While Hark dramatically complicates the male body as a signifying field‚ Robyn Wiegman transforms the feminist paradigm of the "specular colonization" (176) of the female body from an issue of gender to one of race‚ in which the black male becomes constructed as feminine‚ suggesting "not simply an aversion to racial difference but a profound attempt to negate masculine sameness‚ a sameness so terrifying to the cultural position of the white masculine that only castration
