Harvey* This Article focuses on the oft-neglected intersection of racially skewed outcomes and anti-competitive markets. Through historical, contextual, and empirical analysis, the Article describes the state of Hollywood motion-picture distributionfrom its anti- competitive beginnings through the industry's role in creating an anti-competitive, racially divided market at the end of the last century. The Article's evidence suggests that race-based inefficiencies have plagued the film distribution process and such inefficiencies might likely be caused by the anti-competitive structure of the market itself, and not merely by overt or intentional racial-discrimination.After explaining why traditional anti-discrimination laws are ineffective remedies for such inefficiencies, the Article asks whether antitrust remedies and market mechanisms mght provide more robust solutions.

Griffith’s The Birth of a Nation (1915) and the dawn of the studio system. Griffith’s film consolidated and disseminated powerful racist myths to a national audience, helping to solidify white supremacy while providing ideological justification for lynching. While 1915 marks a low point in cinematic depictions of American race relations, much of the latter history of Hollywood film making is similarly problematic when it comes to representations of African Americans. There is, however, an alternative cinematic tradition that has only begun to receive the attention it is due. Just a few years after Birth, an African American film maker named Oscar Micheaux released Within Our Gates (1919), challenging the racism of Birth, and putting forward an alternative understanding of lynching and the brutality of white supremacy. In subsequent years and decades there has been a vibrant tradition of African American independent filmmaking. This course will examine that tradition, focusing on the work of filmmakers ranging from Micheaux to Gordon Parks to Spike Lee to Julie Dash. We will also venture briefly outside of the United States and address film making within the black diaspora. Throughout the course, we will focus on the social critiques posed by various black film makers, the relationships between mainstream and independent cinema, and the power of film as a social force.

    Kino: The Western Undergraduate Journal of Film Studies Volume 2 | Issue 1 Article 3 2011 Realer than Reel: Menace II Society and the 1990’s Hood Film Cycle Timothy J. Edwards University of Western Ontario Abstract No abstract provided. Keywords African-American cinema, Hughes Brothers, Allen Hughes, Albert Hughes, hood film Recommended Citation Edwards, Timothy J. (2011) "Realer than Reel: Menace II Society and the 1990’s Hood Film Cycle," Kino: The Western Undergraduate Journal of Film Studies: Vol. 2 : Iss. 1 , Article 3. Edwards: Realer than Real Realer than Reel: Menace II Society and the 1990s Hood Film Cycle by Timothy J. Edwards The convergence of numerous industrial and social factors in the late 1960s saw Hollywood studios for the first time invest in films produced with African-Americans as the target audience. This wave of Black-focused product eventually became known as ‘Blaxploitation’ Cinema. Blaxploitation films use cinematic devices like: location shooting, hand held camera, and sync-sound along with a showcasing of distinctly Black cultural imagery, featuring urban fashion, slang, Black nationalist politics, and of course Black popular music to create a Black ghetto chronotope which is common to all Blaxploitation films (Massood 117). While the Black ghetto chronotope has its roots in Blaxploitation, it has since become an important tool which New Black Cinema directors like the Hughes brothers further develop to depict the streets of Watts with a sharp and uncompromising sense of realism. Allen and Albert Hughes spoke of being “outraged by the Hollywood sentimentality” of the hugely successful Boyz n the Hood (1991), which was released two years before Menace II Society (1993) (Massood 162).
