Reviews

“By considering the Americas as an expansive geographic unit, Danielle Roper demonstrates how a black studies methodology cuts through the foundational fictions that obscure or romanticize the structural and cultural implications of the afterlives of slavery and colonization. In so doing, she disrupts what otherwise might be considered area studies or nation-centered models by showing how multiracial societies rely on practices and tropes of anti-blackness. An outstanding and timely book.” -- Donette Francis, author of * Fictions of Feminine Citizenship: Sexuality and the Nation in Contemporary Caribbean Literature *
