In the first scholarly account of a well-known, yet rarely discussed, phenomenon, Margaret Hunter provides a historical understanding of hierarchies of skin colour, as well as a contemporary look at related issues in today's society.
Race, Gender, and the Politics of Skin Tone tackles the hidden yet painful issue of colorism in the African American and Mexican American communities. Beginning with a historical discussion of slavery and colonization in the Americas, the book quickly moves forward to a contemporary analysis of how skin tone continues to plague people of color today. This is the first book to explore this well-known, yet rarely discussed phenomenon.
