Option one: African Americans and Race/Ethnicity
Two groups of readings for this section of the course focus on various aspects of the experience of African Americans in American culture and with more generic questions of ethnicity and race. Wing Sue e. al emphasize microaggressions and their place in contemporary culture, where racism works more under the surface and less explicitly. Cammarota addresses the role of white saviors. McIntosh speaks of white privilege, and Omi and Winant trace some of the historical development of racism. Rowe highlights questions of ethnicity and especially the role of police power. In your essay, address two or three of the main concepts brought out by Wing Sue, Cammrota, McIntosh, Omi and Winant, or Rowe. How do they relate to either The Harder They Fall or McFarland, USA? (Use these articles for reference Julio Cammarota, Blinded by the Avatar: White Saviors and Allies Out of Hollywood and in Education, Derald Wing Sue et. al, Racial Microaggressions: Implications for Clinical Practice, Aimee Rowe, Whose America? Politics of Rhetoric and Space in Formation of Nationalism) To clarify: do not write an essay dealing with both films. Select one, and utilize the articles which seem the most relevant to you.
