Oh and all the welfare program too

Disgusting, and the depression was caused by the greed if upper class and stupid trade agreements. This is horrible. Never taught this in school. We have a class problem, keeping the wealth at the top, and then we blame ethnic groups as a problem.
Disappointing to see that Roosevelt who is one of my heros had at least toes of clay.

@@pinkiesue849 the reality is that no president is perfect. Each have their problems and some try to over come them. It was common back then to see many people who believed that the Caucasian race was superior to the rest.

Maybe Democracy Now can do a video on what happened to the Tejano’s in 1800’s after the civil war when Texas became a state. 1000’s of them were murdered for their land & ranches. Then paid their widows peanuts for the land. The badly beaten Slave owners had lost their slaves so they needed a new hustle.

It was 1.8 million
Real bad guys like himself. Look at him now. Karma is a bear. Look at all the charges got put on him.
😢😢😢
2:06 history is the ONE Story told that (shows and proves) America CANNOT be Made Great Again!!
4:10 it can only become great by progress to change OLD ideologies NOT regress to "the good ole days"
7:00 This is the horrible "American way" of treatment towards anyone that doesn't look like an Anglo Saxon European; like what was done to Chinese, Japanese, Mexican, etc.
14:25 shame, Shame, SHAME is in the shadows of the "Statute of Liberty" 🗽 😢
It wasn’t a Repatriation it was an expulsion.
Land owners home owners were expelled from the country for the sole reason of being of Spanish descent.
The haters can't stand rational discussion. Make America Hate Again.
Americans hate because are manipulated and brainwashed by radical hatemongers
"Hate". You sound like a hippie.
There's plenty of people 🤡 making america hate again
Only undocumented Illegals were deported..my Grandfather was in the LA area during that time and he had citizenship he or my grandmother and my dad and Aunt and uncles were Not Deported that hade proof of citizenship they were Hispano from the USA and they didn't mess with them my Grandfather was a Zoot suiter in LA during the Zoot Suit riot and here i am.💯 Hispano from the USA we were here in this land Since the 1600's

Tierras robadas siempre serán tierras robadas.los invasores llegaron en barcos.❤❤
Listen at 8:18.
I agree with Trump! It's bad
Wait a minute. Didn't this all start way back when??
Thanks Democracy Now!☺
Trump is not saying he's going to deport all Mexicans, etc. He is talking about all these migrants who have entered because of Joe Biden. The past is the past move on.
Really?
Not when your idol trump in PRESENT times wants to disrespect, and CONTINUES with his personal need to want to “generalize” immigrant men. Are any of the men in your life immigrants or children of immigrants, in case you haven’t heard, according to your idol, they are rapists or the product of rape, if you’re a family woman, do you want the hate, disrespect, and verbal abuse directed towards our FAMILIES, to continue? If Trump tiene los pantalones bien puestos, que diga específicamente quien es “THEY” cuando dice “they are not sending us their best”….you should know the rest by now.
My sister has an american husband. He is convinced that latino immigranta who cross the border don't want to be americans but, instead, they want to receive things from the government for free. I explained to him that they are really there because they are fleeing from violence, communism, or simply because of the lack of oportunities, but he doesn't listen.
I've worked around undocumented men that worked hard earned their paychecks and were deducted taxes and social security which they would never be qualified for. Just wondering cause there's a lot of them so where does all $ go to.
This makes me angry on so many levels (already mentioned in the comments). So many tragedies in this country's Anglo history.
What about Hussein Obama deportations?
Please everyone read more, fiction or non fiction there are lots of stories and information out there.
Please anyone but trump!! For president
I can't believe as a clearly hispanic or Latinos heritage person talking you instigate hate. This is not racist to have gang members and narcos out of here. It's not okay.
We here standing
Very interesting . Just to mention people who's last name have a ..." ñ Ñ ".. or . "RR rr " in their last name of mexican decent have lost it's pronounciacion .... example. Peña , Piña , Muñoz , Arriaga Ybarra , Villa .have become ARIAGA , Pina, Pena, Vila etc. . WHY ???

Las estadisticas dicen que si pasa una ves puede volver a pasar. Lo mismo le paso a los nipones en la segunda guerra ww11
And now our youth says the N word all day! Geez wtf happened to our pride 🇲🇽🇺🇲🫶🏽
This program does by no means acknowledge or tell the full and complete story on this episode of US history - not even close. Very one sided.
O yes and don’t forget the Japanese Americans ha ha ha
The current illegal immigration issue, a failing economy, and racial tensions set us up for a second mass repatriation
Time to use our 2nd amendment, to own our guns and defend ourselves
I was never told that my grand parents and their extended family had been deported. The story was that they had just immigrated back to Mexico bc of the lack of work leading to the Great Depression. My father and two other of his siblings were born in Tyler Tx in the late 1920s, but grew up in North Central Mexico, where they had originated. Idk, in the case of my family/relatives is see it as fair and/or no harm no foul, as apposed to what was done to other families. Btw, this has nothing to do with President Trump a/o the way things are today, like a few people have commented.

Reparations now !
We black Americans need to be recognized for our ancestors being enslaved. Brought here to build this country from the ground and its wealth. Let's have honest discussion about that!. And got no pay.
Maria Thomas...The South region not the whole country
your own people in Africa sold you guys....
