Whitewashing America: Material Culture and Race in the Antebellum Imagination
Bridget T. Heneghan
Even before mass marketing, American consumers bought products that gentrified their households and broadcast their sense of “the good things in life”. Bridging literary scholarship, archaeology, history, and art history, Whitewashing America explores how material goods shaped antebellum notions of race, class, gender, and purity.
