Sarah Lewis unearths the critical moment when Americans were confronted with the fictions shoring up the nation’s racial regime and learned to disregard them. When popular nineteenth-century images of the Caucasus proved the lie of white supremacy, a new visual regime arose to suppress the evidence of the incoherence of racial order.
