The films in this volume are critically assessed as rhetorical texts using various aspects and components of critical race theory, recognizing that race and racism are intricately ingrained in American society. Contributors argue that by viewing and evaluating culture-centered films--often centered around race--and critically analyzing them, faculty and students can promote the opportunity for genuine open discussions about race, racism, and race relations in the United States, specifically in the higher education classroom. Scholars of film studies, media studies, race studies, and education will find this book particularly useful"--Back cover. 650 0 $a Race in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Race relations in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Racism in motion pictures. 700 1 $a Hamlet, Janice D., $e editor. 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220602021132.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317022404.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=45A9C8A05D1D11EA9B49BA2197128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
