Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indigenous communities throughout the world are under pressure from mainstream societies and the western world to assimilate and to abandon their Indigenous Culture. Colonialism has disrupted Indigenous ways of living for over five centuries now. Much of the Indigenous culture still lives, resonates, and continues to be resilient in many places globally. However, Indigenous culture is still susceptible to being displaced into present day modern mainstream culture. Latino people in the United States are also faced with pressure from mainstream society to be more American. This community workshop is an attempt to have an open dialogue with participants about the Indigenous Roots-Indigenismo, founded in the Latino Culture. This project is focused in a small pocket community in Humboldt County California, named Loleta. Most of the participants are from Mexico, or their parents are from Mexico. Furthermore I will examine barriers of how Latino’s have been Colonized, and the barriers to embracing our cultural identities. Essentially this community project is aimed at examining ways on how to preserve the Latino culture alive for future generations of Latinos in America. This project advocates the importance of promoting and preserving cultural identity in order to ensure diversity and inclusion in our communities.

Book excerpt: Monumental in scope and vividly detailed, Chocolate City tells the tumultuous, four-century story of race and democracy in our nation's capital. Emblematic of the ongoing tensions between America's expansive democratic promises and its enduring racial realities, Washington often has served as a national battleground for contentious issues, including slavery, segregation, civil rights, the drug war, and gentrification. But D.C. is more than just a seat of government, and authors Chris Myers Asch and George Derek Musgrove also highlight the city's rich history of local activism as Washingtonians of all races have struggled to make their voices heard in an undemocratic city where residents lack full political rights. Tracing D.C.'s massive transformations--from a sparsely inhabited plantation society into a diverse metropolis, from a center of the slave trade to the nation's first black-majority city, from "Chocolate City" to "Latte City--Asch and Musgrove offer an engaging narrative peppered with unforgettable characters, a history of deep racial division but also one of hope, resilience, and interracial cooperation.
Download or read book Inventing Latinos written by Laura E. Gómez and published by The New Press. This book was released on 2022-09-06 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named one of the Best Books of the Year by NPR An NPR Best Book of the Year, exploring the impact of Latinos’ new collective racial identity on the way Americans understand race, with a new afterword by the author Who are Latinos and where do they fit in America’s racial order? In this “timely and important examination of Latinx identity” (Ms.), Laura E. Gómez, a leading critical race scholar, argues that it is only recently that Mexican Americans, Puerto Ricans, Cubans, Dominicans, Central Americans, and others are seeing themselves (and being seen by others) under the banner of a cohesive racial identity. And the catalyst for this emergent identity, she argues, has been the ferocity of anti-Latino racism. In what Booklist calls “an incisive study of history, complex interrogation of racial construction, and sophisticated legal argument,” Gómez “packs a knockout punch” (Publishers Weekly), illuminating for readers the fascinating race-making, unmaking, and re-making processes that Latinos have undergone over time, indelibly changing the way race functions in this country. Building on the “insightful and well-researched” (Kirkus Reviews) material of the original, the paperback features a new afterword in which the author analyzes results of the 2020 Census, providing brilliant, timely insight about how Latinos have come to self-identify.

Download or read book Changing Race written by Clara E. Rodríguez and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2000-07 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An introduction to the dynamic complexity of American ethnic life and Latino identity Latinos are the fastest growing population group in the United States.Through their language and popular music Latinos are making their mark on American culture as never before. As the United States becomes Latinized, how will Latinos fit into America's divided racial landscape and how will they define their own racial and ethnic identity? Through strikingly original historical analysis, extensive personal interviews and a careful examination of census data, Clara E. Rodriguez shows that Latino identity is surprisingly fluid, situation-dependent, and constantly changing. She illustrates how the way Latinos are defining themselves, and refusing to define themselves, represents a powerful challenge to America's system of racial classification and American racism.
