During the second world war the Roosevelt administration, the press and Hollywood talked about racial equality and fighting prejudice. The United States was held up as a bastion of tolerance compared to the Axis. Meanwhile in the real world a series of attacks on Mexicans living in America was started by US servicemen. They became known as the Zoot Suit riots.
