Esta dissertação visa discutir a representação do negro em dois filmes brasileiros: Rio, Zona Norte (Nelson Pereira dos Santos, 1957) e A Grande Cidade (Carlos Diegues, 1966). Objetiva-se compreender de que modo estas narrativas fílmicas definem o lugar dos personagens negros e conjugam certas relações sociais na estrutura dramática. Nos dois filmes, a presença de personagens negros no espaço urbano do Rio de Janeiro é elemento constitutivo da diegese e revela a disposição dos diretores em abordar o tema racial, num contexto de ampliação do debate sobre a cultura brasileira, especialmente, a cultura popular. Demonstramos que a problemática racial está presente nos filmes citados, ainda que não formulada em um discurso verbal. Assim, em cada um deles, a representação do negro se articula com uma representação do popular, de forma diferente. Em Rio, Zona Norte, a incorporação do negro já demonstra tensões em uma reflexão sobre o engajamento nacionalpopular. Em A Grande Cidade estas tensões são exacerbadas em uma reflexão sobre a crise daquele engajamento.

This work discuss the representation of black Brazilians in two films: Rio, Zona Norte (Nelson Pereira dos Santos, 1957) and A Grande Cidade (Carlos Diegues, 1966). The objective is to understand how these filmic narratives define the place of black characters and combine social relations in dramatic structure. In both, the presence of black characters in urban areas of Rio de Janeiro is a element of the narrative and reveals the will of the directors to discuss the theme race in the context of the debate about Brazilian culture, especially the popular culture. We demonstrate that the racial problem is present in the films cited, though it isnt couched in verbal discourse. Thus, in each of them, the black representation is linked to a representation of popular, differently. In Rio, Zona Norte, the incorporation of the black already shows tensions in the reflection on the national popular engagement. In A Grande Cidade these tensions are exacerbated in a reflection on the crisis of that engagement.

African American Studies

Hip hop reached its thirty-fifth year of existence in 2008. Hip hop has indeed evolved into a global phenomenon. This dissertation is grounded in Afro-modern, Afrocentric and African-centered theory and utilizes textual and content analysis. This dissertation offers a panoramic view of pre-hip hop era and hip hop era icons, iconology, archetypes and aesthetics and teases out their influence on hip hop aesthetics. I identify specific figures, movements and events within the context of African American and American folk and popular culture traditions and link them to developments within hip hop culture, discourse, and aesthetics. Because hip-hop emerged as an American phenomenon, I examine pre-hip hop American popular culture in the twentieth century such as America's World's Fairs, superhero mythology, popular culture iconography, etc. and illustrate the ways in which they served as cultural, social and historical precursors to hip hop aesthetics. Chapter 1 provides an introduction, which includes a definition of terms, statement of the problem and literature review. It also offers a perfunctory discussion of hip hop as culture. Chapter 2 examines pre-hip hop era African-American and American iconography, iconology and archetypes and the subcultures that spawned them (e.g. sports culture, comic super hero narratives, westerns, and the culture of capitalism, etc.). I explore early twentieth century popular culture, iconography, and manhood, and link them to hip-hop aesthetics. Lastly, this chapter identifies Afrocentric cross-currents within hip hop culture, which I describe as the post-Afrocentric movement in hip hop culture, and illustrate the ways in which hip hop culture grappled with the efficacy and viability of Afrocentric motifs, theory and aesthetics Chapter 3 offers a comparative analysis of blues and hip hop aesthetics. I explore gender dynamics within the context of inter-genre, call-and-response between male emcees and female neo-soul artists. Chapter 4 traces the development of hip-hop aesthetics and draws on African, American and African-American cultural practices to analyze its development. I focus on early characteristics of hip-hop culture, which are foundational components of hip-hop expression such as the influence of comic book super hero narratives. Hip-hop aesthetics are an amalgamation of post-modern, post-industrial, urban blues sensibilities filtered through African-American musical traditions. I utilize Bakari Kitwana's conceptualization of the hip hop worldview as a basis for highlighting hip hop attitudes, aesthetics, and expectations. Lastly, chapter 4 expands upon previous socio-economic discussions on hip hop culture with a focus on hip hop aesthetics and expression. In chapter 5, I identify specific pre-hip hop icons and their influence on hip-hop aesthetics. I examine the significance of the selection of these icons and their relevance to hip-hop aesthetics. This chapter explores hip-hop iconography, iconology and archetypes. I explore the significance…

▼ Marks of the Fetish: Twenty-First Century (Mis)Performances of the Black Female Body considers the discursive formulations and cultural histories of contemporary narratives of black women that coalesce within popular media texts under the following five typologies: the “angry black woman,” the “nappy-headed ho,” the “good Christian girl,” the “strong black woman,” and the “baby mama.” I contend that each of these typologies is a particularized ideation of the black female body that is invested with, to invoke Hortense Spillers, semiological and ideological values whose origins are concealed by the image itself. That is, these typologies mark a fetish object—the black female body—whose history has been transformed into pathology via the very same productive logics that serve to make it articulable within the cultural marketplace. Marks of the Fetish departs from foregoing conversations about “stereotypes,” or what I refer to as “stereotype discourse,” that seek to locate pathology in certain material bodies and/or attempt to position black female iconography along a continuum of negative or positive representations. Instead, I suggest that the typologies I name are not embodied by any particular person or person, but are overlapping narratives for which particular persons stand in. As such, the operative questions I want to engage concern not whether these ideations of black female identity are “good” or “bad,” but rather, how the originary impulses that produce them continue to deceptively foreclose alternative forms of black sociality. Using theories of performative raciality in conjunction with feminist work on the performativity of the gendered body as a starting point, I propose a theoretical methodology for analyzing the constitutive contingencies of race and gender that has the potential to profoundly affect traditional understandings of the representative black body. Ultimately, I argue that the racialized gender performances, and attendant misperformances (that is, performances that deviate from hegemonic norms), of black women within public culture, including within film, television, music, the blogsphere, public and legal policies, and political and social commentary, evidence the fraught terrain of black subjectivity while simultaneously revealing the radical potentialities of difference.

▼ Myths about the racial other have been crucial to the American imaginary, particularly in the construction of white masculinity. In this dissertation, I demonstrate how and why the specter of the "rising tide of color," a term borrowed from racial anthropologist Lothrop Stoddard, resurfaces so often in American literature, film and media. The Rising Tide of Color focuses specifically on the discursive relationship between white masculinity and black masculinity. While much of the recent literature on the crisis in white masculinity reads it as unique to the Obama era (or at least the postcivil rights era), I show how it has always been intertwined with anxieties about blackness (and black masculinity in particular). The myth of the threatening black male reappears again and again in American discourse, from fears about slave insurrections to terror about miscegenation in The Birth of a Nation; from Tom Buchanan's dread of racial infiltration in The Great Gatsby, to civil rights era apprehensions about black power, to present-day anxieties about Barack Obama's legitimacy as president of the United States. Through close, contextualized readings of novels, films, music videos and media narratives, I demonstrate how panic and pushback in response to the rising tide of color has been deployed strategically to safeguard white supremacy and the American ideal of manhood. Drawing on a selection of African American scholars, authors and artists, I also show how such myths have been resisted, contested and re-imagined. The Rising Tide of Color is organized by pairing related texts and moments in American history, demonstrating how histories are layered rather than sequential and how myths – in this case, the myth of the rising tide of color – resurface in new contexts. Chapter One draws on James Baldwin's essay "Freaks and the American Ideal of Manhood" (1985) to examine how the Reagan-era ideal of aggressive, "hard-body" white masculinity was revived in popular culture and how it was challenged by the emergence of a "New Pop Cinema," characterized by queer visions of race and masculinity. Chapter Two shifts to the 1990s, analyzing how Michael Jackson's controversial short film, Black or White (1991), can be read as both a response to its cultural moment (including the brutal beating of Rodney King), as well as a revision of the American "origin story" presented in Hollywood's founding film, The Birth of a Nation (1915). Chapter Three moves to the Obama era, exploring how Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained (2012) revives many of the myths and anxieties about slave rebellion that troubled William Styron's controversial civil rights era novel, The Confessions of Nat Turner (1967). Finally, in Chapter Four, I delineate how discourse about white panic in The Great Gatsby (1925) persists in the Age of Obama, in which F. Scott Fitzgerald's Jazz Age classic has reemerged as a bestselling book and blockbuster film directed by Baz Luhrmann.

▼

The documentation of social dance within the lives of African-Canadians at mid-century is largely undocumented. This dissertation asks the question: Where did Toronto’s black population go to social dance during the 1950s and what is learned about African-Canadians via the lens of social dance? Through archival research I interrogate both sources and methodological approaches applied to social dance and/or African-Canadian historical work. I argue against reading African-Canadian documents and histories through dominant African-American historical narratives, proposing that historical and cultural overlaps are better understood in tandem with moments of departure into African-Canadian specificity. I look to Canadian contexts pertaining to social dance, legislation, trans-cultural exchange via black sleeping car porters on the train, leisure venues and music to inform close readings of photographs, newspapers and oral histories. This work emerges at the intersection of dance studies, Black Studies, performance studies, visual culture and cultural history and historiography. It proposes ways to contextualize doubt in archival research when verification is unavailable due to the systemic exclusion of African-Canadian and other marginalized bodies from Canada’s historical record. Through case studies my research looks at: photographs as a complex tool of equal rights advocacy; text-based documents that reveal the reinforcement of racist stereotypes through language about the black dancing body and repeated reports of discrimination in searches for “negro” and “dance” in mainstream newspapers; and oral histories as both invaluable and troubling documents that at once conceal and expose otherwise undocumented information pertaining to racism, social dance and African-Canadian heterogeneity. Despite shifting municipal, provincial and federal legislation in 1950s Toronto, leisure culture remained segregated. Alternative venues where African-Canadians gathered for social dancing include the Home Service Association, Universal Negro Improvement Association and University Settlement House (USH). While each of these spaces had unique mandates in terms of communities served, social dances at all three venues were attended by both black and non-black populations during the 1950s. These social dances are reported to have played otherwise inaccessible African-American blues and rock and roll music and resulted in repeated and ongoing interracial community gathering that was not otherwise reflected within mainstream culture. Social dance is proven to be a site of revelation about race, class, gender, generation and the African-Canadian population at mid-century.

▼ &ldquoBrowngirl Narratives&rdquo seeks to gain a clearer understanding of what we can learn from textual evidence about experiences of browngirls coming of age during the post-civil rights Golden Age of Hip Hop (1986-1996) by examining contemporary literature, film, social media and music produced by and about these black women. It is an inquiry into the ways in which browngirls coming of age in the United States negotiated the dominant scripts existing in their lives to craft their own stories. The aim is to utilize an interdisciplinary, black female-centered framework to fully problematize phenomena such as self-creation, empowerment, and sexual exploration in the lives of black women coming of age during 1986-1996. This study is an examination of black female bidungsromane&mdash black female cultural texts illustrating the coming of age/development processes. Additionally, it is an investigation into what we can learn about the ongoing individuation processes for post-civil rights browngirls by engaging various texts. This project shows pieces of their narrative by examining hidden scripts amongst Ntozake Shange's choreopoem, for colored girls who have considered suicide| when the rainbow is enuf; Tyler Perry's feature film adaptation, For Colored Girls and the dialogue which surfaced as a result; the life, work and politics of artist Erykah Badu, and; social media texts such as blogs. The selected narrative texts can be unpacked and analyzed using the bildungsroman as a lens to view concepts of self-discovery – &ldquotracing the development of complex and multidimensional&rdquo browngirls, exploring &ldquowho she is and how she became that way.&rdquo What do these stories reveal about the journey toward a self-defined identity for browngirls marginalized by race, gender, class and sexuality coming of age in the mid-1980s to mid-1990s? What can the cultural texts tell us about how their experiences growing up during this particular period shape their sense of love relationships, family, community, and the self? The research discloses important overlooked narratives&mdash &ldquomeaningful and endearing stories about their experiences that are not solely focused on heterosexual romance&rdquo&mdashalong with hidden transcripts or subtexts that reveal important phenomena for this particular group of women regarding identity construction, black female representation and sexuality.

Thesis Ph. D. Michigan State University. African American and African Studies 2019.

At the intersection of social media, a trend in organic products, and an interest in do-it-yourself culture, the late 2000s opened a space for many Black American women to stop chemically straightening their hair via "relaxers" and begin to wear their hair natural-resulting in an Internet-based cultural phenomenon known as the "natural hair movement." Within this context, conversations around beauty standards, hair politics, and Black women's embodiment have flourished within the public sphere, largely through YouTube, social media, and websites. My project maps these conversations, by exploring contemporary expressions of Black women's natural hair within cultural production. Using textual and content analysis, I investigate various sites of inquiry: natural hair product advertisements and internet representations, as well as the ways hair texture is evoked in recent song lyrics, filmic scenes, and non-fiction prose by Black women. Each of these "hair moments" offers a complex articulation of the ways Black women experience, share, and negotiate the socio-historically fraught terrain that is racialized body politics and "beauty" as a construct. My project is guided by the following research question: How are Black women utilizing the context of the natural hair movement to (re)define, (re)shape, and (de/re)construct meanings of beauty and Black womanhood? Using an embodied Black feminist framework, I argue that at the intersection of both (re)presentations of natural hair and uses of social/new media, we find new possibilities, intimacies, (re)negotiations, and (re)articulations of both Black women's embodiment and the potentiality of "beauty" as a construct. Ultimately, the project uses hair as a way to underscore the agency within Black women's uses and understandings of their bodies, in a cultural landscape that constantly tries to tell them who and what they are.

▼ Image Breakers, Image Makers: Producing Race, America, and Television foregrounds my positionalities as a scholar and as a creative artist/practitioner to conduct an unprecedented, ethnographic, and longitudinal cultural study about television and the select few writers and producers who actually “make” television. I examine the spaces and processes of cultural production in order to investigate the hidden relationship between racial formation, Black representation, and television production. More specifically, I focus on the veiled process of script creation, and its culture of production as a performative space with national and global implications for the images that can make, break, construct, and/or disrupt our racialized common sense. Employing an interdisciplinary framework that combines critical ethnography, cultural analysis, and performance theory my dissertation posits television production as a crucial “pre-performance” space and process where racial meaning enters into filmed texts, gains a visual and discursive materiality, and becomes a contested but indelible part of what we then call Black representation. Thus, I make a decisive shift in the scholarship on media and Black representation that moves the critique from the hypervisible “artifact” of popular culture to the difficult to access and often invisible “creation” of popular culture. In so doing I also make an argument for the critical necessity of the scholar-artist and artist-scholar to the project of knowledge production. ❧ Taking the NAACP’s historical focus on Black representation in film and television as a crucial but under examined prompt, Image Breakers, Image Makers begins by situating the political ramifications of African-American television writer hiring practices within the larger labor practices of the entertainment industry. It then analyzes the elements of production that regulate if, when, how, and what writers are allowed to create and how those elements combine to become a process of racialization. Engaging with a diverse array of scholars in media studies, performance studies, and African-American studies, Image Breakers, Image Makers complicates what I call the frustration of Black representation and centers the day to day struggle for what I call a non-comic Blackness. I discuss the visibility of the performer’s agency, but privilege the invisibility of television writer-producers and their role in creating and resisting the materiality of racial performativity. Ultimately, this project reveals how Blackness is contested by television practitioners, and suggests how audiences are primed to ignore race yet make racial sense of images that have, to a large degree, already been constructed and decoded for them.
