Josslyn Jeanine Luckett: Toward a More Perfect Rebellion, Gebunden

Klappentext

"Toward a More Perfect Rebellion tells the riveting story of the socially engaged filmmakers of color who studied in the Ethnocommunications program at the University of California, Los Angeles. While the program is best known for training the trailblazing group of Black directors known as the L. A. Rebellion, with this book, Josslyn Luckett includes the radical Asian American, Chicana / o, and Native American filmmakers who collaborated alongside their Black classmates to create one of the most expansive and groundbreaking bodies of work of any US university cohort. Through extensive interviews with the filmmakers and cross-racial analysis of their collective filmography, Luckett sheds light on a largely untold history of media activists working outside of Hollywood yet firmly rooted in Los Angeles, aiming their cameras with urgency and tenderness to capture their communities' stories of power, struggle, and improvisational brilliance"--
