Güney’i Silmek: Modern Popüler Kültürde Güney Tarihinin Temsilleri
Anahtar Kelimeler:
Güney kimliği- popüler kültür- ırk- Medeni Haklar Hareketi- film tasvirleri- tarihsel bellekÖz
Bu makale, Güney tarihinin modern popüler kültürdeki tasvirlerini ve Güney kimliğine etkilerini analiz etmektedir. Makale, özellikle filmlerin ırk açısından Güney geçmişini nasıl inşa ettiğini ve tasvir ettiğini incelemektedir. Yazar, Medeni Haklar Hareketi'nin sonunun Güney kimliği oluşturma için yeni bir döneme yol açtığını savunmaktadır; bu dönemde, modern ırkçılık affedilirken tarihsel tasvirler hakim olur. Bu çalışma, 12 Years a Slave (2013), The Help (2011) ve Django Unchained (2012) gibi önemli filmleri inceler ve bunların Güney ile genel Amerikan tartışmalarındaki yerini şekillendirdiğini gösterir. Makale, Güney'in Amerika'nın daha geniş tartışmalarında nasıl anlaşıldığını anlamak için ırk, popüler kültür ve tarihsel belleğin ilişkisini sorgulamak önemini vurgular.
