POPULARITY
Thirty years ago, Marlon Riggs' documentary Color Adjustment: A History of African American Portrayal on Television traced 40 years of race relations through the lens of prime-time entertainment scrutinizing television's racial myths and stereotypes. Dr. Julian C. Chambliss from Michigan State University and Lansing Township Supervisor Diontrae Hayes revisit some of the topics discussed in the documentary as well as critique some modern day shows on their portrayals of African Americans. The views expressed by guests are their own and their appearance on CADL CAST does not imply an endorsement of them or any entity they represent.
Dr. Julian Chambliss and I talk about the speculative possibilities of art in thinking about climate change and injustice. We discuss his work on "Future Bear" with artist and professor Rachel Simmons and also the Gus Henderson comic strip featuring the life of editor of the Winter Park Advocate. We then go on an unexpected, but delightful, tangent on digital humanities, digital archiving and transcription, and the how this work can be powerful assignments for students.
