At Wichita State University’s Ulrich Museum, from September 16 to December 16, 2012, these questions were addressed in an exhibition of work celebrating the centenary of Gordon Parks’s 1912 birth. Titled “The Hard Kind of Courage: Gordon Parks and the Photography of the Civil Rights Era,” this series of deeply profound images offered visual testimony to the heart-rending but courageous sacrifices made by Freedom Riders, the bombing victims Wat the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, the energized protesters at the Great March on Washington, and other participants in the movement. “Photographers of the era,” the exhibition demonstrated, “were integral to advancing the movement by documenting the public and private acts of racial discrimination.”1 Their images succeeded in capturing the strength, fortitude, resiliency, determination, and, most of all, the love of those who dared to step out on faith and stare down physical abuse and death. It is no small thing that all this was done amidst the challenges of being a black artist or writer seeking self-actualization in a racially charged era.

  • A Critical Analysis of the Black President in Film and Television
    “WELL, IT IS BECAUSE HE’S BLACK”: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE BLACK PRESIDENT IN FILM AND TELEVISION Phillip Lamarr Cunningham A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2011 Committee: Dr. Angela M. Nelson, Advisor Dr. Ashutosh Sohoni Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Michael Butterworth Dr. Susana Peña Dr. Maisha Wester © 2011 Phillip Lamarr Cunningham All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Angela Nelson, Ph.D., Advisor With the election of the United States’ first black president Barack Obama, scholars have begun to examine the myriad of ways Obama has been represented in popular culture. However, before Obama’s election, a black American president had already appeared in popular culture, especially in comedic and sci-fi/disaster films and television series. Thus far, scholars have tread lightly on fictional black presidents in popular culture; however, those who have tend to suggest that these presidents—and the apparent unimportance of their race in these films—are evidence of the post-racial nature of these texts. However, this dissertation argues the contrary. This study’s contention is that, though the black president appears in films and televisions series in which his presidency is presented as evidence of a post-racial America, he actually fails to transcend race. Instead, these black cinematic presidents reaffirm race’s primacy in American culture through consistent portrayals and continued involvement in comedies and disasters. In order to support these assertions, this study first constructs a critical history of the fears of a black presidency, tracing those fears from this nation’s formative years to the present.

  • Articles 2015 年 ６ 月 第 48 巻
    日本大学生産工学部研究報告Ｂ Articles 2015 年 ６ 月 第 48 巻 Wright and Hughes: Chicago and Two Major African American Writers Toru KIUCHI＊ and Noboru FUKUSHIMA＊ （Received December 16, 2014） Abstract The Chicago Renaissance has long been considered a less important literary movement for American modernism than the Harlem Renaissance. The differences between the two movements have to do not only with history, but with aesthetics. While the Harlem Renaissance began in the 1920s—flourishing during the decade, but fading during the 30s in the throes of the Depression—the Chicago Renaissance had its origin in the turn of the nineteenth century, from 1890 to 1920, gathering momentum in the 30s, and paving the way for modern and postmodern realism in American literature ever since. Theodore Dreiser was the leader for the first period of the movement, and Richard Wright was the most influential figure for the second period. The first section of this article will examine not only the continuity that existed between the two periods in the writers’ worldviews but also the techniques they shared. To portray Chicago as a modern, spacious, cosmopolitan city, the writers of the Chicago Renaissance sought ways to reject traditional subject matter and form. The new style of writing yielded the development of a distinct cultural aesthetic that reflected ethnically diverse sentiments and aspirations. The panel discussion will focus on the fact that while the Harlem Renaissance was dominated by African American writers, the Chicago Renaissance thrived on the interactions between African and European American writers. Much like modern jazz, writings in the Chicago Renaissance became the hybrid, cross-cultural product of black and white Americans.

  • “Me and My Chauffeur Blues”—Memphis Minnie (1941) Added to the National Registry: 2019 Essay by Paul Garon (Guest Post)*
    “Me and My Chauffeur Blues”—Memphis Minnie (1941) Added to the National Registry: 2019 Essay by Paul Garon (guest post)* Memphis Minnie By the early 1940s, when Memphis Minnie cut her hit song, the African American music tradition of the blues, which had arisen in the early 1920s, was still going strong. Within that tradition, Minnie had developed a reputation as a stunning and popular blues entertainer. Her newest hit, “Me and My Chauffeur Blues,” recorded May 21, 1941, used the tune of “Good Morning School Girl,” cut in 1937 by Sonny Boy (John Lee) Williamson. She revitalized the melody, creating a song that Langston Hughes would go on to later call one of his favorites. By that time, for years, record companies who recorded blues singers like Sonny Boy and Memphis Minnie had been releasing material marketed to African Americans on special numerical “race” series. This special numbering helped to point the dealers toward their target audience. Minnie’s, and her husband Joe McCoy’s, early records were issued on three different labels’ race series: Columbia’s 13/14000 series; Vocalion’s1000 series and Decca 7000 series, where the couple’s last duets would be issued. But Memphis Minnie wasn’t always called Memphis Minnie. Born Lizzie Douglas in northwest Mississippi in 1897, she rejected the name Lizzie in favor of the nickname “Kid,” so “Kid Douglas” she was until a Columbia records talent scout found her and her husband playing in Memphis and sent them to New York to make their first recordings. It was a Columbia producer who renamed them Kansas Joe and Memphis Minnie.

  • Chapter 5 EMBODYING KULEANA Negotiating Black and Native Positionality in Hawaiʻi
    Chapter 5 EMBODYING KULEANA Negotiating Black and Native Positionality in Hawaiʻi For me, it’s not specifically a Black thing. It offends me that all of our disparate minorities—like whether it’s Hawaiian or Asian or Black—it offends me that this colonization of the mind has been so successfully adopted. Our struggles are the same. The individual stories are different, the geography is different, but it is the same kind of aggression over and over, and over again. That’s why I’m so invested and want to learn more about my [Black and Mexican] heritage because, unless you’re White, people are really sensitive to you taking on struggles that you don't have a genetic connection to. Black Mexican long-term resident Tweet by Patrisse Khan- Cullors, co-founder of #BLM. The process of decolonization must also advocate antiracism, just as antiracist activism must also be a decolonial project. However, the positions people take on matters of importance often emerge from their positionalities. Said otherwise, identities inform priorities and politics. What would it mean were the obverse to be the case? Angel, the Black Mexican long-term resident quoted in the epigraph above, seeks out knowledge of her histories to better understand how they link to others. In the second epigraph, Patrisse Khan-Cullors, a co-founder of #BLM, reveals her support for Maunakea protectors and connects the struggles of Native Hawaiians to the Movement for Black Lives. What would it mean to exceed our standpoints and to consider “our people” expansively rather than through identity and exceptionalism? After all, communities have not only been forged as divided and distinct but also as related and intertwined—as will be our futures.
