WEST 4920 - Spiked: Spike Lee’s Cinema

3 Credits (Minimum) 3 Credits (Maximum)

This course analyzes ways in which social identities are represented in American film, particularly through the cinematic lenses of director, producer, actor, and activist Spike Lee. Although this course will focus particularly on the interosculating representations presented by Lee, we will also contextualize his representations as elements of greater American filmic narratives around race, class, sexuality, and so forth gleaned from a variety of perspectives. Approved for LAS Humanities area and Cultural Diversity requirements. Prer., WEST 1010 (formerly WEST 2010). Meets with SOC 4920, SOC 5920.
