| Summary: | "Fandom, Now in Color gathers together seemingly contradictory narratives that intersect at the (in)visibility of race/ism in fandom and fan studies. This collection engages this problem by undertaking the different tactics of decolonization-diversifying methodologies, destabilizing canons of "must-read" scholarship by engaging with multiple disciplines, making whiteness visible but not the default against which all other kinds of racialization must compete, and decentering white fans even in those fandoms where they are the assumed majority. These new narratives concern themselves with a broad swath of media, from cosplay and comics to tabletop roleplay and video games, and fandoms from Jane the Virgin to Japan's K-pop scene. Through this layered multiplicity, Coloring Outside the Lines asserts that no one answer or approach can sufficiently come to grips with the shifting categories of race, racism, and racial identity"-- Provided by publisher. |
