Color by Fox: The Fox Network and the Revolution in Black Television - The W.E.B. Du Bois Institute Series
Kristal Brent Zook
This is a fascinating examination of the explosion of black television programming in the 1980s and 1990s. Locating a persistent black nationalist desire -- yearning for home and community -- in the shows produced by and for African Americans in this period, Zook shows how the Fox hip-hop sitcom both reinforced and rebelled against earlier black sitcoms from the sixties and seventies.
