The Spanish controlled the port of New Orleans and taxed river traffic
in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Two of my relatives were
called traitors for their relationships with the Spanish in
Louisiana.

Wrong. If you read about "Los Pobladores", the first Spanish colony in
Los Angeles, you will read that 44 Mexicans, Mulatos, Indians and
Spaniards settled the area about 1781.

I have explained many, many, many times how the Spanish colonial
system of caste and class worked. The upper class were the White
Spaniards, the second class were of any race who were Catholic, they
were called "castizos", or "purified ones".

The third class was the Mexican mestizo, who was part Indian and part
Spanish. The nickname for the mestizo was "coyote". Exactly where the
mestizo stood in Spanish colonial society depended upon whether he
lived and dressed like a Spaniard, or if he ran around naked like an
Indian.

If he lived like an Indian, he was considered an "irrational person"
and was not free to conduct his own business, own property, or move
around the country at will.

The forth class was part Spanish and part Negro, and he was called a
"mulato", or "mule".

The caste and class system is still at work. Mexicans claim to be
"Spanish" and look down on everyone who is darker-skinned than them.
The corollary to this is that they also hate anybody who is lighter-
skinned than them.

The Californios were also proud of being illiterate. It was dangerous
to be able to read and write, as they might be denounced to the
Spanish Inquisition for being seen reading a book that might be
heretical.

Meanwhile, down in Mexico, the lighter skinned Mexicans hunted down
the darker skinned Negros and Mulatos in the mountains west of Vera
Cruz and killed them.

That's why there are hardly any Negros in Mexico today...
