Racialization and Resistance
Redaktion: Cobas, José A.; Chávez, Maria; Delgado, Daniel J.; Feagin, Joe R.

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This volume explores an array of racialization's manifestations, including profiling, political disenfranchisement, whitewashed reinterpretations of Latino culture, and depictions of "good Latinos" as racially subservient. But subservience has never marked the Latino community. This book includes pointed discussions of Latino resistance to racism.
