Navigating Interracial Borders

Black-White Couples and Their Social Worlds

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

'Navigating Interracial Borders' explores the social worlds of black-white interracial couples in the US and examines the ways that collective attitudes shape private relationships. It provides evidence that opposition still exists toward black-white unions and that disapproval is merely being expressed in subtler, colour-blind terms.
