Description

Explore the evolution of African American representation in film with Post-Soul Black Cinema: Discontinuities, Innovations and Breakpoints, 1970-1995. This academic work from Routledge examines how the cinematic image of African Americans became a fixed concept governed by strict rules of depiction. It looks at the written and unwritten rules that shaped how Black characters were portrayed on screen for decades. This study investigates the limitations of under-informed images and how these depictions remained unchallenged until shifts in the American film industry occurred. By analyzing the change in power relations, the text explains how Black filmmakers gained the opportunity to tell stories from an informed position. It is an essential resource for those studying the history and criticism of film, specifically regarding the transformations in Black cinematic storytelling and the structural changes that allowed for new perspectives.
