Race (The New Critical Idiom)

Alexa Alice Joubin, professor of English, theatre, international affairs and East Asian languages and Cultures, co-authored this new work that draws on culturally and historically diverse materials to examine the intersections of race and gender, whiteness, blackness in a global context and race in South Africa, Israel, India, Europe, the United States, East Asia and Asian America. From Black Lives Matter movements to #MeToo movements, the book close reads a wide array of examples from the Middle Ages to Renaissance to the 20th century.
