Are the Mexican people still dealing with the aftereffects of the conquest?

Question

or is it so long ago that it's relevance has no connection to today?

Answer 1

They most certainly are. I've not only witnessed it, but taken part in the whole process. The guerilla group of Eagle Knights I was part of, armed with obsidian-edged swords, would ambush Spanish military parties on a regular basis and take any prisoners to be ritually sacrificed at the nearest temple complex. Hope this helped.

Answer 2

I'm sure they're all fine....unless...they can find a way to strongarm restitution from it.

Answer 3

Yes, they are. The Indigenous people are still dealing with oppression and discrimination, for one thing; the Spanish colonizers destroyed a lot of their culture and appropriated their wealth. Sound familiar?
