reviewed Manifest Destinies: The Making of the Mexican American Race on August 12, 2018 Manifest Destinies: The Making of the Mexican American Race
This book reframes Manifest Destiny as part of American colonization--which, sadly, few people actually perceive as colonialism. In that sense, this is a crucial intervention to popular American history. My favorite aspect is Gomez moving beyond the black/white racial formation dichotomy to suggest that the first Mexican Americans fell on a spectrum the mixed Spanish racial orders with American racial orders, meaning Mexicans fell into an "off-white" status: legally white but socially non-white. Excellent book. Five stars, for sure.
