Thesis (Ph.D.)--Northwestern University, 2015.

This dissertation analyzes and theorizes strategic performances of racial ambiguity as important sites of cultural labor across a shifting historical terrain of twentieth-century racial formation and governance in the white settler colonies of Canada and U.S.-America. Engaging theories of racial performance and performativity, the project investigates racial ambiguity as a product of white settler colonial intimate knowledge. Subsequently, I advance a theorization of the analytic I call "the racial ambiguity act," a tactic of aesthetic performance that obfuscates settler colonial projections of racial ambiguity. Assembling and analyzing an archive of cultural performance that spans significant moments of settler colonial national reinvention, I follow three performers who negotiate imposed inclusion into the settler polity through various public and performative strategies of racial ambiguity: Pauline Johnson (1861-1913), Eartha Kitt (1927-2008), and Gina Osterloh (1973-). Each performer advances a different tactic of ambiguity in transitional moments of national crisis and consolidation where racial management vis-a-vis inclusion plays a part, such as Canadian confederation, Cold War U.S.-America, and neoliberal North America.

520 $a Throughout this dissertation, I suggest that racial ambiguity acts function as critical memory practices, recording and transmitting anti-assimilationist acts of indigenous and racialized diasporic knowledge and memory that unsettle, revise, and generally "bring trouble" to longstanding white settler colonial myths of naturalized national belonging and justified sovereign rule. Overall, I argue that the analytic of the racial ambiguity act is an important contribution to comparative analyses of race and racism that foreground racial inclusion as a significant site of social and political regulation.
