{"product_id":"making-the-latino-south-cecilia-m-rquez-9781469676043","title":"Making the Latino South: A History of Racial Formation","description":"In the 1940s South, it seemed that non-Black Latino people were on the road to whiteness. In fact, in many places throughout the region governed by Jim Crow, they were able to attend white schools, live in white neighborhoods, and marry white southerners. However, by the early 2000s, Latino people in the South were routinely cast as \"illegal aliens\" and targeted by some of the harshest anti-immigrant legislation in the country. This book helps explain how race evolved so dramatically for this population over the course of the second half of the twentieth century. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCecilia Marquez guides readers through time and place from Washington, DC, to the deep South, tracing how non-Black Latino people moved through the region's evolving racial landscape. In considering Latino presence in the South's schools, its workplaces, its tourist destinations, and more, Marquez tells a challenging story of race-making that defies easy narratives of progressive change and promises to reshape the broader American histories of Jim Crow, the civil rights movement, immigration, work, and culture. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cecilia M疵quez\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1469676044\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781469676043\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of North Carolina Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/12\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 284\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.75d","brand":"Cecilia M疵quez","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44119356539135,"sku":"9781469676043","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_33fb62cc-a171-4563-bddb-d92b86874885.jpg?v=1687408947","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/making-the-latino-south-cecilia-m-rquez-9781469676043","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
