She analyzes anti-miscegenation law, statutory definitions of race, and the rhetoric surrounding the phenomenon of racial passing to provide critical accounts of racial categorization and norms, the policing of racial behavior, and the regulation of racial bodies as they are underpinned by demarcations of sexuality, gender, and class. Ehlers places the work of Michel Foucault, Judith Butler's account of performativity, and theories of race 606 $aAfrican Americans$xRace identity 606 $aWhite people$xRace identity 606 $aRacism$zUnited States 606 $aRace discrimination$xLaw and legislation$zUnited States 606 $aRace$xPhilosophy 606 $aDiscipline$xPhilosophy 606 $aPerformative (Philosophy) 606 $aPassing (Identity)$zUnited States$vCase studies 607 $aUnited States$xRace relations 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xRace identity. 615 0$aWhite people$xRace identity. 615 0$aRacism 615 0$aRace discrimination$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aRace$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aDiscipline$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aPerformative (Philosophy) 615 0$aPassing (Identity) 676 $a305.800973 700 $aEhlers$b Nadine$01506599 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910785793903321 996 $aRacial imperatives$93736900 997 $aUNINA
