They did not even ask them where they were born. just simply because they were of Mexican descent. they worked at the same place where others were working. they rounded them up and they put them in jail under those conditions. Their husbands looked for them. could not find them. Finally they contacted my office and we were able to locate them. That is not the purpose of the Department of Immigration. I think that when any department of the Federal Government takes it unto themselves to conduct such a roundup and then put people in jail for those days incommunicado. I think that that is a disgraceful way in which any department can proceed.
Identified stereotypes
People of Mexican descent are rounded up and jailed simply because of their ethnicity.
