  • Blackkklansman and Postcolonial Studies in the EFL Classroom
    Independent Project, 15 credits “Dis joint is based upon some fo’ real, fo’ real sh*t” Challenging perspectives on race and ethnicity by incorporating Spike Lee’s movie BlacKkKlansman and postcolonial studies in the EFL classroom Author: Sofija Stanic Supervisor: Anna Greek Examiner: Anne Holm Term: HT19 Subject: English Level: Bachelor Course code: 2ENÄ2E Abstract This essay argues for the benefits of incorporating Spike Lee’s film BlacKkKlansman and discussions of postcolonialism in the Swedish upper secondary EFL classroom in order to challenge students’ perspectives on race and ethnicity. The film BlacKkKlansman by Spike Lee is a work that challenges not only American history but also the perspectives of black and white people in contemporary society. Discussing the white and black characters and the social criticism in the movie with students in the English classroom may encourage them to be more open-minded and aware of global political and social issues. Key words Postcolonial criticism; BlacKkKlansman; racial issues; racism; EFL classroom; fundamental values; stereotypes Thanks To my supervisor Anna Greek, thank you for all your kind support and help during the writing of this essay, you helped spark my interest for the subject. Table of contents Abstract 2 1 Introduction 1 2 Postcolonialism 4 2.1 Overview 4 2.2 Postcolonial Criticism and Literature Didactical Theory 9 3 Spike Lee’s BlacKkKlansman 13 3.1 The Depiction of Blackness and Whiteness 13 3.2 Connections to the Trump-Era 18 3.3 Postcolonial criticism and BlacKkKlansman in the EFL Classroom 21 4 Conclusion 25 Works Cited 1 1 Introduction The movie BlacKkKlansman from 2018, directed by Spike Lee, is a story set in the early 1970s which revolves around the protagonist Ron Stallworth who becomes the first African American police officer in the Colorado Springs police force.

  • Appendix 01. Synopsis of Blackkklansman Film the Film
    Appendix 01. Synopsis of BlacKkKlansman Film The film starts with a small video of a battlefield lying everywhere with the bodies of Confederate soldiers as some try to support those injured and others weep over the dead. This then switches to another video by Dr. Kennebrew Beauregard (Alec Baldwin), who launches into a racial tirade about how African Americans take hold of the country and cause problems for white Protestant Americans. Colorado Springs, CO. 1979 John David Washington (Ron Stallworth) arrives at the local police station. Chief Bridges (Robert John Burke) and Mr. Turrerntine (Isiah Whitlock, Jr.) interview him about whether or not he should be eligible on the team. I want to know how Ron would respond if a white officer were to bully him, considering the current social and political environment surrounding African Americans, and Ron says he 'd turn the other cheek if he has to. Ron is then put on duty as the first black officer. The first task Ron does is to work inside the filing department. One Patrolman named Andy Landers (Frederick Weller) antagonizes him. Ron then goes to Bridges and asks to put him on an assignment to get out in the field, but Bridges refuses his application. Bridges later, though, changes his mind and wants to bring Ron to a Black Panther meeting to see if they intend on radicalizing themselves. Stokely Carmichael (Corey Hawkins), a popular activist, is said to speak there. Bridges has Flip Zimmerman (Adam Driver) detectives and Jimmy Creek (Michael Buscemi) sit in while Ron enters with a cable.

Neo-Brechtian theory has been influential in this regard, as many of Brecht’s theories regarding the epic theatre were incorporated into film theory in the 1970s, just as the field was being formalised as an academic discipline.

In fact, Birmingham earned the nickname “Bombingham” for the 50 explosions in the city between 1947 and 1965. (One neighborhood was targeted so often it was nicknamed Dynamite Hill.) The bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church was the third bombing in 11 days following a federal court order that mandated integration of Alabama schools.

  • Blackkklansman
    BlacKkKlansman crédits photos : IMDb / allociné Ma critique Voici incontestablement un film qui fera date dans la carrière de Spike Lee qui, fidèle à la mission qu'il s'est assignée à ses débuts, espère ouvrir les yeux et éveiller la conscience des spectateurs dans un film qui réussit le pari d'être à la fois un ''buddy cop comedy'' et un film coup de poing. En bref : on rit beaucoup, jaune parfois, et à la fin on pleure. Fabuleux travail des acteurs (Adam Driver dévoile à nouveau l'étendue de son talent), quelques travellings et plans remarquables (notamment ce face à face entre Ron et la cible utilisée par les membres du KKK), bande son 1970s délicieuse, grain incomparable du 35 mm argentique, réalisation méticuleuse et fouillée dans laquelle rien n'est laissé au hasard : un vrai régal, on ne voit pas le temps passer. Certaines scènes sont à la limite du burlesque, résolument géniales, et pourtant le film s'attaque à un sujet sérieux et met en lumière l'importance de l'appartenance culturelle et communautaire aux USA, questionnant les fondements mêmes de l'identité américaine. Les ''God bless white America'' du KKK s'opposent aux ''Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud'' de James Brown dans un face à face sans concession possible tant les positions des uns et des autres semblent irréconciliables. Les références culturelles et historiques sont nombreuses (les films Gone with the Wind et Birth of a Nation, le lynchage de Jesse Washington raconté par Harry Belafonte, les idées de W.E.B.
