Notes
[1] Thomas K. Nakayama and Robert L. Krizek, “Whiteness: A Strategic Rhetoric,” Quarterly Journal of Speech 81 (1995): 291.
[2] According to Calafell, guera is “often used to refer to light-skinned Latina/os” (162).
[3] In Arizona v. United States (11–182), the Supreme Court enjoined as preempted by federal law those sections of (SB 1070) that make failure to comply with federal alien registration requirements a state misdemeanor and authorize warrantless arrests when a law enforcement official has probable cause to believe that the person to be arrested has committed such a crime as would be punishable by removal from the United States. Cisneros's analysis of affect engages the contentious section 2(B), which empowers Arizona law enforcement officers to determine the immigration status of a person who has been detained or arrested “where reasonable suspicion exists that the person is an alien and is unlawfully present in the United States.”
