A Chosen Cultural Object

/in /by

 Description Select one cultural object from the course, and write an essay for a reader from the future that offers a detailed analysis of your chosen object, describing what makes the object an instructive representation of black life/culture in its historical moment. Is it offering effective reinforcement of a widely held sentiment about blackness in its time? Is it offering a strong challenge to a widely held sentiment about blackness in its time? Is it sidestepping widely held sentiments about blackness to convey something different about blackness in the time of its creation and initial circulation? NOTE
