Mexican American mutual aid societies or Mutualistas provided

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mexican American mutual aid societies or Mutualistas primarily provided aid for the sick and disabled, recreation, and defense against discrimination. Though some mutualistas may have provided some economic aid, it was not their primary function. They also did not serve as a political alternative, artistic, intellectual, or religious outlets, nor did they help maintain Mexican citizenship within the United States.
