Description

Explore a new interpretation of racial identity in Desiring Whiteness by Seshadri-Crooks. Published by Routledge as part of the Opening Out: Feminism for Today series, this book examines the gap between race as a social construction and its persistent role in everyday visual categorization. By applying Lacanian theories regarding the subject and sexual difference, the text investigates how racial identity becomes a fundamental part of human thought. The author looks at how subjects become raced and whether reading bodies as racially marked is a product of common sense. Through detailed readings of film and literary texts, this work provides a deep look at how the discourse of race functions similarly to the discourse of sexual difference. This book is a significant resource for those studying social sciences, identity, and psychoanalytic theory.
