This series, beginning with the Bela Lugosi horror classic White Zombie (1932), will chart the zombie’s propensity to mirror not just the horror of imperialism but also a multitude of its anxieties, from miscegenation to war. But even as the zombie over the years migrated away from its Black origins, the figure has struggled to become fully raceless or to shed its roots in imperialistic exploits. Guest programmed by Kelli Weston.
