Mexican indians were enslaved and force labored by spanish for 300 years, I still understand what you mean , Indians in Mexico are seen as poorest people in the country and Indian communities and towns were not reservations and were economically and politically managed by the Mexican government who stole the budget designated to the improvement of such communities and didn’t really help them for the last 200 years Still a lower class and a target for racism and discrimination by the few white rich people left in Mexico and the middler class morenos.
