Reproducing/Challenging Nationalistic Discourses of Race in Peru and Colombia

I am sharing with blog readers an article which I wrote in 2006 entitled, Hybridity, Assimilation & Nationalistic Discourses of Race (click on link to read) where I discuss the ways in which individuals reproduce or challenge nationalistic discourses of race in Peru and Colombia. Publishing this article online is one way that I am fulfilling my obligation to share resources with the community, for free, to allow greater participation to global debates and theories.

As a professor of social work at the Newman Institute of Social Welfare in Kigoma, Tanzania, the urgency to share resources online becomes increasingly apparent. The first post secondary school located in Kigoma region, Tanzania, my students at Newman Institute have poor access to online journals and other pay-per-access online content. I must say that our school library and general student/faculty access to resources improved 100% following the receipt of donated books from Catholic University located in Washington, DC this year.

I hope that others will follow my lead in facilitating dialogue.
