Its aim is to reveal the discursive and institutional constraints that have shaped their existence in the host country. This research contends that these individuals are performing the identities that have been assigned to their skin color through the process of ‘incorporation’. The arguments supporting this claim are based on the notion of Performativity designed by Judith Butler, its intersections with race and gender, Frantz Fanon's insights on Black subjectivity, and on Raewyn Connell's concept of Hegemonic Masculinity.
