Poyo. 330 $aThe first book-length study of Latina/o experiences in World War II over a wide spectrum of identities and ancestries?from Cuban American, Spanish American, and Mexican American segments to the under-studied Afro-Latino experience?Latina/os and World War II probes the controversial aspects of Latina/o soldiering and citizenship in the war, the repercussions of which defined the West during the twentieth century. The editors also offer a revised, more accurate tabulation of the number of Latina/os who served in the war. Spanning imaginative productions, such as vaudeville and the masculinity of the soldado razo theatrical performances; military segregation and the postwar lives of veterans; Tejanas on the homefront; journalism and youth activism; and other underreported aspects of the wartime experience, the essays collected in this volume showcase rarely seen recollections. Whether living in Florida in a transformed community or deployed far from home (including Mexican Americans who were forced to endure the Bataan Death March), the men and women depicted in this collection yield a multidisciplinary, metacritical inquiry. The result is a study that challenges celebratory accounts and deepens the level of scholarly inquiry into the realm of ideological mobility for a unique cultural crossroads. Taking this complex history beyond the realm of war narratives, Latina/os and World War II situates these chapters within the broader themes of identity and social change that continue to reverberate in postcolonial lives. 517 3 $aLatinas and World War II 517 3 $aLatinos and World War II 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$xParticipation, Hispanic American 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 606 $aHispanic American soldiers$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aHispanic Americans$xSocial conditions$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xArmed Forces$xHispanic Americans$xHistory$y20th century 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xParticipation, Hispanic American. 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xSocial aspects 615 0$aHispanic American soldiers$xHistory 615 0$aHispanic Americans$xSocial conditions 676 $a940.54/0468 702 $aRivas-Rodriguez$b Maggie 702 $aOlgui?n$b B.
