Colorblindness, Post-raciality, and Whiteness in the United States

"This book problematizes the ways in which the discourses of colorblindness and post-raciality are articulated in the age of Obama.

However racism's localization on the body, and what the author identifies as the bodiliness of racism, has not disappeared. As a way of thinking about race matters in the United States, the author suggests that seeing through colorblindness and post-raciality is more urgent than ever"--
