Film & Theater studies

For the final paper, you will craft an article on/about African cinema for a newspaper or a magazine (for NPR, New York Times, The New Yorker, or The Washington Post). Inspired by topics, histories, scenes, filmmakers, stylistic features, and narratives of the films viewed in class, you will write a 1000 words article to inform your readers (general public) about African cinema and the many reasons to watch cinema coming out of Africa. Inform your readers about the importance of showing African cinema to students and how African cinema will enable students to cultivate a better understanding of Africa, Africans, and the global Black diaspora. You have the creative freedom to construct your own writing piece but do build on some of the topics discussed in class and cultural issues that were depicted in the films.
