“The cultural, social and political impact that Mexican Americans have had on the development of Phoenix is the subject of a new exhibit at the Phoenix Museum of History.

Photographs, oral histories and artifacts representing the Hispanic community across the decades are just a part of The Mexican American Mirror/ El espejo México Americano exhibit opening Friday.

“You can’t talk about Phoenix without the huge part that was the Mexican community,” said Phoenix native Frank Barrios, whose family roots in the city go to the 1890s. “The Mexican community was a major part of it, even through they didn’t have a political voice till may years later.” “
