Should “blackness” exist?| Mitchell Jackson

Описание к видео Should “blackness” exist?| Mitchell Jackson

As the discourse around race becomes more heated in recent years, Mitchell Jackson questions the existence and necessity of the racial categories of blackness and whiteness at all. Growing up as a stereotypically “black” male – joined a gang, went to prison -- and then breaking out of those stereotypes to become a writer, filmmaker and advocate, Mitchell discusses the invention of race, how it keeps us in a loop of anger and resentment, and what the future may look like.
