Performing Whiteness crosses the boundaries of film study to explore images of the white body in relation to recent theoretical perspectives on whiteness. Drawing on such diverse critical methodologies as postcolonial studies, feminist film criticism, anthropology, and phenomenology, Gwendolyn Audrey Foster examines a wide variety of films from early cinema to the present day in order to explore the ways in which American cinema imposes whiteness as a cultural norm, even as it exposes its inherent instability. In discussions that range from The Philadelphia Story to Attack of the 50 Foot Woman, Foster shows that, though American cinema is an all-white construct, there exists the possibility of a healthy resistance to cultural norms of race, gender, sexuality, and class.

Planet of the apes as American myth
This book is set on a main topic which is racism, but this book talks about the people that experienced and had to go through the racism time which is back in 1900's.
Usually each chapter would talk about a specific person or people and what happen to them in their life involving racism. And what they did or would have done to prevent racism from happening or stop the separation from colored people to white people.
About racism in this book is that white and colored people had to be separated in many different or specific places. Like whites had to go to the white school and they would have great conditions for their school and had more opportunities in life and education. For colored people it is the opposite for them, they have bad conditions, they are not treated respectfully or not treated fairly.
This book will be good for a person that likes to read about racism of course, but for a person who wants to know about the past and what or who changed this world into a better place.
