- Description
- Focus on the meanings of passing for what you are not, whether it is mulattos passing as white, Jews passing as Christian, or drag queens passing as women. Bringing together theories of passing across different disciplines -from critical race theory and lesbian and gay studies, to literary theory and religious studies- the essays address the relationship between passing and visibility.
