About this listen

An examination of how Spike Lee builds an account of antiblackness into his documentary film When the Levees Broke. In particular, I am interested in how that account attends to the specificity of New Orleans as a Black city, the embeddedness of forms and figures of slavery in antiblack practices, and how Lee draws these out of the experiences and reflections of common people who survived the catastrophe we call "Hurricane Katrina."
