#PanAmericanism
I'll be hoping and praying and begging and fighting for panamericanism to survive this.

Panamericanism is on the up and up

It was probably the PanAmericanism that got to them.

Panamericanism is the quickest way to 1 billion Americans.

Wild coincidence: As Bad Bunny reminded people that Spanish is an American language, and highlighted panamericanism, this week I wrote about how Disney was doing something very similar during WWII with Saludos Amigos. open.substack.com/pub/rmwhitta...

I think "Quebec is Latin America" is a shorter path to panamericanism than "Mexican is a race," which seems to be our only alternative model.

Every Latine intellectual eventually converges upon two dry thoughts: "the United States is a Latin American country," and "Panamericanism would be a cool idea, shame about all the justifiably touchy reasons we all prefer to have different states instead."

See, that too is completely incomprehensible to anyone out of the loop of panAmericanism. If I hadn’t been for a homestay in New Zealand, I wouldn’t even have known that “Aotearoa” is New Zealand in Māori either, and I wouldn’t have questioned it either.

Eh, I find they misread the creative process too much and decontextualize wartime panamericanism to force it through a funnel of post-Truman Cold War thinking.

Yeah we just gotta get really into liberation theology and Panamericanism

Do you know *why* this stopped happening? Because of the United States! Something as simple as looking up "panamericanism" would dispel the illusion that America has ever been a purely US term. It is not. It was appropriated, and taken away from Latin America based on supremacist notions.

Notice here the problem isn't "ooh this is inaccurately used". Its the idea of inferiority, which is repeatedly pinned on Latin America by american cultural production.

When America as a term had the notion of equality, the days of panamericanism, they proudly said: "we want to be American".

I encourage people to stop calling it "America." It is the United States OF America (the "US"). There are multiple Americas, and they should all be one. Pan-Americanism!

Got my copy of Grandin this weekend, can’t wait to tear in. It is time for Panamericanism.

In a foreign land, he fought with ideas. He co-founded journals to give a unified voice to the nascent Spanish American republics, arguing for a distinct cultural identity. #PanAmericanism

I guess the issue with Bad Bunny is that he embodies Panamericanism without WASP domination.
Boo hoo!
