Document Summary

Christina aguilera and eminem are the direct descendants of benny goodman and peggy lee even if the fans of all four would strenuously deny the lineage. As the professor to elaborate on his analysis of birth of a nation being this creation of ideologies that limit the actual prescene of black charactors - i am wondering what is the earlier thesis that this is referring to. More importantly, brando was giving the impression that he was improvising at the same historical moment that charlie parjer and a group of young, mostly black musicians were making improvisation the sine qua non of jazz art. John gennari has suggested that much of the white male appropriation of black masculinity. Shows that white men being able to inhabit black men bodies mean that they can explore their sexual fantasies and desires. (idk why they needed to they were doing that during the periods of lynching. )
