Set on Idan Hayosh's peculiar Instagram page of women holding dead fish, The Instagram Archipelago is a conversation with contemporary culture's logics of gender and race. Working through recent thinking in Black studies and Hayosh's satirical images, Elliot C. Mason presents the aesthetics of capitalism as a sea that makes everything the same, turning the world into a single form. The Instagram Archipelago brings radical antiracist and feminist scholarship to a general audience, applying a model of thinking beyond gender and race to the strange world of online fishing photos. This funny and fascinating book moves past the liberal celebration of gender and race, towards a tiny island of resistance in a growing archipelago.
