What 'Ain’t No Mo' Taught Me About 400 Years of Inequality

www.clydefitchreport.com: 2019 marks a solemn observance that all Americans, and really the world, should reflect on: the 400th anniversary of enslaved Africans first arriving in Jamestown, VA. Recently, I had a transformative experience that motivated me to reflect deeply on this anniversary. This experience also led me to consider how the Black body articulates its complex relationship with America, how the Black body is portrayed in theater and entertainment, and how the dehumanization and commodification of Black bodies inform the foundation of our nation and our society.
