Rezensionen

"The obvious fact that racism is reproduced at the everyday level has not often been theorized lately, and this book is a trailblazer. Critical race studies is increasingly feeling the pinch of the limitations of social constructionism, and this book has sensed a way forward. It will be essential reading to researchers of racism across the humanities and social sciences."

~Arun Saldanha, Professor of Geography, University of Minnesota, United States

"Piercing through the ins and outs of what it means to be racialized, Sachi Sekimoto and Chris Brown offer an incisive approach towards unravelling how race is known, sensed, and felt. Race and the Senses fleshes out the multisensory dimensions of race relations and identity politics, accomplished through a visceral duet between scrupulous introspection and sensory assemblages. A deftly crafted intervention in the fields of sensory scholarship and racial embodiment."
