Part of Race In The Atlantic World Ser series

Summary

Attentive to the tenuousness of freedom, Ze Winters argues that the concubine figure’s manifestation as both historical subject and African diasporic goddess indicates her centrality to understanding how black subjects performed gender, theorized race and freedom, and produced their own diasporic identities within Atlantic slave societies.

The Mulatta Concubine by Lisa Ze Winters

Representations of the free mulatta concubine repeatedly depict the women as defined by their sexual attachment to white men, and offer evidence of the means to their freedom within Atlantic slave societies. Lisa Ze Winters contends that these representations conceal the figure's centrality to the practices and production of diaspora.
