In 1848, after almost two years of fighting, the US annexation of former Mexican territory was signed into a treaty.Mexico lost a third of its territory, land which would later yield metals and stretch the United States from coast to coast.To find out how the war broke out, and how it ended in the deal that it did, Don spoke to Peter Guardino from Indiana University. Peter's third book, The Dead March: A History of the Mexican-American War, is a social and cultural history of this 1846-48 war.Produced by Sophie Gee. Edited by Siobhan Dale.

On this episode of the MODERN MEXICO PODCAST, host Nathaniel Parish Flannery speaks to historian Peter Guardino about the Mexican American War, a conflict that saw U.S. soldiers invade Mexico City and force Mexico to sell the U.S. a significant chunk of its northern terrain. Today, border cities such as El Paso and Juarez, Tijuana and San Diego have emerged as major population hubs, home to millions of residents and thousands of businesses that benefit from cross-border trade. But, at the outbreak of the Mexican-American War, much of the western swathe of the modern-day border zone was inhabited or visited by small groups of Spanish-speaking settlers and small groups of American traders and adventurers. Far from the population centers in central Mexico and the U.S.'s eastern seaboard, this border region was peripheral and not hugely important to economic and political dynamics in either the U.S. or Mexico. Peter describes the war as "tragic, unjust, and damaging." "Many people died. It was a war of conquest. President Polk and other expansionists wanted California and also New Mexico, [the territory that today is] Arizona, Colorado and Nevada. They were very interested in acquiring this territory. What Polk did was engineer a war to force Mexico to sell this territory," he explains. Peter talks about the research behind his new book, THE DEAD MARCH: A HISTORY OF THE MEXICAN-AMERICAN WAR.

"American Blood on American Soil" -- In this week's episode Mike, Austin, and Dr. Peter Guardino discuss the start of the Mexican-American War. With troops garrisoned in Corpus Christi, President James K. Polk sent future President Zachary Taylor across the Nueces River and into Mexican territory, where Polk would later claim that Mexican cavalry had attacked American soldiers on their own land.

In this episode, Sam and Dan take a deep dive into a fantastic listener question, “What happens in a scaling environment with the Scrum Master?”   What happens when you have one Scrum Master with many teams or many teams and multiple Scrum Masters? With the Scrum Guide not explicitly providing guidance on this topic, Dan and Sam explore the realities of focusing on multiple teams as a Scrum Master, whether or not a Scrum Master can or should handle multiple teams, and real-world examples of scenarios they have seen play out with both. They also discuss the risks and challenges that come along with multiple Scrum Masters coordinating across many teams and share their advice on increasing communication and helping your teams (and organization) understand Scrum.   Key Takeaways Can a Scrum Master handle multiple teams? With so much on your plate as a Scrum Master, it is ideal to only handle one team at a time (especially if they’re very early on in their Scrum journey; they’re going to need a lot of your attention and focus) It is possible to handle multiple teams but it is dependant on how far they are into their Scrum journey (if one of them is far along and another is newer, it is far easier to manage multiple) It doesn’t make sense to split a Scrum Master’s attention between multiple teams if they are all start-ups As a Scrum Master, you are already splitting your attention between your team and the organization (in helping them use Scrum effectively) — dividing your attention even further between teams can spread you too thin If you are acting as more of an Agile Coach with less focus on the organization, it may be possible to handle multiple teams An ideal scenario would be to have a Scrum Master master per team in the organization and have them coordinate and communicate across these teams Note: In order to be a great Scrum Master, you need to look beyond limiting your role to organizing meetings, enforcing timeboxes, and responding to the impediments people explicitly report (reference Michael James’ Scrum Master Checklist to see the full breadth of what you could be doing in your role as a Scrum Master [if you have the time and capacity]) Advice for multiple Scrum Masters coordinating across multiple teams: Have a Scrum Master Community of Practice — make sure that the Scrum Masters are meeting regularly to discuss what’s going on in their teams When a Community of Practice is successfully implemented, you can exchange new ideas which can really help the agility of the teams and the entire organization You can work together on the common challenges you are all facing and rally together to figure out solutions Your understanding of Scrum and your ability to help teams will grow exponentially A cautionary word about establishing a Community of Practice: you may not get outside ideas as easily which can develop a sense of “groupthink”  Be sure to seek outside ideas — always ask: “What are we not doing? And what can we learn from the broader community?” (Try attending conferences, events, or webinars) Get outside of your organization’s four walls whether that be through podcasts, books, or other resources — always be open to grow The risks of Scrum Masters coordinating across too many teams: The teams may struggle to understand the need for Scrum itself (the “why” behind Scrum becomes lost when Scrum Masters cannot spend enough time with a single team) which leads to dysfunctional behavior Being commanded to do things for the sake of doing them rather than “We need to do Scrum to deliver well” leads teams to become disengaged Simply finding the time to do sprint planning together and coordinate the teams Closing thoughts and key takeaways: The Scrum Master is an invaluable part of the Scrum team — do not try to short change your teams in order to save a little money (i.e. by spreading them thin in managing multiple teams) The Scrum Master will help your team be effective and stay effective By having a Scrum Master focus on one team they can better help them integrate with the larger organization If you need to have multiple teams per Scrum Master, try to have some balance (in that not all of their teams are new or old)   Mentioned in this Episode: Michael James’ Scrum Master Checklist The Scrum Guide Tampa Bay Scrum Masters Guild The Nexus Integration Team Agile Coaches’ Corner Ep. 126: “What is Agile?” Agile Coaches’ Corner Ep. 3: “Communities of Practice with Quincy Jordan” Frederick W.

The Mexican-American War was a critical event in the mid 1800's as it helped add a large swathe of what is now the Western United States. It helped fulfill the idea surrounding Manifest Destiny and the expansionism of territorial claims for the United States. It had social, economic, and political consequences for both Mexico and the United States. I had a conversation with Dr. Peter Guardino who is a professor of History at Indiana University. His work includes includes "Peasants, Politics, and the Formation of Mexico's National State: Guerrero, 1800-1857", and "The Dead March: A History of the Mexican-American War" which won the Distinguished Book Award for non-United States History from the Society for Military History and Bolton-Johnson Prize from the Conference on Latin American History. The Mexican-American War is an overlooked event in the history of the United States and had long lasting impacts throughout the 1800's

The Mexican-American War was one of the pivotal moments in 19th-century American history. It bridged the Jacksonian period and the Civil War era and was a highly controversial and politically partisan conflict, the first American war to result in significant land acquisition for the young nation. In The Dead March: A History of the Mexican-American War(Harvard University Press, 2017), Indiana University Professor of history Peter Guardino argues that in order to understand the war’s beginnings, its course, and its legacy, both Mexico and the United States need to be considered as equal halves in the conflict’s history. Guardino uses comparative social history to examine the lived experiences of soldiers and civilians, men and women, who lived and died in the deserts of northern and central Mexico in the late 1840s. Guardino offers a cautionary tale about what happens when nationalism drives international relations and the unforeseen consequences that arise from wars of conquest. The Dead March came out with Harvard University Press in 2017 and last year won book prizes from the Society for Military History, the Conference on Latin American History, and the Western History Association. Stephen Hausmann is a doctoral candidate at Temple University and Visiting Instructor of history at the University of Pittsburgh. He is currently writing his dissertation, a history of race and the environment in the Black Hills and surrounding northern plains region of South Dakota, Wyoming, and Montana.
