In Latinx studies, Salvadorans are understudied and our experiences are conflated with that of other Latinxs.<\/p>\n<p>The puzzle I intend to address is why the process of collapsing multiple Latinx identities under one is so prevalent in sociology and the implications this has. I plan on connecting this to power dynamics of access and obtaining legitimacy in the field. By exploring and detailing the uniqueness of a Salvadoran identity I will demonstrate the value of expanding what narratives are included in sociology. Using El Salvador\u2019s civil war for context will be crucial in understanding the development of Salvadoran identity and placemaking in the United States. Other areas that can be explored besides El Salvador\u2019s history are Salvadorans\u2019 assimilation, the \u201crivalry\u201d between Mexicans and Salvadorans, and who has been studying the Salvadoran identity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Project Summary: In no more than 200 words, provide a brief description of your project, including the puzzle you intend to address, the key questions your project attempts to answer, and a brief discussion of how you intend on answering those questions.
