Abstract

Global popular culture is an increasingly significant site for the negotiation of identities. At Fernwood High School (a pseudonym), an urban, multiracial school in Durban, South Africa, the global popular is the fulcrum for the production of race and racial politics among students. Students' affective investments in popular culture become racialized, contextualized within the forces of contemporary South Africa, and intertwined with local racial and class dynamics. Using ethnographic examples based on a year-long case study, I demonstrate how popular culture is the ground for racial conflict, moments and spaces of racial connection, and the shifting of racial alhances. An analysis of popular culture's role in youths' identities can point to new formations and meanings of race, racial identities and racial relations.
