Abstract

Flashback/Flashblack unpacks the interplay between contemporary industrial, social, and political forces and the place of Blackness that continues to construct and reconstruct the televisual landscape. We focus on how the medium, the industry, and the manner in which television reflects and refracts American popular consciousness, are inextricably tied to notions of acceptability, objectionability, respectability, and constructions of Blackness.
