Interracial sex mattered to the British colonial state in West Africa. In Crossing the Color Line, Carina E. Ray goes beyond this fact to reveal how Ghanaians shaped and defined these powerfully charged relations. The interplay between African and European perspectives and practices, argues Ray, transformed these relationships into key sites for consolidating colonial rule and for contesting its hierarchies of power. With rigorous methodology and innovative analyses, Ray brings Ghana and Britain into a single analytic frame to show how intimate relations between black men and white women in the metropole became deeply entangled with those between black women and white men in the colony in ways that were profoundly consequential. Based on rich archival evidence and original interviews, the book moves across different registers, shifting from the micropolitics of individual disciplinary cases brought against colonial officers who “kept” local women to transatlantic networks of family, empire, and anticolonial resistance. In this way, Ray cuts to the heart of how interracial sex became a source of colonial anxiety and nationalist agitation during the first half of the twentieth century.

War on Crime revises the history of the New Deal transformation and suggests a new model for political history-one which recognizes that cultural phenomena and the political realm produce, between them, an idea of "the state." The war on crime was fought with guns and pens, movies and legislation, radio and government hearings. All of these methods illuminate this period of state transformation, and perceptions of that emergent state, in the years of the first New Deal. The creation of G-men and gangsters as cultural heroes in this period not only explores the Depression-era obsession with crime and celebrity, but it also lends insight on how citizens understood a nation undergoing large political and social changes. Anxieties about crime today have become a familiar route for the creation of new government agencies and the extension of state authority. It is important to remember the original "war on crime" in the 1930s-and the opportunities it afforded to New Dealers and established bureaucrats like J. Edgar Hoover-as scholars grapple with the ways states assert influence over populations, local authority, and party politics while they pursue goals such as reducing popular violence and protecting private property.

With the increasing number of Africans in Europe and subsequent upsurge in intermarriages, there has been a rise of biracial individuals in most countries in Europe who do not fit in the realm of society's social stratum. Marriages transverse ethnic borders, rising in frequency, yet the cognitive debate on ethnicity, race, migration, and how these variables affect couples and their children from interracial marriages is a serious hassle. This book therefore delves into the multiple realities of interracial marriages through personal narratives of those engaged in it and who go through it on a daily basis, in Denmark, Poland, Sweden, Germany and Austria.I find that biracial individuals define their identities in different ways likewise; I also find that their parents define them in various ways too. Some biracial individuals are strongly attached to their Black racial identity, while others engage in contextual and situational racial identity work, in spite of how the society perceives them. This book is also designed to understand how Black-white interracial parents categorize and reconcile their children's racial identity. Moreover, the objective of this research book is also to expose some of the approaches and strategies parents of biracial individuals convey to their children in order to influence or trivialise their racial identity. The book therefore, presents the research results on interracial marriage, looking at the multiple challenges that emanates from interracial marriage and how parents cope with the dual identity of their children

Marriage between blacks and whites is a longstanding and deeply ingrained taboo in American culture. On the eve of World War II, mixed-race marriage was illegal in most states. Yet, sixty years later, black-white marriage is no longer illegal or a divisive political issue, and the number of such couples and their mixed-race children has risen dramatically. Renee Romano explains how and why such marriages have gained acceptance, and what this tells us about race relations in contemporary America. The history of interracial marriage helps us understand the extent to which America has overcome its racist past, and how much further we must go to achieve meaningful racial equality.

This book on A Dilemma! Black Marriage vs. Interracial Marriage is a topic for discussing. There are several reasons a Black female never marries: Such as not finding a suitable mate, commitment to career or other personal reasons. But if a successful Black female does decide to get married, there is a dilemma..... The question is, Should I marry into another ethnic group? There are literally thousands of Black marriages today, but they are on the decline. The couples I chose are the lucky few I put in this book. I am proud of all the achievements these professional people attained. I researched each individual profile by compiling public information on them with no intention to scandalize or criticize them on the choices they made in choosing their mate and it should be that way for all of us, whether we succeed or fail. The trend, I am seeing as I write this book is Black men, who become successful prefer Multiracial or White women for their mate. This leaves the Black female in a dilemma when it comes to finding a suitable mate. How sad!!!!!!!!! Blacks should be proud of their racial heritage and not be ashamed of their mother's roots or where they came from.. Once they realize everything came from Black, they might change their way of thinking. Ponder this paragraph: When role models are presented in a positive way, it will decrease resentment and inferiority from being breaded into a people. When a people discovers positive contributions their forebears contributed to society, it gives hope and pride to them; then they can grasp what the color of Black really means. Today, Black men have the opportunity to become anything they strive to achieve, including the President of the United States. However, they still do not support their Black mothers and Black sisters. who needs a successful Black man in their lives also. Black men should look upon their Blackness as strength instead of a weakness. Marry your own kind and keep your lineage strong. However, the stigma of being Black and the lack of knowledge has hindered Blacks, who are blessed with talent and fame to betray their own kind, without giving a Black female any chance to be successful and happy with her own kind. Wisdom to overcome inferiority and cherish your own kind is the only answer for Blacks to be accepted as equals. Finally, thank God for your special gift and be proud of your roots like President Barak Obama, who married a sister.

Students will be equipped to confidently navigate the issues of race and ethnicity, examine its contradictions, and gain a comprehensive understanding of how race and ethnic relations are embedded in the institutions that structure their lives. User-friendly without sacrificing intellectual or theoretical rigor, the Seventh Edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect the current debates and the state of contemporary U.S race relations.

Through in-depth interviews with individuals from black-white multiracial families, and insightful sociological analysis, Heather M. Dalmage examines the challenges faced by people living in such families and explores how their experiences demonstrate the need for rethinking race in America. She examines the lived reality of race in the ways multiracial family members construct and describe their own identities and sense of community and politics. Their lack of language to describe their multiracial existence, along with their experience of coping with racial ambiguity and with institutional demands to conform to a racially divided, racist system is the central theme of Tripping on the Color Line.
