Indigenous peoples and racial minorities have lived and thrived in
Oregon for centuries. Their legacy is interwoven with the state's
history and culture even as they continue to struggle with
prejudice, environmental pressures, shrinking state revenues, the
effects of globalization, and the changing dynamics of the state
economy. Current U.S. immigration policy and the forces of
globalization have played a critical role in creating a dynamic
process named the 'browning of Oregon.' This anthology brings
together a group of noted multidisciplinary scholars, who explore
the rich and varied experiences of Oregon's native communities and
racial minorities. Anchored in a 'power relations' perspective, the
book has been organized around several key historical themes,
including: the foundation of ethnic communities; civil rights;
social justice; ethnicity and labor; and various forms of cultural
traditions. As disparate as they seem in style and topic, this
collection of essays highlight the distinctive experiences of
Oregon's people of color and communicates the broader interlocking
categories of social identity. The book is essential reading for
students, teachers, and the general public interested in
contemporary racial politics.
