Tony Wheeler · Answer 1

They were accepted as equals by other Americans due to everyone's struggling situation.

Explanation:

This is the statement that is not true about Mexican Americans in the United States throughout the Great Depression. During the Great Depression, many Americans lost their jobs and were faced with very high levels of poverty. This triggered a sense of competition and rejection of others who were seen as "taking jobs." An example of these were Mexican Americans, who suffered racism and rejection, as well as high levels of poverty and low education during these years.
