Обзор: "Romance and Rights: The Politics of Interracial Intimacy, 1945-1954 is a major study of the meaning of interracial romance, love, and sex in the ten years after World War II. How was interracial romance treated in popular culture by African American civil rights leaders, soldiers, and white segregationists?" "Previous studies focus on the period beginning in 1967 when the Supreme Court overturned the last state antimiscegenation law (Loving v. Virginia). Alex Lubin's study, however, suggests that we cannot fully understand contemporary debates about "hybridity," or mixed-race identity, without first comprehending how WWII changed the terrain." "The book focuses on the years immediately after the war, when ideologies of race, gender, and sexuality were being reformulated and solidified in both the academy and the public. Lubin shows that interracial romance, particularly between blacks and whites, was a testing ground for both the general American public and the American government."--Jacket.
