#lecture, political scienceDespite theoretically acknowledging the importance of intersectionality, much of the work on the political behavior of ethnoracial minorities implies that racial group identity is prioritized above all other identities. For example, when considering Latino/as, most studies explore whether members of the group identify as either Latino/a, as American, or as their national origin. However, Latino/as’ social and political identities are also shaped and defined by gender and class, among other salient groups. In this project, I examine the extent to which gender, class and ethnoracial identities are salient for Latinos and Latinas. I also explore the relationship between the salience of these competing identities and Latino/a’s attitudes and behavior.
