By the mid-twenty-first century, white Euro-Americans will be a
demographic minority in the United States and Latino/as will be the
largest minority (25 percent). These changes bring about important
challenges at the heart of the contemporary debates about political
transformations in the United States and around the world.
Latino/as are multiracial (Afro-latinos, Indo-latinos,
Asian-latinos, and Euro-latinos), multi-ethnic, multireligious
(Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, indigenous, and African
spiritualities), and of varied legal status (immigrants, citizens,
and illegal migrants). This collection addresses for the first time
the potential of these diverse Latino/a spiritualities, origins,
and statuses against the landscape of decolonization of the U.S.
economic and cultural empire in the twenty-first century. Some
authors explore the impact of Indo-latinos and Afro-latinos in the
United States and others discuss the conflicting interpretations
and political conflicts arising from the "Latinization" of the
United States.
