Robert Stam is Professor of Cinema Studies at New York University. He is the author of Subversive Pleasures and coauthor of Unthinking Eurocentrism: Multiculturalism and the Media, and Brazilian Cinema.
"Tropical Multiculturalism establishes Robert Stam as the foremost
authority on the intersection of race, culture, and film in Brazil.
Some think of blacks in Brazilian film as samba and sound but Stam
liberates us all with a gorgeously argued relational text that is
destined to become a classic in film criticism."—Robert Farris
Thompson, Yale University
"With Tropical Multiculturalism, Robert Stam—one of the most
sophisticated theorists of contemporary cultural
representations—provides a much needed, historicized model for the
analysis of non-European and Afro-diasporic cinemas and
cultures."—Monthia Diawara, New York University
