NM statehood happened solely b/c fo race relations and the ongoing feud between NM territory and Texas. It has never stopped since then.

There is an ongoing feud between Spanish decent NM and Mexican decent NM.

Tribal people (ie American Indians) (one of the highest populations of any state) have ALWAYS been treated with racial bias and it continues today. In addition there is racial bias amongst tribal peoples (Navajo v. Pueblos; Apache v. Pueblos)

African-Americans are very few in the state...Something I miss having grown up in IL where public schools were 50-50 at least.

Asians where brought to NM to build the train and where not allowed to walk on the streets after sunset. They were slaves then and are still not treated with equality...maybe those with PhD working at Los Alamos Labs or Sandia Labs.

Gang warfare in the warzone of ABQ is racially charged and motivated.
