The Governmentality of Black Beauty Shame - Discourse, Iconicity and Resistance - Shirley Anne Tate - Hardback Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - 2017 -
Brand: Palgrave Macmillan
Description
This book uses the experiences and conversations of Black British women as a lens to examine the impact of discourses surrounding Black beauty shame. Black beauty shame exists within racialized societies which situate white beauty as iconic, and as a result produce Black ‘ugliness’ as a counterpoint.
