panethnically

MaryW commented on the word panethnically

In Los Angeles, for instance, Latinos and Asian Americans now make up a collective majority. This book investigates how Filipinos understand their identity vis-à-vis these two fast-growing communities. In other words, I am interested in panethnic moments, or those times when Filipinos have felt a sense of collective identity with either Latinos or other Asians. That Filipinos share historical and cultural connections with both Latinos and Asians makes this an even more interesting puzzle to investigate.

Undoubtedly, the 1960s civil rights movement also reshaped how people came to value minority identities. . . . Ethnic groups that once considered themselves separate came together inside panethnic identities.

Filipinos' unwillingness to identify <b>panethnically</b> speaks volumes about their ambivalent relationship with Asian American identity.
