Autor S. Tate
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 mai 2015
Black Women's Bodies and the Nation develops a decolonial approach to representations of iconic Black women's bodies within popular culture in the US, UK and the Caribbean and the racialization and affective load of muscle, bone, fat and skin through the trope of the subaltern figure of the Sable-Saffron Venus as an 'alter/native- body'.

Recenzii

“Black Women’s Bodies and the Nation: Race, Gender and Culture proposes a new analytical approach to the study of black women’s representation. … Tate provides an important theoretical contribution for social scientists. … Her work is of interest to any interdisciplinary scholar interested in the body, intersectionality, race and ethnicity, gender and sexuality, media and popular culture, or identity. ” (Niamba Baskerville, Ethnic and Racial Studies, February, 2016)
