Black British cultural studies has attracted significant attention recently in the
American academy both as a model for cultural studies generally and as a corrective
to reigning constructions of Blackness within African-American studies. This anthology
offers the first book-length selection of writings by key figures in this field. From
Stuart Hall's classic study of racially structured societies to an interview by Manthia
Diawara with Sonia Boyce, a leading figure in the Black British arts movement, the
papers included here have transformed cultural studies through their sustained focus
on the issue of race. Much of the book centers on Black British arts, especially film,
ranging from a historical overview of Black British cinema to a weighing of the costly
burden on Black artists of representing their communities. Other essays consider such
topics as race and representation and colonial and postcolonial discourse. This anthology
will be an invaluable and timely resource for everyone interested in cultural studies.
It also has much to offer students of anthropology, sociology, media and film studies,
and literary criticism
