| Except for the addition of religious instruction, Catholic schools were near-identical representations of their public counterparts, complete with the common assimilationist themes. In order to comprehend the current xenophobic English-only movement, it is necessary to critically understand this nation's assimilationist and English monolingual legacy not only in terms of its application to past European immigrants but most importantly, for our discussion, in terms of its application to indigenous and nonwhite linguistic minorities. The schools' failure at least temporarily discredited assimilationist ideas and forced Mexico's bureaucrat/scholars to make practical and theoretical modifications to their project of "uplifting" native peoples. |
