    A compelling new interpretation of how we understand race using Lacanian analysis to explore the visual discrimination we make between races and including close readings of literary and film texts.

  • Product Description

    Through close readings of literary and film texts, Seshadri-Crooks demonstrates that race is a system of differences organized around a privileged term: Whiteness. Contra "Whiteness Studies," she argues that Whiteness should not be understood as the bodily or material property of a particular group, but as a term that makes the logic of race thinking possible.
