Brazil once earned a global reputation as a racial paradise, and the United States is infamous for its overt social exclusion of nonwhites. Yet, given the growing Latino and multiracial populations in the United States, the use of quotas to address racial inequality in Brazil, and the flows of people between each country, contemporary race relations in each place are starting to resemble each other.<\/p>\n<p>Tiffany Joseph interviewed residents of <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Governador_Valadares\" target=\"_blank\">Governador Valadares<\/a>, Brazil&#8217;s largest immigrant-sending city to the U.S., to ask how their immigrant experiences have transformed local racial understandings. Joseph identifies and examines a phenomenon\u2014the transnational racial optic\u2014through which migrants develop and ascribe social meaning to race in one country, incorporating conceptions of race from another. Analyzing the bi-directional exchange of racial ideals through the experiences of migrants, <em>Race on the Move<\/em> offers an innovative framework for understanding how race can be remade in immigrant-sending communities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Race on the Move: Brazilian Migrants and the Global Reconstruction of Race Stanford University Press February 2015 240 pages Cloth ISBN: 9780804792202 Paper ISBN: 9780804794350 Digital ISBN: 9780804794398 Tiffany D.
