Cinema Civil Rights
Regulation, Repression, and Race in the Classical Hollywood Era
Rutgers University Press
Cinema Civil Rights presents the untold history of how black audiences, activists, and lobbyists influenced the depiction of race in American films of the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. Drawing from extensive archival research, Ellen C. Scott takes us to the sites, both inside and outside of Hollywood, where these representations were shaped. She thus offers a nuanced examination of the film industry’s role in both articulating and censoring the national conversation on race.

Intersectionality, traditionally associated with social activism, is used here more liberally as a critical and analytic tool to explore films, expressing multiple points of views and multiple ways of looking at films.
