Native Americans, working-class Mexicans, elite Hispanos, and black and white newcomers all commingled and interacted in the territory in ways that had not been previously possible. But what did it mean to be white in this multiethnic milieu? And how did ideas of sexuality and racial supremacy shape ideas of citizenry and determine who would govern the region? Coyote Nation considers these questions as it explores how New Mexicans evaluated and categorized racial identities through bodily practices. Where ethnic groups were numerous and-in the wake of miscegenation-often difficult to discern, the ways one dressed, bathed, spoke, gestured, or even stood were largely instrumental in conveying one's race. Even such practices as cutting one's hair, shopping, drinking alcohol, or embalming a deceased loved one could inextricably link a person to a very specific racial identity. A fascinating history of an extraordinarily plural and polyglot region, Coyote Nation will be of value to historians of race and ethnicity in American culture. 410 0$aWorlds of desire. 606 $aRacism$zNew Mexico$xHistory 606 $aImperialism$xSocial aspects$zNew Mexico$xHistory 606 $aHuman body$xSocial aspects$zNew Mexico$xHistory 606 $aMind and body$zNew Mexico$xHistory 606 $aSex$xSocial aspects$zNew Mexico$xHistory 606 $aSex customs$zNew Mexico$xHistory 607 $aNew Mexico$xRace relations 607 $aNew Mexico$xSocial conditions$y19th century 607 $aNew Mexico$xSocial conditions$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aRacism$xHistory. 615 0$aImperialism$xSocial aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aHuman body$xSocial aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aMind and body$xHistory. 615 0$aSex$xSocial aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aSex customs$xHistory. 676 $a978.9/04 700 $aMitchell$b Pablo$0968143 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457243203321 996 $aCoyote nation$92198845 997 $aUNINA
