Talk:Colonia Juárez
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Sources?
I would dearly love to see the sources for these claims:
"The Mexican Revolution resulted in the exodus of many colonists from the region; some left permanently while others returned after a few years. However, this exodus was no different from the general exodus from the country of middle-class Mexicans who could afford to leave the tumult of the area. Many families of all backgrounds sent women and children to the United States or Europe during the Revolution; others left completely. Though it is true that the Mormon colonies in Mexico were less populated after this exodus, claims of "ethnic cleansing of the gringos" are not supported by the basic historical facts. Indeed, many of the colonists actively supported the Revolution and were befriended by Pancho Villa and other revolutionaries." AllenHansen (talk) 16:38, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Disambig
It seems Colonia Juárez and Juárez both sometimes are called Ciudad Juárez. Would someone familiar with these places please disambiguate them? --Una Smith (talk) 19:05, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
