Laughing Mad
Author: Bambi Haggins
Publisher: Rutgers University Press
ISBN: 9780813539850
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
In Laughing Mad , Bambi Haggins looks at how this transition occurred in a variety of media and shows how this integration has paved the way for black comedians and their audiences to affect each other. Historically, African American performers have been able to use comedy as a pedagogic tool, interjecting astute observations about race relations while the audience is laughing. And yet, Haggins makes the convincing argument that the potential of African American comedy remains fundamentally unfulfilled as the performance of blackness continues to be made culturally digestible for mass consumption.
