Recenzii
Incisive and accessible, India's Imperial Formations, delves into the pervasive anti-Blackness embedded within Indian and diasporic media. By conceptualizing Indian media ecologies as imperial formations rather than merely racist ones, Amrita Ghosh, Rohit K. Dasgupta, and Bhakti Shringarpure highlight the role of Indian media as a formidable global soft power in the twenty-first century. With a bold and ambitious agenda, India's Imperial Formations weaves a compelling narrative that links popular Hindi cinema, social media, Mindy Kaling, and Indian American responses to the murder of George Floyd and the subsequent uprisings.
India's Imperial Formations is an innovative and very topical intervention in the fields of Indian and Indian diaspora cultural studies. This is necessary given that for too long the racism, casteism, and colorism of the commercial Hindi film industry have been overlooked by both fans and scholars.
