The issues addressed include contested historiography, social and economic contributions of Afro-Mexicans, social construction of race and ethnic identity, forms of agency and resistance, and contemporary inquiry into ethnographic work on Afro-Mexican communities. Comprised of a core set of chapters that examine the colonial period and a shorter epilogue addressing the modern era, this volume allows the reader to explore ideas of racial representation from the sixteenth century into the twenty-first.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contributors:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Joan Bristol<\/strong>, George Mason University, Fairfax, Virginia<br \/>\n<strong>Patrick Carroll<\/strong>, Texas A &amp; M University, Corpus Christi<br \/>\n<strong>Andrew B.
