Enlarging the American Cinema

Armond White vs. the Straight Middle-Class White World (and the Black Bourgeoisie)

New!

From: Thinking While Black

$4.40

In this chapter the author examines Armond White’s wildly overlooked film criticism of the 1980’s and 1990’s to shed light on his contributions to resistance aesthetics and film criticism. The author also provides detailed insight as to why White’s work has been disregarded for disrupting the "straight middle-class white world". Topics explored in this chapter included film criticism, music criticism and cultural politics.
