S. Craig Watkins
Examines two episodes in the recent history of black film - the ascendancy of Spike Lee and the proliferation of "hood" films such as "Boyz N the Hood" and "Menace II Society". This text argues that black youth have become targets of a fierce racial backlash against crime, drugs and rap music.
