Manifest Destinies: The Making of the Mexican American Race
Laura E. Gomez
Traces the origins of Mexican Americans as a racial group in the United States, paying attention to shifting meanings of race and law in nineteenth century. This title explores the paradox of Mexican American racial status as entailing the law's designation of Mexican Americans as white and their social position as non-white in American society.
