Dr. Gillespie’s talk will consider some of the major arguments and themes of Film Blackness: American Cinema and the Idea of Black Film with attention to issues of visual historiography, death, resistance, and film form. By mapping out ways of addressing the idea of black film through the lens of black visual and expressive culture, the talk will focus on recent and consequential enactments of film blackness.
