Perhaps I just had a short attention span that night, but I have to agree with Yaeri that this was not one of the better lectures of the semester. However, Anderson did bring to light racist moments that were quite hard to digest like the President of the United States endorsing the film ‘The Klansmen’ and the reception it received in Hollywood. It was interesting that she acknowledged that the LA Riots in the early 90’s were in fact riots because of their unorganized nature as opposed to ‘uprisings’ or other more PC or genteel terms that have tried to replace ‘riots’. Her information on Biddy Mason was interesting and I would like to learn more about her.
