White Balance: How Hollywood Shaped Colorblind Ideology and Undermined Civil Rights - Studies in United States Culture
Justin Gomer
In the decades after the civil rights movement, the ideology of colorblindness co-opted the language of the civil rights era in order to reinvent white supremacy. The key to this shift, Justin Gomer contends, was film - Hollywood provided the visual medium necessary to dramatize an anti-civil rights agenda over the course of the 70s, 80s, and 90s.
