Multiracial Identities in Colonial French Africa

Beschreibung

Drawing on multinational oral history and archival research, Rachel Jean-Baptiste investigates the fluctuating identities of multiracial people, or 'mà tis' in colonial French Africa. Offering a nuanced history of race-making, belonging, and rights, she shows how mà tis carved out varied visions of belonging in Africa, Europe, and internationally.
