Sarah Steinbock-Pratt. Educating the Empire
In 1898, President William McKinley famously declared the United States’ mission in the Philippines to be one of “benevolent assimilation.” The pithy phrase encapsulated an arsenal of cultural initiatives deployed in the islands by colonial administrators and Washington politicos, quickly making it, alongside Kipling’s call for America to “take up the white man’s burden,” recognizable shorthand for the US variant of the cross-imperial civilizing …
Colonizing Workers
Management of labor was central to articulating and constructing U.S. colonialism in the southern Philippines. Governed by American military officers for fifteen years (1899–1914), the major island of Mindanao and those of the Sulu Archipelago became sites of intensive race management efforts. Colonial officials identified racialized Muslim and Lumad societies as out of step with the modern world of work and developed myriad programs to address t…

Often referred to as Moroland, the Sulu Archipelago and the island of Mindanao were sites of intense US engagement and laboratories of colonial modernity during an age of global imperialism. Exploring the complex relationship between colonizer and colonized from the late nineteenth century until the eve of…

“A New West in Mindanao”
This essay analyzes white settler formations in the Southern Philippines during the early decades of the twentieth century. Occupied by the United States in the wake of the Spanish-American War, the Muslim-majority regions of Mindanao and the Sulu Archipelago became sites of colonial experimentation and reconfiguration. This led to a brief-but-concerted push by Euro-American fortune seekers to settle the “Muslim South.” Supported by U.S. policy m…
Visiting the Metropole
This article describes a series of visits by Muslim Moros from the Southern Philippines to the United States between 1904 and 1927. It argues that, situated in relation to one another, these visits demonstrate the tensions of representation in an imperial community and the coproduced character of colonial identities.
