Performance Artist And Scholar E. Patrick Johnsons Provocative Study Examines How Blackness Is Appropriated And Performedtoward Widely Divergent Endsboth Within And Outside African American Culture. Appropriating Blackness Develops From The Contention That Blackness In The United States Is Necessarily A Politicized Identityavowed And Disavowed, Attractive And Repellent, Fixed And Malleable. Drawing On Performance Theory, Queer Studies, Literary Analysis, Film Criticism, And Ethnographic Fieldwork, Johnson Describes How Diverse Constituencies Persistently Try To Prescribe The Boundaries Of 'Authentic' Blackness And How Performance Highlights The Futility Of Such Enterprises.Johnson Looks At Various Sites Of Performed Blackness, Including Marlon Riggss Influential Documentary Black Is . . .

He Analyzes Nationalist Writings By Amiri Baraka And Eldridge Cleaver, The Vernacular Of Black Gay Culture, An Oral History Of His Grandmothers Experience As A Domestic Worker In The South, Gospel Music As Performed By A White Australian Choir, And Pedagogy In A Performance Studies Classroom. By Exploring The Divergent Aims And Effects Of These Performancesranging From Resisting Racism, Sexism, And Homophobia To Excluding Sexual Dissidents From The Black Communityjohnson Deftly Analyzes The Multiple Significations Of Blackness And Their Myriad Political Implications.
