- W150483669 abstract "Chicago: Race, Identity, and Nation, 1916-ig^. By Gabriela F. Arredondo. (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2008. Pp. Xii, 255. Illus. Notes, bib., index. Cloth $60.00, paper $25.00). Memories and Migrations: Mapping Boricua & Chicana Histories. Eds. Vicki L. Ruiz and John R. Chavez. (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2008. Pp. Xiv, 234. Illus. Notes, bib., index. Cloth $60.00, paper $20.00). Both of these books offer useful historical interpretations of Latino urban experiences. Chicago: Race, Identity, and Nation, 1916-1939 adds to historiography on immigrants and Americans in Midwest. This regional migration dates to early twentieth century in Great Plains States, and to World War I era in Great Lakes area. has become most important Midwestern MexicanAmerican city, and this book points to its attraction as a hub of industry. Migrants came directly from Mexico as well as from Texas and greater Southwest. book focuses on three neighborhoods - Near West Side just outside Loop, Packingtown/Back of Yards, and South - where the majority of settled. These communities formed roots of a Mexican Chicago that solidified in late 1920s and survived 1930s. author confirms that unlike of U.S. Southwest, in did share many aspects of [the] European immigrant experience. (7) introduction is followed by five chapters entitled Al Norte, Mexican Chicago, The Problem, Striations Within, and Mexicans Emergent. lack of a conclusion contextualizing study within latter decades of twentieth century ends on somewhat of a limiting, dissertation -type note. No mention, for example, is made of subsequent displacement through urban renewal of much of population Near West Side into adjacent (formerly Bohemian) Pilsen neighborhood in 1960s, or of newer North Side and western suburban settlements - including some formed when farm workers settled out from agricultural migrant stream. Arredondo's attention to homeland circumstances is warranted, as is recognition that the racialization process of immigrants highlights distinctiveness of their situation. (7) Nevertheless, her elaboration of analogy is incomplete in that role of religion, specifically Catholicism, is virtually ignored (other than mention of a few churches on pages 39 and 41), despite its importance to all of other factors examined and its comparability to European immigrants - and despite author's passing acknowledgment of ties between Catholicism and immigration during era of 1920s Cristero Wars in Mexico. In recent years a significant historical literature has emerged on Latino urban Catholicism in and Midwest (and elsewhere in United States), so lack of further integration of religious theme remains puzzling. Another area that needed further analysis was impact of Hull House and several other key settlement houses and immigrant aid organizations. Perhaps such omissions owe to author's emphasis on perceiving experience as exceptional and downplaying fact that assimilative institutions did indeed embrace and influence newcomers - as they had Europeans before them. Nevertheless, immigrants utilized mainstream religious and other institutions to fulfill larger goals of reshaping their urban communities in face of unemployment, discrimination, and other hardships. strength of Chicago's settlement houses in immigrant neighborhoods, for example, helped prevent type of forced, governmentally-backed repatriation efforts that occurred in Detroit and several other Midwestern cities, and in notorious case of Los Angeles. Arredondo's discussion of 1920s and 1930s, therefore, glosses over some of benefits of various stripes of Chicago's Americanization programs - not to mention public school education, an area not covered either. …" @default.
