reviewed Venus in the Dark: Blackness and Beauty in Popular Culture on September 26, 2009 Venus in the Dark: Blackness and Beauty in Popular Culture
I love any book that includes an examination of non-white women in popular culture, because more of this scholarship only examines white women. Hobson should have included Black women in music, television, videos, and advertising, but she mainly looked at theatre, art, and indie films, which are items not in the mainstream and so less well known. All in all, a great book for my women & popular culture class.
