This article is an excellent summary of the issues that lead up to Operation Wetback in 1954. It is very germane to todays situation with the ICE raids and the construction of the wall arousing racial anomosity.

Dietz suggest the racial character of the 1954 operation by citing: "The zeal with which local police departments offered assistance was staggering. In Azusa, California a local police chief volunteered to the INS that a local theater had a Spanish language night and offered coordination with theater management to turn up the lights during the movie, block the exits, and check everyone’s identification."

Much of the data for essay come from Operation Wetback: The Mass Deportation of Mexican Undocumented Workers by (Greenwood Press 1980) Juan Ramon Garcia. It is still available used on Amazon.

In his conclusion Dietz argues "that as a country of immigrants we have never had an immigration policy that responsibly addresses our needs for employment, our declining birthrate, and the benefits of a multi-cultural society."
