This study examines the representations of U.S. blackness in contemporary Germany. It is concerned with how race and national belonging are reflected in nationally circulating German publications, especially after reunification. Studies abound on the shared histories between Germany and the United States in relation to immigration, politics, economics, and even film, television, and music, yet those studies often do not address the significant role that race has played in these histories. Although race often is excepted from those accounts, race is not an exception.

520 $a This study examines the representations of U.S. blackness in contemporary Germany. It is concerned with how race and national belonging are reflected in nationally circulating German publications, especially after reunification. Studies abound on the shared histories between Germany and the United States in relation to immigration, politics, economics, and even film, television, and music, yet those studies often do not address the significant role that race has played in these histories. Although race often is excepted from those accounts, race is not an exception.
520 $a This study combines rhetorical theory and critical race theory in order to make visible the methods by which racial bias and stereotypes are rendered invisible in contemporary culture. Using primarily Stern and Der Spiegel news magazines, this study analyzes images of U.S. blackness---especially those associated with athletics, music, and politics---and details the various ways that images reinforce or reference cultural and racial stereotypes about blackness. Like the United States, Germany has had to confront and correct its state-sanctioned racism against its minority populations, and like the United States, Germany has witnessed a social championing of colorblindness that purports to be unconcerned with race even as racial Others are problematically represented. Images of U.S. blackness as they appear in Germany are particularly important as they highlight the shared perceptions of blackness between Germany and the United States and lay bare the means by which racial bias is not an individual, or purely historical, or country-specific problem. Instead, racial stereotypes are globally circulating, contemporary, and multilingual.
520 $a This is, first and foremost, a rhetorical study of images that uses critical race theory to advance its major argument, but it also is a study of transnational race and national belonging that advances the notion that images of People of Color must be examined for what histories they recall and what biases they engender as well as what they purport to portray.
