Here's a short thread on theories of race and racism in Foucault. I'll start with the (English) sources of his ideas on race, and then provide a list of articles (no books) that provide interpretation. Feel free to add if you have other sources.
Foucault started to develop his ideas on race and racism in his 1974-75 lectures (Abnormal), but only in the last lecture.

The 1975-76 lectures (Society Must be Defended) provide his most detailed discussion of race and racism:

Until these lectures were published, and later translated, the only published work in which Foucault discussed race and racism was Vol 1 of the History of Sexuality:

And so now, on to articles discussing Foucault's work on race and racism. (As an aside, although Ann Stoler had been interpreting these ideas since the mid 1990s, all the articles I could find post-date the English publication of his 1975-76 lectures).
