Items related to About Face: Race in Postmodern America
Race has proven a persistent, reckless, and versatile notion, enabling people to seem more different -- and more similar -- than is often useful. It has been an instrument through which individual and social bodies have become perpetually unsettled, either too certain, or uncertain, about their identity. ABOUT FACE brings the "postmodernist" insights of Lyotard, Bardrillard and others together with wide-ranging work in Afrocentric ethnopsychology, to outline an ethics of interracial collaboration conceptualized from both African and Euro-American perspectives, and to redefine the crucial issues of self, intelligence and freedom in the contemporary world.

Product Description:
Simone melds the theoretical insights of postmodernists like Lyotard, Baudrillard, and Derrida with Afrocentric ethnology, psychology, and anthropology to expose the political ethics of race and racial experience in contemporary America.
