The Cinema of Social Death - Blackhood At-Large

This book demonstrates how cinematic treatments of blackness which offer explicit counter-narratives to society's deep-seated racist culture fail to escape the trappings of antiblackness and the basic antagonistic relationship between black people and the modern world and are instead features of it-all the while posing as anti-racist.
