"Crip Colony is an interdisciplinary analysis of the racial politics of disability, mestizaje, and sexuality in the Philippines. Sony Coráñez Bolton reads across language archives and overlapping Spanish and US imperialisms, drawing on colonial records, visual culture, poetry, presidential speeches, travel narratives, and political essays, in addition to the famous Spanish-language Filipino novel Noli Me Tangere. Through these texts he shows how these imperial and racial regimes were also regimes of ability. Expanding traditional engagements with mestizaje, Coráñez Bolton examines the ways that Filipinx mestizaje became a eugenic framework which identified native Filipino subjects as inherently disabled, in need of reform and rehabilitation, and mixed-race Filipinos as able to offer a form of "benevolent rehabilitation" which would prepare these deficient natives for assimilation into the US empire. Through this crip critique of coloniality, Coráñez Bolton shows how mestizaje allowed for "superior" mixed-race subjects to govern the archipelago in collusion with imperial processes of dispossession and debilitation"-- Provided by publisher.
