Refugee Camp
Refugee Camp
The images shows parts of the refugee camp at Fort Bliss on December 2, 1914. The people in front are making tortillas. Due to the Mexican Revolution, many families fled into the United States. Because of its closeness to Mexico, El Paso was especially affected by the flow of refugees. Consequently, the Mexican Revolution had a profound affect on the population dynamics of El Paso. Many adult Chicanos presently living in the U.S. have a parent or grandfather who migrated to the U.S. during that time.
