“Performing Postracialism” by Philip S.S. Howard explores blackface in Canada, arguing it’s not just racial misrepresentation but a reflection of antiblackness in the nation and its educational institutions. The book suggests that blackface occurrences in universities are not accidental and are often defended to protect whiteness. It uses interviews and focus groups with university students, faculty, administrators, and Black student associations to examine blackface experiences and the efforts made to challenge it.
