From the Harlem and Southern Renaissances to postcolonial writing in the Caribbean, Race and New Modernisms introduces and critically explores key issues and debates on race and ethnicity in the study of transnational modernism today.

Topics covered include:

- Key terms and concepts in scholarly discussions of race and ethnicity
- European modernism and cultural appropriation
- Modernism, colonialism, and empire
- Southern and Harlem Renaissances
- Social movements and popular cultures in the modernist period

Covering writers and artists such as Josephine Baker, W.E.B. Du Bois, T.S. Eliot, William Faulkner, Marcus Garvey, Édouard Glissant, Ernest Hemingway, Zora Neale Hurston, Claude McKay, and Paul Robeson, the book considers the legacy of modernist discussions of race in twenty-first century movements such as Black Lives Matter.
