Deportable and Disposable by Lisa A Flores

Deportable and Disposable by Lisa A Flores

Studies popular tropes in the United States for Mexican immigrants, tracing the history and usage of terms that were shaped by race, class, and national borders.

“Flores’s historical work makes an incredibly unique contribution to the fieldMoreover, given her work on race and racialization and the dearth of such work in the broader field of rhetoric, her contribution is even more significant. She provides a wonderful example of how to do what she elsewhere calls ‘racial rhetorical criticism.’”

—Karma Chávez,author of Queer Migration Politics: Activist Rhetoric and Coalitional Possibilities

“Combining a rhetorical and historical approach, Deportable and Disposable will redefine the way that scholars think about deportation, deportability, the racialization of migrants, and the performativity of race.”

—Josue David Cisneros,author of The Border Crossed Us: Rhetorics of Borders, Citizenship, and Latina/o Identity
