Romance and Rights
Romance and Rights: The Politics of Interracial Intimacy, 1945–1954 studies the meaning of interracial romance, love, and sex in the ten years after World War II. How was interracial romance treated in popular culture by civil rights leaders, African American soldiers, and white segregationists? Previous studies focus on the period beginning in 1967 when the Supreme Court overturned the last state anti-miscegenation law (Loving v. Virginia). Lubin's study, however, suggests that we cannot fully understand contemporary debates about “hybridity,” or mixed-race identity, without first comprehending how WWII changed the terrain. The book focuses on the years immediately after the war, when...
Artists To Look Out For
Artists To Look Out For is a printed catalog that features nearly 100 emerging artists from all over the world. For our first issue, hundreds of artists applied for inclusion, and we narrowed it down to the absolute best emerging artists we could find.

Reel to Real
A tragic accident decimates the family of Leon Schmutz, leaving him captured in the throes of Retrograde Amnesia, and deprived of any recollection of his life prior to the incident. With no one to remind him about his past, Leon struggles to find himself and his place in the world. As he searches for his past, he begins to build a life for himself in the present. He discovers a long-lost family member, a small group of friends, and maybe even love. But when his desperate search for answers leads him to an extraordinary box of home movies, the new life he’s building threatens to unravel. Seven movies show seven events—events Leon will physically experience again as he watches each film. Each experience brings with it a consequence. Each consequence causes loved ones to become more and more concerned, believing these Kodak moments to be self-inflicted, and questioning Leon’s intentions, as well as his mental health. Dare they intervene? As Leon desperately tries to make them understand, he fights to keep his former self in the past and move forward with his newfound identity.
Racial Union
In November 2001, the state of Alabama opened a referendum on its long-standing constitutional prohibition against interracial marriage. A bill on the state ballot offered the opportunity to relegate the state's antimiscegenation law to the dustbin of history. The measure passed, but the margin was alarmingly slim: more than half a million voters, 40 percent of those who went to the polls, voted to retain a racist and constitutionally untenable law. Julie Novkov's Racial Union explains how and why, nearly forty years after the height of the civil rights movement, Alabama struggled to repeal its prohibition against interracial marriage---the last state in the Union to do so. Novkov's compelli...
