B(e)aring the Naked Truth: the Black Female Body Revisited

Original language description

This paper argues that in the contemporary era of mass media consumption of black images, the black female body continues to be subjected to stereotyping that reproduces the old forms of racist oppression. Based primarily on the collection of personal essays edited by Ayana Byrd and Akiba Solomon, Naked: Black Women Bare All About Their Skin, Hair, Lips, and Other Parts (2005), it examines some of the negative images of the black female body upheld in the collective consciousness of the American black community while discussing the issues of black aesthetics, in particular as they apply to women.
