The concept of a "postracial" America -the dream of a nation beyond
race - has attracted much attention over the course of the
presidency of Barack Obama, suggesting that this idea is peculiar
to the contemporary moment alone. Postracial America? An
Interdisciplinary Study attempts to broaden the application of this
idea by situating it in contexts that demonstrate how the idea of
the postracial has been with America since its founding and will
continue to be long after the Obama administration's term ends. The
chapters in this volume explore the idea of the postracial in the
United States through a variety of critical lenses, including film
studies; literature; aesthetics and conceptual thinking; politics;
media representations; race in relation to gender, identity, and
sexuality; and personal experiences. Through this diverse
interdisciplinary exploration, this collection skeptically weighs
the implications of holding up a postracial culture as an admirable
goal for the United States.
