In Indian Given Maria Josefina Saldana-Portillo addresses current
racialized violence and resistance in Mexico and the United States
with a genealogy that reaches back to the sixteenth century.
Saldana-Portillo formulates the central place of indigenous peoples
in the construction of national spaces and racialized notions of
citizenship, showing, for instance, how Chicanos/as in the
U.S./Mexico borderlands might affirm or reject their indigenous
background based on their location. In this and other ways, she
demonstrates how the legacies of colonial Spain's and Britain's
differing approaches to encountering indigenous peoples continue to
shape perceptions of the natural, racial, and cultural landscapes
of the United States and Mexico. Drawing on a mix of archival,
historical, literary, and legal texts, Saldana-Portillo shows how
los indios/Indians provided the condition of possibility for the
emergence of Mexico and the United States.
