DNA and the Politics of Identity
DNA has become a tool for determining identity, but its interpretation and discussion influence how we think about identity. The podcast explores the ways in which DNA is used to reinforce hierarchies and systems of division. The essay argues that race is emergent and dynamic, and that identity is complex and intertwined with the living world. By deconstructing old stories of colorism and embracing the monstrous and the in-between, we are urged to rethink and remake how we construct identity and race.
