— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Taking a step toward helping all Americans realize equality, BLACK LIBERATION AND THE AMERICAN DREAM concentrates on the connections between racial justice and economic justice, while exploring the dynamic intersections of race, class, and gender.

John Strausbaugh
Black Like You: Blackface, Whiteface, Insult &, Imitation in American Popular Culture

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A refreshingly clearheaded and taboo-breaking look at race in America reveals our culture as neither Black nor White nor Other, but a mix-a mongrel. Black Like You is an erudite and entertaining exploration of race relations in American popular culture. Particularly compelling is the author`s ability to tackle blackface--a strange, often scandalous, and now taboo entertainment. Although blackface performance came to be denounced as purely racist mockery, and shamefacedly erased from most modern accounts of American cultural history, Strausbaugh shows that, nevertheless, its impact has been deep and longlasting. The influence of blackface can be seen in rock and roll and hip-hop, in vaudeville, Broadway, and drag performances, in Mark Twain and `gangsta lit`, in the earliest filmstrips and Hollywood`s 2004 White Chicks , on radio and television, in advertising and product marketing, and even in the way Americans speak. With remarkable common sense and… [detailed...]

Black Maria : Poems Produced and Directed by

Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionKevin Young follows his acclaimed exploration of the blues in Jelly Roll with another playful riff on a vital art form, giving us a film noir in verse. Black Maria –the title is a slang term for a police van as well as a hearse–is a twisting tale of suspicion, passion, mystery, and the city. Young channels the world of detective movies, picking up its lingo and dark glamour in five “reels” of poetry–the adventures of a “soft-boiled” private eye, known as A.K.A. Jones, and an ingenue turned femme fatale, Delilah Redbone, who’s come to town from down south (“Mama bent till dark / tending rows to send / Me to school . . . I wanted / To head on &, hitch . . . strike it / Big”). We follow Jones and Delilah through a maze of aliases and ambushes, sex and suspicions, fast talk and hard luck, in Shadowtown where noir characters abound. The Killer, The Gunsel, The Hack, The Director, The Champ, and The… [detailed...]
