The speech : race and Barack Obama's 'A More… door T. Denean Sharpley-Whiting

Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten.

While the concept of The Speech is interesting, the essays eventually become redundant. I guess there's only so much you can say about one speech, no matter how important it is. The same points were repeated from essay to essay. The role of Reverend Wright, the idea of a "post-racial" America, and the media's focus on throwing the grandmother "under the bus" were brought up again and again.

It's written primarily to an audience of Hip Hoppers, rather then those outside the culture. In other words, it's not meant as fodder for a case against Hip Hop, but rather an appeal and critique to those inside it on why elements need to change.

I think the various perspectives were interesting and the essayists made some good observations. However, I think to truly make this a complete analysis there should be more critical exploration of Obama's speech then what was offered. It felt a bit one sided in its critique which devalues its ability to truly be used in a scholastic application.… (meer)

The Speech: Race and Barack Obama's "A More Perfect… door T. Denean Sharpley-Whiting

Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten.

Very interesting perspectives, and a delight to see multiple reactions to one speech. As other reviewers have mentioned, it does get repetitive at times, but as a History major this is a book I will hang on to forever.
