The Spanish Language in the United States - Rootedness, Racialization, and Resistance (Hardcover)

The Spanish Language in the United States addresses the rootedness of Spanish in the United States, its racialization, and Spanish speakers' resistance against racialization. This novel approach challenges the "foreigner" status of Spanish and shows that racialization victims do not take their oppression meekly. It traces the rootedness of Spanish since the 1500s, when the Spanish empire began the settlement of the new land, till today, when 39 million U.S. Latinos speak Spanish at home. Authors show how whites categorize Spanish speaking in ways that denigrate the non-standard language habits of Spanish speakers-including in schools-highlighting ways of overcoming racism.
