The US-Mexican War is the war Mexicans never forget and Americans never remember. An unusual trophy from the war is the prosthetic leg of General Santa Anna, now on display in Springfield, IL, home to Abe Lincoln who challenged the war's justification as a young Congressman. Twenty-five history students from San Antonio take a 2,000-mile trip on a bus to honor Lincoln's support by building a Day of the Dead altar at the foot of the State Capitol. They attended a tense meeting with reluctant curators at the Military Museum to ask for repatriation of the leg to Mexico. With humor, humility, and a few animated history lessons, these students raise questions of identity, national borders, and collective memory. See less
