of Spanish in the United States, its racialization, and Spanish
speakers’ resistance against racialization. This novel approach
challenges the "foreigner" status of Spanish and shows that
racialization victims do not take their oppression meekly. It
traces the rootedness of Spanish since the 1500s, when the
Spanish empire began the settlement of the new land, till today,
when 39 million U.S. Latinos speak Spanish at home. Authors show
how whites categorize Spanish speaking in ways that denigrate
the non-standard language habits of Spanish speakers—including
in schools—highlighting ways of overcoming racism.</span></font>
