About this audiobook

Color is not decoration — it is infrastructure. Every pigment that has ever crossed a border carried ideology with it, and the borders it drew are still standing. The Geography of Color maps the physical, political, and neural territory that hue has conquered across human civilization, tracing how empires moved through ochre and indigo before they moved through steel. Somewhere between the anthropology and the neuroscience is the thing no one says plainly: your perception is a colonial artifact.
