>>Marco Abel:
>>New Black Cinema of the 80s/90s (if possible, with some emphasis on Lee)
Browse through the following texts:
1) Friedman, Lester D., ed. Unspeakable Images: Ethnicity and
American Cinema. Urbana: U of Illinois P, 1991.
2) Shohat, Ella, and Robert Stam. Unthinking Eurocentrism:
Multiculturalism and the Media. London: Routledge, 1994.
And, as companion pieces to male-dominated NBC, I suggest
three films by independent African-American female directors and an
essay on all three films:
Hair Piece: A Film for Nappy Headed People (1985), Ayoka Chenzira, USA (10')
Illusions (1981), Julie Dash, USA (34')
Losing Ground (1982), Kathleen Collins, USA (86')
Gibson-Hudson, Gloria. "Aspects of Black Feminist Cultural Ideology
in Films by Black Women Independent Artists." Multiple Voices in
Feminist Film Criticism. Eds. Diane Carson, Linda Dittmar, and
Janice R. Welsch. Minneapolis: U of Minnesota P, 1994. 365-379.
Moreover, I need some screenings and readings suggestions for
a class I will teach this Fall: "Film and Television of the 1980s."
Particularly about the TV part. Thanks.
Gloria Monti
