Left Out of History (Read Woke Books)-The Real the Mexican-American War

The Mexican-American War resulted in a significant boundary change and continuing tensions between Mexico and the US. In 1845 the US made Texas a state. But the US and Mexico didn't agree on Texas's border. The countries fought in many battles over two years, and the war ended with Mexico losing more than half its territory. Discover the history that led up to this war, key people and events, and the outcomes that continue to impact these countries today.Have you ever considered what's missing from history books? In Left Out of History, explore the misunderstood and underexamined past in this engaging series. Compelling photographs and primary sources help bring previously buried history to light. Read Woke(TM) Books are created in partnership with Cicely Lewis, the Read Woke librarian. Inspired by a belief that knowledge is power, Read Woke Books seek to amplify the voices of people of the global majority (people who are of African, Arab, Asian, and Latin American descent and identify as not white), provide information about groups that have been disenfranchised, share perspectives of people who have been underrepresented or oppressed, challenge social norms and disrupt the status quo, and encourage readers to take action in their community.
