Despite being lumped together by census data, there are deep divisions between Mexicans and Puerto Ricans living in the United States. Mexicans see Puerto Ricans as deceptive, disagreeable, nervous, rude, violent and dangerous, while Puerto Ricans see Mexicans as submissive, gullible, naive and folksy. The distinctly different styles of Spanish each group speaks reinforces racialized class differences. Despite these antagonistic divisions, these two groups do show some form of Latinidad, or a shared sense of Latin American identity. This study examines how these constructions of Latino self and otherness interact with America's dominant white/black racial consciousness.
