About the book

Explores a little known branch of the African Diaspora - Afro-Mexicans - and discusses their conditions of arrival and establishment in Mexico within the context of Spanish colonialism and the socioracial terms that are the focus of the main study: indio, blanco, nero and moreno. These terms are part of daily life in Mexico, used in variable ways as tags of social identity.
