Behind the Screen: Tap Dance, Race, and Invisibility During Hollywood's Golden Age
Shiovitz, Brynn W. (Lecturer in Dance, Lecturer in Dance, Chapman University)
How and why was outdated racial content - and specifically blackface minstrelsy - not only permitted, but in fact allowed to thrive during the 1930s and 1940s despite the rigid motion picture censorship laws which were enforced during this time? Introducing a new theory of covert minstrelsy, this book illuminates Hollywood's practice of capitalizing on the Africanist aesthetic at the expense of Black lived experience.
