Raising Cain: Blackface Performance from Jim Crow to Hip Hop
W. T. Lhamon
Unearthing long-buried plays and songs, rethinking materials often deemed too troubling or lowly to consider, and overturning ideas about classics from Uncle Tom's Cabin to The Jazz Singer, the author offers an original history of blackface as a cultural ritual that, for all its racist elements, was ultimately liberating.
