The signing of this treaty is an important date in American history as this signing represents the end of the Mexican American war. The end of this war granted the US lots of Mexican territory. US territory expanded greatly and gained a large population of Latinos. Latinos have and continue to shape much of American food, culture, and music. The acquisition of American territory also set the stage for future movements in regards to slavery. As slavery was banned in Mexico, once Mexican territory was added to the US, slavery also expanded to some of these states causing a rise in tension and conflict regarding the right to own slaves. The start of the civil war eventually came as a result of these conflicts and helped bring about an end to discrimination in the US.
