Representing Hip Hop Culture and the Production of Black Cinema
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Univ of Chicago Pr
- Publish date: 06/01/1998
Watkins shows how the black film wave was driven by several factors -- the transformation of the popular film industry; a reinvigorated independent filmmaking niche; the cross-marketing of music, video, and film; a burgeoning hip hop consumer culture; and historically specific struggles over the meanings and representation of "blackness" in America. He contends that despite the social and economic marginalization of black youth, they have gained unprecedented access to the popular media and have been remarkably resilient in cultivating practices that influence not only black popular culture but the broader U.S. popular culture scene as well.
