"Our Blood is a highly original, inventive, and provocative book that elucidates a new sociological concept that the authors have coined, “heritas.” It critiques essentialist and reductionist categorizations of identity, rather emphasizing the invention of race, and capacities to convert between religions and political traditions, as well as the formation of attachments to places and territorial identities where there is no natural blood connection. As such, Our Blood is an important and timely corrective to the ways in which identity (and notions of blood) are frequently essentialized and deployed in politics today."
