Premise / Critique ·Did the Mexican American population share these views?
It's unclear. Need to have better understanding how patterns of bilingualism, rates of immigration, and variations in ethnic consciousness impacts politics to answer the question.

It’s difficult to anticipate the correct answer, because the author discusses Mexican American political activists throughout most of the passage. Let’s rely on process of elimination.
a
Their common goal ██ ███████ ██████ ████ ████ ████ ████████ ████ ███ ███████ ████████ █████████ ██ ███ █████ ███ ██████
Although the activists were less militant, the author doesn’t believe this is due to their common goal of liberal reform. In fact, the author criticizes Garcia for emphasizing consensus among the activists rather than the differences among them.
b
Their common goal ██ ███████ ██████ ███ ███ ████████ █████ █████████ ████████████
Supported by P2. The author criticizes Garcia for emphasizing the consensus among the activists rather than the differences among them: “he undermines his primary thesis by emphasizing an underlying consensus among various groups that tends to conceal the full significance of their differences.”
c
Their common goal ██ ███████ ██████ ██████ ████ █████ █ █████████ ██ █████ ██ █████ █████████ ████████████
Anti-supported by P2. The author criticizes Garcia for emphasizing the consensus among the activists rather than the differences among them.
d
They were more ██ ████ ██████ ███████ ███████ █████ ████████ ████████████ ███ █████ ████████ ████████ ████████████
There’s no evidence the author believes the activists were “evenly divided.” We have no reason to think the author believes there was a 50/50 split as opposed to 60/40 or 70/30.
e
They did not ███████ ██ █████ █████████ █████ █████████ █████ ███████ ██ █████ █████████ █████████ ██████
We don’t have evidence the author thinks the activists were unsuccessful in achieving their goals.
