The Existence of the Mixed Race Damn\u00e9s<\/em> is an interdisciplinary and intersectional study of the mixed-race subject in the Americas<\/a> and the rise of oppositional consciousness with a consideration of not only race, but also colonialism. Daphne V. Taylor-Garcia examines the construction of race, gender, and class in coming to an oppositional consciousness as a Spanish colonial subject in the Americas. Spanning the early foundations of knowledge production about colonial\/racial subjects and connecting to contemporary debates on Latinxs<\/a> and racialization, the book takes up the terms through which first-person perceptions of precarity<\/a> and class, mixed-race existence, and gendered power relations are constructed. The Existence of the Mixed Race Damn\u00e9s<\/em> ends with a response to the current scepticism towards organizing as people of color through a decolonial redefinition of the damn\u00e9s<\/a> that centers a critique of anti-black racism and colonial relations.<\/p>\n
