Drawing upon Omi and Winant’s theory of "racialization," they call for a highly contextualized analysis that takes into account specific Latino groups and geographic locations. They develop their argument by investigating how Guatemalan and Dominican immigrants in Atlanta must negotiate their unique understandings of race with forces of racial homogenization that erase distinctions and characterize "all" Latinos as undocumented Mexican laborers. The authors explain how Guatemalans and Dominicans rely on different resources to challenge this racial construction and assert a distinct racial and ethnic identity.}, number={3}, journal={Norteamérica, Revista Académica del CISAN-UNAM}, author={Odem, Mary and Browne, Irene}, year={2011}, month={dic.} }
