Black Visuality in the Digital Age examines how vision functions as a key site for constructing, policing, and reimagining Black identity in contemporary digital culture. While diasporic expression has long engaged the tactile and the sonic, this course argues that the visual dominates the digital era, shaping how Blackness is seen, circulated, and contested online. Students will explore topics such as digital blackface, black Twitter, algorithmic bias, memes and mimetic communication, and the visual albums of Beyoncé and Solange. Readings by André L. Brock, Simone Browne, and Elizabeth Alexander will ground class discussions in critical frameworks that illuminate how Black creators, communities, and audiences negotiate visibility and power across digital platforms.
