Title: Whitewash: White subjectivity and 카지노 룰렛 전략 erasure in US film culture

Abstract:

In my current book project, I theorize the popularly used concept of filmic “whitewashing,” differentiating it from White supremacy, White privilege, and Whiteness theory while noting its relationship to all three of these foundational concepts. The presentation, which is based on the theoretical foundations set forth in the book’s introduction, examines the whitewashing of 카지노 룰렛 전략/American roles and stories. To do so, I explore not only the construction of Whiteness but the symbolic erasure of 카지노 룰렛 전략ness. Furthermore, borrowing from Afro-futurism, I engage my scholarly imagination to consider how meanings change if the characters are not whitewashed but played by 카지노 룰렛 전략 Americans, instead. Like William Yu, the digital strategist whose photoshopped images of actor John Cho on major motion picture posters sparked viral sharing, activist optimism, and imagination, I consider the possibilities and implications of 카지노 룰렛 전략 American actors in these roles. To do so, I draw from literature on symbolic annihilation, Whiteness theory, and 카지노 룰렛 전략/American representation in media in order to analyze contemporary cinema through a critical cultural approach rooted in communication studies. With the exception of a single article by LeiLani Nishime, there has been no scholarly work on whitewashing despite its salience in 카지노 룰렛 전략 American activist and creative producers’ discourse. This book project and presentation hopes to take a step toward bridging this gap.
