 American Passages - Unit 2. Exploring Borders: Instructor Overview
Unit 2, "Exploring Borderlands: Contact and Conflict in North America," examines the contact zones and colonial experiences of European explorers and the Native Americans they encountered.
The unit also pays special attention to the way the contact zone between present-day Mexico and the southwestern United States evolved into a hybrid border region that continues to be influenced by the legacies of the different groups who first struggled there for dominance in the sixteenth century.
Unit 2 helps answer these questions by offering suggestions on how to connect these writers to their cultural contexts, to other units in the series, and to other key writers of the era.

To this end, he examines the psychological source hypothesis, which asserts the possibility that such phenomena might be the result of hallucinations, created by fantasy prone individuals, or born out of altered states of consciousness, or some combination of these three.

This is the danger of using of the concepts of a "borderlands dimension" and "visitations" to generalize these experiences.

Anzaldua is a self-proclaimed borderland beinga Chicana who lives close to the border between Mexico and Texas, who shares several cultures and uses a mixture of languages.
With exceptional insight, she creates a mosaic of the marginal person: a person, like herself, who exists in a state of transition, of ambivalence, of conflict; someone who is infused with many cultures yet cannot claim a single one wholly for herself.
Anzaldua may wish to include translations from Spanish in future editions of the book because this would help residents of many other "borderlands" comprehend her own experiences and perspectives more easily than currently possible.
