This book examines and analyzes Americanization,
De-Americanization, and racialized ethnic groups in America. It
shows that America's cultural homogeneity, which is based on
"whiteness," has important consequences for racialized ethnic
groups in America. The question, then, of who is an American
becomes overriding. Although racialized ethnic groups remain
unassimilated into the dominant culture, the recognition and
celebration of the non-dominant cultures are important for
multiculturalism. However, non-dominant cultures are tied to
cultural otherness. Cultural otherness is looked upon as
Un-Americanness. For this reason, there is a need to move beyond
multiculturalism. "Postmulticulturalism," then, would be the new
possibility.
