In Technicolored black feminist critic Ann duCille combines cultural critique with personal reflections on growing up with the new medium of TV to examine how televisual representations of African Americans have changed over the last sixty years. Whether explaining how watching Shirley Temple led her to question her own self-worth or how televisual representation functions as a form of racial profiling, duCille traces the real-life social and political repercussions of the portrayal and presence of African Americans on television. Neither a conventional memoir nor a traditional media study, Technicolored offers one lifelong television watcher's careful, personal, and timely analysis of how television continues to shape notions of race in the American imagination. 410 $aA Camera Obscura book 606 $aPerforming Arts / Television / History & Criticism$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial Science / Ethnic Studies / American / African American & Black Studies$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial sciences 615 7$aPerforming Arts / Television / History & Criticism 615 7$aSocial Science / Ethnic Studies / American / African American & Black Studies 615 0$aSocial sciences 700 $aduCille$b Ann$0959802 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910633945103321 996 $aTechnicolored$92175115 997 $aUNINA
