Focusing on the self-fashioning of mixed-race individuals within the Black Atlantic context, this book utilizes a diverse array of sources, including diaries, letters, and political speeches. It highlights the development of mixed-race femininity and masculinity throughout the twentieth century, offering a critical perspective against the simplistic portrayal of mixed-race identities as either heroic or delinquent figures in contemporary discourse. The historical breadth and depth challenge existing narratives, making it a significant contribution to discussions on race and identity.
