Shownotes Transcript

In Mexican Exodus: Emigrants, Exiles, and Refugees of the Cristero War) (Oxford University Press, 2019), Julia G. Young) reframes the Cristero War as a transnational conflict, using previously unexamined archival materials from both Mexico and the United States to investigate the intersections between Mexico's Cristero War and Mexican migration to the United States during the late 1920s. She traces the formation, actions, and ideologies of the Cristero diaspora--a network of Mexicans across the United States who supported the Catholic uprising from beyond the border.
