There is no teasing apart what interracial couples think of
themselves from what society shows them about themselves. Following
on her earlier ground-breaking study of the social worlds of
interracial couples, Erica Chito Childs considers the larger
context of social messages, conveyed by the media, that inform how
we think about love across the color line. Examining a range of
media, from movies to music to the web, Fade to Black and White
offers an informative and provocative account of how the perception
of interracial sexuality as 'deviant' has been transformed in the
course of the 20th century and how race relations are understood
today.
