Autor Lenore Todd
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 feb 2025
Beyond the Mulatta: Haunted Hybridity in Advertising will chronicle and analyze black and mixed-race women's trajectory in postcolonial visual culture history. In contemporary western advertising, there is a frequently recurring stock figure of a particular type of black woman. This figure is a of African descent, with a light to medium skin tone and a loosely curled Afro. She is an engine of middle-class aspiration and an avatar of "a better future" that is close at hand, but will never happen.
