A Long, Long Way

Hollywood's Unfinished Journey from Racism to Reconciliation

Buch

The American cinema is one of the great myth-making machines of the last century and has been used to craft defining narratives of race. Films like Birth of a Nation and Gone with the Wind have promoted racist stereotypes and films like Get Out and BlacKkKlansman have worked to tear those same stereotypes down. Greg Garrett's new book suggests that looking to religious traditions can help us discern and correct our nationalnarratives of race and ultimately lead to reconciliation in a meaningful and lasting way.
