With sharp insight, humor, and heart, Abdurraqib examines how Black performance happens in specific moments in time and space--midcentury Paris, the moon, or a cramped living room in Columbus, Ohio. At the outset of this project, Abdurraqib became fascinated with clips of Black minstrel entertainers like William Henry Lane, better known as Master Juba. Knowing there was something more complicated and deep-seated in the history and legacy of minstrelsy, Abdurraqib uncovered questions and tensions that help to reveal how Black performance pervades all areas of American society. Abdurraqib's prose is entrancing and fluid as he leads us along the links in his remarkable trains of thought. A Little Devil in America considers, critiques, and praises performance in music, sports, writing, comedy, grief, games, and love"-- $c Provided by publisher. 586 $a Carnegie Medal, Nonfiction, 2022 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a African Americans in the performing arts. 650 0 $a American literature $x History and criticism. $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Race identity. 651 0 $a United States $x Race relations. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Intellectual life. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Social conditions. 650 6 $a Noirs ameÌricains dans les arts du spectacle. 650 6 $a Noirs ameÌricains $x IdentiteÌ ethnique. 651 6 $a EÌtats-Unis $x Relations raciales. 650 6 $a Noirs ameÌricains $x Vie intellectuelle. 650 6 $a Noirs ameÌricains $x Conditions sociales. 650 7 $a African Americans in the performing arts. $2 cct 650 7 $a American literature $x African American authors. $2 cct 650 7 $a African Americans $x Race identity. $2 cct 650 7 $a African Americans $x Intellectual life. $2 cct 650 7 $a African Americans $x Social conditions. $2 cct 650 7 $a Race relations. $2 cct 651 7 $a United States $x Race relations. $2 cct 651 7 $a United States. $2 cct 650 7 $a African Americans in the performing arts $2 fast 650 7 $a African Americans $x Intellectual life $2 fast 650 7 $a African Americans $x Race identity $2 fast 650 7 $a African Americans $x Social conditions $2 fast 650 7 $a American literature $x African American authors $2 fast 650 7 $a Race relations $2 fast 651 7 $a United States $2 fast 650 7 $a African Americans in the performing arts. $2 sears 650 7 $a American literature $x African American authors. $2 sears 650 7 $a African Americans $x Race identity. $2 sears 650 7 $a African Americans $x Intellectual life. $2 sears 650 7 $a African Americans $x Social conditions. $2 sears 651 7 $a United States $x Race relations. $2 sears 655 7 $a Informational works $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast 655 7 $a Informational works. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Documents d'information. $2 rvmgf 776 08 $i Online version: $a Abdurraqib, Hanif, 1983- $t Little devil in America $d New York : Random House, 2021. $z 9781984801210 $w (DLC) 2020023087 941 $a 1 $n 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20240117080622.0 $n 10 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A1C0ED92B53611EEB9FA144B1F3FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
