Race Empire: Uncovering the Hidden History of the United States and the Philippines
![Jese Leos](https://newspaper.aroadtome.com/author/justin-bell.jpg)
In his groundbreaking new book, Race Empire, historian Julian Go unveils the hidden history of American imperialism in the Philippines, arguing that it was a key factor in the development of racial thinking and the construction of the American empire.
Go's book is a sweeping account of the American occupation of the Philippines, from its beginnings in the late 19th century to its end in the mid-20th century. He shows how American officials and settlers imposed a racial hierarchy on the Philippines, with white Americans at the top and Filipinos at the bottom. This hierarchy was justified by the racist ideology of the time, which held that white people were superior to non-white people.

The United States and the Philippines: A History of Empire and Race
The United States and the Philippines have a long and complex history, dating back to the late 19th century. In 1898, the United States defeated Spain in the Spanish-American War and gained control of the Philippines. The United States then ruled the Philippines as a colony for over 50 years.
During this time, the United States imposed a racial hierarchy on the Philippines, with white Americans at the top and Filipinos at the bottom. This hierarchy was justified by the racist ideology of the time, which held that white people were superior to non-white people.
The American occupation of the Philippines had a profound impact on the development of racial thinking in the United States. It helped to solidify the idea that white people were superior to non-white people, and it provided a model for how to impose racial hierarchy on other countries.

The Legacy of American Imperialism in the Philippines
The legacy of American imperialism in the Philippines is complex and multifaceted. On the one hand, the United States helped to modernize the Philippines and introduce it to the global economy. On the other hand, the United States also imposed a racial hierarchy on the Philippines that had a lasting impact on the country's development.
The racial hierarchy that the United States imposed on the Philippines continues to exist today. White Americans are still seen as superior to Filipinos, and this hierarchy is reflected in the Philippines' social, economic, and political institutions.
The legacy of American imperialism in the Philippines is a reminder of the dangers of racism and colonialism. It is a reminder that we must always be vigilant in our fight against these evils.
