PBS and Henry Louis Gates: A Four Part Series About Blacks in Latin America
Having the heard this interesting interview on NPR, I was glad to see our friends at Guanabee tip readers to the PBS series, Black in Latin America, produced and hosted by Harvard Scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. The series, as well as the interview, is a compelling conversation on perceptions of race about Latin Americans and the growing Hispanic population here in the States.

Yet Another Classic American Comics Introduction to the History of Racialized Representation in America or Golden Age Anthropology 101
I love classic comics. I loathe what comics did to my mind.
There's my problem--the technicolor paper fantasy worlds of comics provided and provide a world of escape and entertainment; but this entertainment trains the mind to move/think/react/judge/hate/love/lust in specific ways that are inescapable (Warner Brother's cartoons, documented in the Speedy Gonzales chapter of Tex[t]-Mex, work in a similar fashion--I love them, too.).
In any event, blogger at Golden Age Comic Book Stories does a madly talented job curating provocative representations of covers (and sometimes stories) from the comic book golden age... Here are some, just posted in three categories that I have devised: World Cultures; Knowing the Enemy; and, because you've asked for it, another installment of Bizarre Caucasians in Print.

Ethnic Mannequins: Pull the Tongue and More!!!
Oops! I forgot a key part of the paper "toy." Yikes!
original posting: June 19, 2008
When it comes to the history of ethnic figuration in popular culture ephemera, it is hard to imagine a better source in terms of range and quality than Pillpat's on Flickr. Two recent finds that should end up in cutting edge research in ethnic or cultural studies:
Heritage Auctions comes close as well:
