This Study Of What Brian Norman Terms A Neosegregation Narrative Tradition Examines Literary Depictions Of Life Under Jim Crow That Were Written Well After The Civil Rights Movement.From Toni Morrisons First Novel, The Bluest Eye, To Bestselling Black Fiction Of The 1980S To A String Of Recent Work By Black And Nonblack Authors And Artists, Jim Crow Haunts The Postcivil Rights Imagination. Norman Traces A Neosegregation Narrative Traditionone That Developed In Tandem With Neoslave Narrativesby Which Writers Return To A Moment Of Stark De Jure Segregation To Address Contemporary Concerns About National Identity And The Persistence Of Racial Divides. These Writers Upset Dominant National Narratives Of Achieved Equality, Portraying What Are Often More Elusive Racial Divisions In What Some Would Call A Postracial Present.Norman Examines Works By Black Writers Such As Lorraine Hansberry, Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, David Bradley, Wesley Brown, Suzanlori Parks, And Colson Whitehead, Films By Spike Lee, And Other Cultural Works That Engage In Debates About Gender, Black Power, Blackface Minstrelsy, Literary History, And Whiteness And Ethnicity. Norman Also Shows That Multiethnic Writers Such As Sherman Alexie And Tom Spanbauer Use Jim Crow As A Reference Point, Extending The Tradition Of William Faulkners Representations Of The Segregated South And John Howard Griffins Notorious Account Of Crossing The Color Line From White To Black In His 1961 Work Black Like Me.
