Black Italian Cinema and 数字表现 is an introduction to issues of culture, “种族,“身份, and citizenship in contemporary Italy drawing from documentary, 电影, 以及社交媒体的新舞台. 整整一代的意大利黑人, 特别是艺术家, 企业家, 博主(尤其是千禧一代), have been affirming themselves in Italian culture and society, gaining progressively more visibility starting in the 1990s, thus entering the spotlight of the Global Black Diaspora. In this course we will ask questions such as: Which themes are most discussed among Black Italians? 他们引用和引用了哪些艺术形式? In which ways and through which channels do Black Italians engage with the Global Black Diaspora?
