330 .. $a "In 2006, millions of Latinos mobilized in opposition to H.R. 4437, an immigration
proposal pending before the US Congress. In her new book, Heather Silber Mohamed suggests
that these unprecedented protests marked a turning point for the Latino population--a
point that is even more salient ten years later as the issue of immigration roils
the politics of the 2016 presidential election. In The New Americans? Silber Mohamed
explores the complexities of the Latino community, particularly as it is united and
divided by the increasingly pressing questions of immigration. The largest minority
group in the United States, Latinos are also one of the most diverse. The New Americans?
focuses on the three largest national origin groups--Mexicans, Puerto Ricans, and
Cubans--as well as two rapidly growing subgroups, Salvadorans and Dominicans, charting
similarities and differences defined by country of origin, gender, tenure in the country,
and language. Taking advantage of a unique natural experiment, Silber Mohamed's study
also shows how the messages advanced during the 2006 protests led group members to
raise immigration rights to the level of traditional concerns about economics and
education and think differently about what it means to be American--and, furthermore,
to think more distinctly of themselves as American. A concise discussion of major
developments in US immigration policy over the last fifty years, The New Americans?
explores the varied historical experiences of the different Latino national origin
groups. It also traces the evolving role of Latino social movements as a vehicle for
political incorporation over the last century. In its in-depth analysis of the diversity
of the Latino population, particularly in response to the politics of immigration,
the book illuminates questions at the heart of American political culture: specifically,
what does it mean to "become" American?"--Publisher's website
