Abstract

'Imagining the Mulatta' demonstrates how mixed-race women of African and European descent are harnessed in popular media as a tool to uphold white supremacy and discipline people of African descent to uphold state policies of antiblackness. Uncovering the racialized and gendered paradigms of U.S. and Brazilian media, the text uses case studies of texts from a broad range of popular culture media-film, telenovelas, television shows, music videos, magazines, newspapers, and Olympic ceremonies-to elucidate how the U.S. mulatta and Brazilian mulata figures operates within and across the United States and Brazil as a response to racial anxieties and notions of white superiority.

This text studies the relationship between women, ageing, and celebrity. Focusing on an array of case studies and star/celebrity images, it examines the powerful, contradictory, and sometimes celebratory ways in which celebrity culture offers a crucial site for the contemporary and historical construction of discourses on ageing femininities.
