In Deportable and Disposable: Public Rhetoric and the Making of the u201cIllegalu201d Immigrant, Flores examines four stereotypes that frame Mexican immigrants as criminal, deportable, and disposable. Flores considers how these tropes have functioned historically since the 1920s, and examines moments of rhetorical crisis around Mexican immigration in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. Flores also considers how these characterizations persist today. Floresu2019 examination of the language used to stereotype Mexican immigrants offers insight into racialized language and rhetorical racialization.
