Recent rapid increases in the number of Latino-owned businesses (LOBs) in the United States far outpace the growth in the number of businesses generally. In many ways, the growth and success of LOBs are very important to a healthy business, economic, and entrepreneurial ecosystem nationally. Yet there are few national studies of Latino-owned businesses, their characteristics, or their market orientation. Utilizing a national random sample of 4024 LOBs undertaken by the Stanford Latino Entrepreneurship Initiative (SLEI) in 2018, LOBs are classified by market orientation. The classification segments LOBs along their primary product (ethnic and non-ethnic) and client dimensions (ethnic and non-ethnic) resulting in a two-by-two market orientation typology of four product/client classes and sizes: (1) ethnic market niche (25.9%), (2) ethnic market experience (4.3%), (3) ethnic-friendly marketplace (27.2%), and (4) post-ethnic marketplace (42.6%). Group classification is further examined and estimated through a multinomial logistic regression.

Grounding the analysis in racial formation and identity formation theories, I analyzed how South American immigrants (Argentines, Colombians, and Peruvians) in Ohio contend with South American and US racial structures and racialization—or what I call Mexicanization—and how they view their racial and ethnic identities. Mexicanization is a specific racialization or homogenization based on Mexican and associated stereotypes applied through microaggressions and discrimination with the primarily white population. Through forty-three semi-structured in-person interviews, the respondents reveal they preferred an ethnic identity over racial identity, and most selected a panethnic identity. The findings indicate that this identity forms, in some cases, as a reaction and challenge to Mexicanization while also providing empowerment. Overall, identities emerge from a complex dialectic process that involves the US and the South American immigrants’ country of origin racial and ethnic ideologies, but mostly they emerge from interactions in local communities, where these immigrants formed affirming panethnic identities as they confronted Mexicanization.

This article highlights the invisibility of farmworkers in Michigan, a state dependent on migrant labor for more than one hundred years. The study describes migrant housing camps using data from fieldwork, visits to housing camps, and the shadowing of outreach staff from service organizations. Although regulated, accommodations are minimal, substandard, and overcrowded, affecting the health and well-being of workers. The study describes what farmworkers do in their scant evening hours, the vulnerability of H-2A guest workers, the meticulousness accompanying outreach, and how farmworkers are visible to outreach staff. The study concludes by highlighting how farmworkers are just as invisible as are their housing camps, their contributions to the food movement, and their erasure from historic tales and promotional materials in local tourist towns, which stress the contributions of only some groups. The article underscores the value of outreach, the outstanding work performed by outreach staff, and avenues for increasing the visibility and advocacy on behalf of farmworkers.
