AAAS 88.20 Music and the Racial Imagination

This course investigates how the construction, imagination, and lived experience of race has influenced musical production, reception, and analysis. We begin by addressing the history of the concept of race, then turn to a series of musical case studies that variously articulate music’s relationship to the construction and negotiation of racial categories. Topics are primarily drawn from the U.S. and include: Asian American hip hop; the “race record” industry; country music and “whiteness,” amongst others.
