Deamericanize

To deamericanize someone is to treat them as a foreigner even though they are American, it’s similar to dehumanizing and often goes hand in hand with dehumanization, but deamericanization specifically means that someone’s Americanness is being denied from them

African Americans and Native Americans being treated as foreigners despite being Americans is a prime example of people being deamericanized
