This presentation is part of a larger project in which Professor Poulson-Bryant is thinking about African American cultural production in the 1970s (in the wake of Civil Rights gains of the 1960s) and how some of the seeds of crossover culture in the 80s and 90s can be located in the cross-racial politics of the era.
