Summary:
"This book documents historical and socio-economic factors that created Latino and Latina images and stereotypes, beginning with the conquest of the American continent by Europeans followed by colonization and new nation-states in the early 1800s. These concepts were incorporated into literature of the 19th century and then into the motion picture art form in the 1890s"-- Provided by publisher.
