    The Changs Next Door to the Diazes: Regional racial formation

    In The Changs Next Door to the Diazes, Wendy Cheng introduces the concept of regional racial formation in the chapter “Theorizing Regional Racial Formation.” This framework emphasizes how race is not only shaped by national or global structures, but also deeply informed by local and regional histories, politics, and geographies.

    In at least 350 words, not including the prompt or headings, reflect on the theoretical concept of regional racial formation as outlined by Cheng. How does this framework challenge or expand dominant understandings of race and racialization in the United States? In what ways can analyzing race through a regional lens reveal the complexities and contradictions of racial identities, solidarities, and inequalities?

    Use specific examples from the text to support your reflection, and consider how regional racial formation might inform your own critical understanding of race in your community, city, or region.

    Additionally, discuss key points of the AAPI Latinos video.

  • Primary Source/Podcast Response

    Answer the following questions for two of the three assigned primary sources (George

    Hewes, Declaration of Independence, and Mary Smith Cranch). Your answers should be
    based on evidence and be developed enough to sufficiently answer the questions.
    George R. T. Hewes, A retrospect of the Boston Tea-Party, 1834
    1.     Parliament stipulated that the tax on tea was to be paid when the East India
    Company tea shipments were unloaded. In most American cities the ships sat at
    harbor full of their cargo. In Boston, however, there was a showdown which led
    to the Tea Party. According to Hewes, why is that?
    2.     Was the Boston Tea Party the actions of a disorganized mob? Why/why not?
    What does this tell you about colonial resistance?
    3.     According to Hewes, what happened to those individuals who defied the men
    destroying the East India Company tea? What is the larger significance of such
    actions? Connect your answer to the podcast segment about the tarring and
    feathering of enemies.
    Declaration of Independence, 1776
    1.     In your view, what is the most important part of the Declaration of Independence?
    Identify the phrase or sentence that best supports your answer and explain why it
    is the most significant aspect of the Declaration.
    2.     About two-thirds of the document deals with grievances against the king? Why is
    this such a significant part of the Declaration of Independence (and one that is
    often overlooked)? Which grievance seems the most egregious in your view (to
    help answer this last question, perhaps imagine yourself as a British subject in
    colonial America at that time)?

    Mary Smith Cranch comments on politics, 1786-87
    1.     Who is Mary Smith Cranch? What is her station in life (in other words, is Mary
    an elite or just an average citizen and why do you say this)?
    2.     Is Cranch politically active? Find ways to answer this question as both yes and
    no.
    3.     According to Cranch, what are the three biggest issues/concerns confronting
    Massachusetts in 1786-1787? Identify/explain using evidence from the document.
    4.     Does Cranch sympathize with Shays and his supporters? Why/why not? Would
    her views align with Hamiltons (podcast), why/why not?

  • Hist paper

    Fine, you want sources here:

    Documenting early mapping and mineral assessments of northern Minnesota. These include early references to iron formations and the conditions that made discovery possible.This is not an academic source.

    Mesabi Iron Range Geology & History Presentation

    Minnesota territorial and state land records 1847-1815, which mapped the region and later helped identify mineral-rich areas.This is not an academic source.

    Bi-MonthlyAd_5.11×10.5_01B_Mesabi.pdf

    Minnesota Mine/Soudan Mine shipping records, 1884 onward, document the first commercial iron shipments from Minnesota. This document is the beginning of the region’s mining economy.This is not an academic source.

    Mesabi Iron Range | MNopedia

    A scholarly overview of the Mesabi Range’s development, including its long-term economic and cultural significance. This is not an academic source.

    The people of the Mesabi Range [by] John Sirjamaki.

    A sociological and historical study of the communities that formed around the mines, including demographic change, immigration, and labor. You may use this source, but it is from 1946thus, not up-to-date.

    Provides geological background and mining history, including the timeline of discoveries across the region. This is not an academic sourcein fact, it is the same powerpoint and the same link to your first source at the top of this list.

    For example, Twin Metal’s historical timeline outlines the early years of commercial mining in northeastern Minnesota, including the 1884 shipments and the rapid growth of mining towns like Ely. This is not an academic sourceand it is exactly the same flyer as your third source above.

    Im drawn to the 1884 discovery of iron ore on the Mesabi Range because it represents a turning point where geology, industry, and human migration collided to reshape an entire region. The Mesabi discovery didnt just launch a mining districtit triggered rapid economic transformation in northern Minnesota, attracting workers, capital, and infrastructure almost overnight. m interested in how a single geological event can ripple outward into demographic change, community formation, and national industrial growth. Studying this moment helps me understand how natural resources influence settlement patterns, labor systems, and regional identity. It also connects to broader themes I care abouthow environments shape human societies, how economic booms alter landscapes, and how local histories tie into national narratives of industrialization.

    Also, keep in mind I can’t always come to your office because I have to work on a daily basis. And last I checked, this email was the assignment. So, after reading all of this and giving you my topic, is it a yes or no for me to research, keep in mind we only have 3 months left in the semester.

    Thanks,

    Mason Raaen

    Dear Mason:

    If you cannot make my office hours, you are welcome, as I have said repeatedly, to make an appointment with me.

    Your sources above are not academic sources, except for the one 1946 article I noted. Thus, you may not use any of them for your research. If we sit down together, then we can look at sources together and brainstorm together. If you were to base your paper on the sources above, it would not earn a passing grade.

    I gave you seven out of ten points for the required one-on-one meeting with me because you have not circled back to see me about your topic. Because you have not had HIST 3010if I am remembering correctlyyou are at a disadvantage regarding this semester-long research paper. Thus, it is incumbent upon you to work with me to understand appropriate and acceptable sources for a university-level research paper for an upper division class in your major.

    At the moment, I cannot authorize this topic because the sources are not there.

    Subject: Re: Topic for research project

    Dear Mason

    Why, why cant I get you to come see me in person about your topic? My job is to make sure that you have a topic that is actually doable for this course and for the time we have left.

    You have not told me about your sources for this latest topic idea of yours. What have you found? What primary sources have you located? What secondary sources exist?

    And why are you interested in this topic?

    The task of settling on a topic is a critically important one. Doing it by email is a terrible idea because it is likely to result in a very frustrating time for both of us.

    Either email me in great detail about your sources or come see me tomorrow before class.

    Subject: Topic for research project

    I would want to research the 1884 Discovery of Iron ore on the Mesabi Range and its Immediate Economic Impact on Northern Minnesota. It would focus on the exact 1884 discovery near Mountain, how it triggered rapid town formation, Early investors, and land speculation. Let me know if you want me to narrow it down more or be more specific

  • History Question

    Paper 2

    Topic:

    Ata-Malik Juvaini in his The History of the World-Conqueror has the difficult task of reconciling the

    Mongol conquests with an Islamic interpretation of history. In particular, he provides a positive

    interpretation of the career of Chinggis Khan, the founder of the Mongol world empire and the ancestor

    of Juvainis employers the Ilkhans. Given that at Juvainis time the Ilkhans were still non-Muslims and

    non-monotheists, how does he accomplish this task? It may be useful to think of Juvainis work in

    comparison or contrast with Ibn Shaddads more conventional Islamic portrayal of Salah al-Din.

    Due date: February 24, 2026, midnight, via Canvas.
