A 3 page essay that examines 2 texts and their historical perspective on Mexican American experience. Ethnocentrism is defined as the tendency to evaluate all other groups of people according to the values, standards and cultural traditions of one's own group. In other words, ethnocentrism connotes the idea that the way a particular society acts, believes, worships, and lives is the one "right" way and all others are perceived as "pagan," "primitive," or simply "wrong." Racism and bigotry find their roots in ethnocentrism and while racism is acknowledged in contemporary Western society as wrong, the roots of ethnocentrism are much harder to eradicate. This is shown by the scholarship of Rodolfo Acuna and Miguel Leon-Portillo and their accounts of classical indigenous and early mesoamerican history. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
