Consider whether Townsend would agree or disagree to post below.

For example: if a classmate chooses Martinez to discuss cite evidence from Townsend to argue whether she would agree or disagree with the assessment.

post by classmate #1

  1. While Martinez constructed her book to showcase the political and cultural systems that the Spanish put in place when they were creating “New Spain”, further evaluation into the changes she mentions actually give way to a certain degree of continuity that the indigenous people were able to maintain through this period. Continuity in their structures even through colonization was bound to happen as the Spanish did not exactly take this land as their own empire, but instead made it a tribute state. Martinez mentions the New Laws of of 1542 and the “two-republic model” early on to emphasize how the indigenous people did not lose all of their autonomy, they were actually granted the right to “freedom” and having a separate republic allowed them to wield some of the influence they still had (Martinez 2008, 95). Through the “two- republic model”, in the pueblos they were forced  into, the creation of their own indigenous government structures allowed them to take European conventions and use them for protection by combining the new beliefs with their own traditional ones. Also, later on some of the traditional elite rulers were allowed to maintain power over their lands because they had shown loyalty by converting (Martinez 2008, 107). Continuity of traditional native practices and culture was maintained through the indigenous communities manipulation of the restraints they were under in order to sneak in some of their influence, and when allowed they tried to keep traditional rule prominent.

Would Townsend Agree or disagree and why?

post by classmate #2

  1. In terms of continuity after Spanish colonization, Martínez discusses that a degree of freedom was attributed to indigenous populations because of their acceptance of religious conversion and the fact that the Spanish were residing on indigenous lands (Martínez, 2008, 97). One illustration of an independence granted can be demonstrated through the cacicazgo political-economic system. This institution provided some continuation of indigenous practices by maintaining the status, leadership, and wealth of the descendants of leaders of pre-Hispanic indigenous dynasties (Martínez, 2008, 108). To add, the Spanish offered flexibility in maintaining indigenous social norms by allowing women to inherit these cacicazgos in certain circumstances (Martínez, 2008, 109). However, there was not always continuity in how women were treated after colonization. After inheritance of these cacicazgos, the status of many women declined resulting from the Spaniard’s favor of primogeniture (Martínez, 2008, 109). Further, in legal settings, Mexica women were granted less autonomy, as they were not perceived as legally responsible for themselves under colonial law (Martínez, 2008, 113). Provided these examples, in some instances, there did exist a degree of continuity of indigenous leadership and social practices.

Would Townsend Agree or disagree and why?

Essay

/in /by

Before the Western hemisphere was named “America” or “Latin America,” the indigenous empires had their own self-designated names such as Anahuac for what is today known as Central Mexico, and Tawatinsuyu for the Andes region of Bolivia, Peru, and Ecuador. An Italian cartographer realized that he was sailing along the coast of a continent and named it after himself, “America,” thus creating the fourth continent known to Europeans.

By the middle of the nineteenth century, citizens of the United States had begun to refer to themselves as “Americans” and Los Americanos who spoke Spanish had begun to refer to themselves as “Latin Americans” (rather than Americans or Spanish Americans) with encouragement from France (Review the term Latinidad. See pg. 58-59 in Mignolo’s Chapter 2).

Talk about the significance of names such as “American,” “Spanish American,” “Creoles” and “Latin Americans.” Why choose one identity over another? Which countries are traditionally included in the designation “Latin American”? Why? Which countries are excluded?

  • Prepare and Submit

Write a well-organized essay with a minimum of 1000 to 1200 words (3 to 4 pages double-spaced) in which you address the following:

PROMPT: Analyze and discuss the material that has been assigned, and address the following statement: “Those countries south of the United States which speak languages derived from Latin, such as Spanish, Portuguese or French have a common heritage and identity and should be included in the phrase ‘Latin America‘.” Discuss if you agree or disagree with the statement.

Some issues to consider:

  • Should English-speaking countries such as Belize and Jamaica be included in Latin America? What about Dutch-speaking countries such as Surinam?
  • Should Puerto Rico be included in Latin America since it is not an independent country?
  • What about Bolivar and Jose Martí’s idea of calling all the countries part of “Nuestro América” instead of dividing the hemisphere between North, South, and Central?
  • Some Brazilians do not like to be included in Latin America. Do they have a point? Would “Ibero-America” be a better term?
  • Haiti has traditionally been included in Latin America by some scholars but excluded by others. What about Quebec?
  • If your family is from Latin America or a Spanish-speaking country you prefer to refer to yourself as “Latino”? or “Hispanic?” or just American?

  1. Discuss how American corporations changed over the course of the 1920s.
  2. Discuss how the Sacco-Vanzetti case laid bare some of the fault lines beneath the surface of American society in the 1920s.
  3. After World War I and more than twenty years of reform, Americans became much more conservative in the 1920s. In fact, Reinhold Niebuhr stated that America was “rapidly becoming the most conservative nation on earth.” Give examples that defend this perception of America as conservative in the 1920s.
  4. One newspaper of the day declared that “the American citizen’s first importance to his country is no longer that of a citizen but that of a consumer.” Analyze the validity of that statement.
  5. The two sides of the debate of the Scopes trial defined freedom differently. Explain what freedom meant to each side and how the Scopes trial mirrored the trends in American society during the 1920s.
  6. The 1920s are commonly referred to as the Roaring Twenties. Document who was and who was not “roaring” in the 1920s. Your answer ought to illustrate the dichotomy of the decade.
  7. The “New Negro” of the Harlem Renaissance is many things. W. E. B. Du Bois attempts to express it one way as a “double consciousness”—where the black man wants white America to appreciate his African roots and where he also wants to be American. Langston Hughes also expresses it in poetry with his 1925 poem I, Too, Sing America, where he reminds his readers that while darker, he too is American. Write an essay based on these ideas of the “New Negro” and the expressions of the Harlem Renaissance of celebration of being black and American.
  8. The Great Depression came dramatically with the stock market crash, but the causes of the Depression had been planted well before 1929. Discuss what brought on the Great Depression and why Hoover was not able to properly address the crisis.
