Classism only polarizes Mexican society creating groups that exclude.
Mexican transcends physical, economic or education characteristics.

In history, we have cases of classism and racism in politics. That's the case of Porfirio Diaz. Diaz had indigenous roots, but through the years he started a whitening process looking forward to being more European.

What privileges exist in a classist society?
An example of privileges is getting a job over someone else because of a more "refined appearance" or because of having studied in a private school.

Whenever you have a classist attitude, you lose the opportunity of learning from others. Everyone is valuable no matter their economic situation.

Precisely the classism during Porfiriato and the bad condition of lower classes would be one of the causes that would detonate the Mexican revolution.

The Porfiriato was one of the historical periods in our country where the classism was more present. The gap between classes was really huge and the workers and peasants were treated really bad. #classism #History

In 'tiendas de raya', the peasants exchanged their coupons in exchange of food, they were called like that because as most of the workers were analphabet and signed with a line, which in Spanish can be translated as "raya". #classism #History

[Stop Classism in Mexico City @NClassism]

This is truly the best example in our history of classism in it's maximum expression. "Tiendas de raya", #classism #History

In the end, this war did not solve any of the existing problems and actually the indigenous groups are the most marginated in our country

[Stop Classism in Mexico City @NClassism]

Caste War was caused due to the Caste System of New Spain, which allowed the europeans to explode the indigenous people, specifically the mayans, who were at the lowest level of the social chain, due to this mayans sublevated, starting the war #classism #History

One of the fundamental events in our history in order to understand the classism and racism in our country is The Caste War in Yucatán (guerra de castas) which started in 1847 and ended in 1901 #classism
