"The White Indians of Mexican Cinema offers a compelling, original intervention that rightly foregrounds the visual construction of race as a key lens through which to understand Mexican cinema. García Blizzard's clear, crisp prose makes this text accessible to a range of readers, from students to seasoned experts. This book will be of broad interest to scholars of race, cinema and Mexican studies." — Bulletin of Spanish Visual Studies"Mónica García Blizzard's first book is a rich and revelatory project … This text is useful for Latin American and Anglophone scholars who work at the intersection of race, ethnicity, gender, and film studies, as the book offers a significant sociohistorical contextualization of the racialized and gendered patterns of colonial power in Mexican cinema." — Film Quarterly"Well written, tightly argued, and thoroughly researched, The White Indians of Mexican Cinema promises to make a lively and important contribution to studies of Indigenous representation in Mexican cinema." — Dolores Tierney, author of New Transnationalisms in Contemporary Latin American Cinemas
