Description

Explore the formative years of the twentieth century through the lens of cinema. This Routledge publication examines the long history of the struggle for Black representation in American media. During a period of massive societal change, movies acted as a reflection of the shifting American landscape. While early cinema often relied on nineteenth-century theatrical conventions like blackface minstrelsy and the Uncle Tom Show traditions to cast Black actors in demeaning caricatures, this book looks at the alternative. It focuses on the emergence of race films, which provided a different cinematic path. This text is an essential resource for those studying how early film production and technology intersected with social history and the fight against marginalization in the early motion picture industry.

Key Features

Explores the distinction between mainstream caricatures and the emergence of race films.

Offers scholarly insights into the evolution of film production and social history.
