"An important and very readable work on the comparative histories and visual cultural formations of race and mixed race in Brazil and the United States."-Camilla Fojas, author of Zombies, Migrants, and Queers: Race and Crisis Capitalism in Pop Culture
"Jasmine Mitchell deftly illuminates how mixed-race performers, characters and television and film narratives in Brazil and the United States, presumably indicative of increasingly colorblind and multicultural nations, conversely play a dynamic role in the management of national identities and racial imaginaries."-Mary Beltrán, author of Latina/o Stars in U.S. Eyes: The Making and Meanings of Film and TV Stardom
