Latin America.

Order Description

– Choose a popular idea/myth/stereotype about Latin America or
Latin American people,
a) identify its specific historical origins (e.g. in colonialism)
b) and the means by which it has been disseminated globally, and c) give an example of its real-life impact on Latin Americans.
(For example, the eroticization of black women in colonial-era sexual and racial politics, its circulation within pseudo-scientific racial schema in the 19th century and in popular literary/cultural images of black women, and its relationship to contemporary sex tourism and prostitution. YOU CANNOT USE THIS EXAMPLE IN YOUR ESSAY)
