Problem: One of the major concepts that ethnic studies scholars grapple with is the idea of colonization. Discuss how either Spanish or U.S. colonization impacted nations and groups of Latin America, Asia, or the Pacific Islands. How has U.S. racialization abroad shaped interactions with one particular group (Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, Filipinos, or Pacific Islanders) once members of that group migrated to the United States? Cite specific laws, events, wars, or processes that deployed a racialized logic in the treatment of colonized citizens.
