Posing Uncomfortable Questions: Gwendolyn Brooks' poetry of

imagine the thoughts of a mother who has aborted her children? Want
to see into the heart of the wife of Emmett Till's murderer? Want
to sit in the kitchen of two old bean eaters? Want to hear the
child who wishes she didn't have to be so good all the time? We
will witness the experiences and perspectives of African Americans
who struggled (and continue to struggle) to assert or claim
identity on the other side of America's color line.
Graduate Seminar Special Topic 3, UG
Story Structure
Catalog Number: EN 501 01
Meeting: MTWR 5-8; Full summer one session
Instructor: Barden, Dan
Class Number: 1569
The tools of narrative storytelling are probably as old as cave
paintings and certainly as old as Greek drama. Aristotle
articulated the principles that still pertain to every Hollywood
blockbuster. As fiction writers and essayists and poets, our
application of these principles will be tempered, but maybe not so
much as we think. By studying the examples of stories, novels, and
films, we will seek to understand these principles and apply them
to our own work.

Famed film director Sydney Pollack said of film-"It's the 20th

the time of Jim and Jane Crow film shaped and transformed the 20th
century giving shape and voice to its dreams and nightmares alike.

race and gender in American film in order to understand race and

century.
