SUMMARY
The essays inRacialized Politics of Desire in Personal Ads explore the politics of desire--how complex intersections among the social categories of race, gender and sexuality within personal ads reveal a dynamic tapestry of power relations and hierarchies. The ephemeral nature of personal ads, their anonymity, the space limitations, and the linguistic encoding characteristic of the genre make it an interesting and important opportunity to witness the performative nature of identity politics as related to race, sexuality and gender.Lester, Neal A. is the author of 'Racializing Politics of Desire in Personal Ads', published 2007 under ISBN 9780739122075 and ISBN 073912207X.
