Latino and Muslim in America

Race, Religion, and the Making of a New Minority

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Latino and Muslim in America examines how so called "minority groups" are made, fragmented, and struggle for recognition in the U.S.A. Harold Morales follows the lives of several Latino Muslim leaders from the 1970's to the present, and their efforts to organize and unify nationally in order to solidify the new identity group's place within the public sphere. This book explores the racialization of religion, the framing of religious conversion experiences,the dissemination of post-colonial histories, and the development of Latino Muslim networks, to show that the categories of race, religion, and media are becoming inextricably entwined.
