Hollywood Fantasies of Miscegenation: Spectacular Narratives of Gender and Race
Susan Courtney
Analyzes white fantasies of interracial desire in the history of popular American film. With readings of films like D W Griffith's 1915, "The Birth of a Nation" and of key forgotten films and censorship documents, this book argues that dominant fantasies of miscegenation have had a profound impact on the form and content of American cinema.
