jan 1, 1821 - Independence for Mexico:
Mexico was scared to do as
the Hatians did because it
would have effected them
economically and socially.
However, a priest, Father
Miguel Hidalgo, inspired
his Church goers to fight
for their liberty and
independence. That speech
that inspired the Mexican
people is called "El Grito de
Dolores" (the cry of Dolores).
It was a call for Mexicans to
fight for "Independence and
Liberty."
