"Mixed Race Hollywood does to race what queer has done to sexualityit challenges binary thinking and the normative categories it creates. This book opens up productive new areas for scholarship on Hollywood representation and the intersections of race, ethnicity, sexuality, gender, and nation." - Chon A. Noriega,University of California, Los Angeles "A significant step forward in the study of race and media. There are very few academic collections that match this one in timeliness, depth and readability. Mixed Race Hollywood reflects both a theoretical turn in critical race studies and the new representational habits of a culture in which celebrities wear their multiracial status as a badge of pride and sign of demographic pull." - Diane Negra,University of East Anglia "Each essay stands as an exciting contribution to an open-ended discussion." (Choice) "An interrogation of pop culture's representations of multi-racial characters and interracial relationships." (Colorlines) "An immensely readable interrogation of contemporary representations of multi-racial characters and inter-racial relationships in film, television, and popular culture." (ColorLines) "An accomplished, well-researched view of race identity in cinema." (M/C Reviews)
