Static - Race & representation in post-apartheid music, media & film (Paperback)

Static: Race and representation in post-apartheid music, media and film critically examines music, cinema, social media and the politics of change after apartheid. It cuts across academic disciplines, the creative arts and the media and poses two central questions: Is South Africa changing for the better, or are we static? Is there too much static for us to hear each other clearly? Static provides key insights into recent media phenomena, such as Die Antwoord; the 2010 Soccer World Cup; Bok van Blerk; Tsotsi; Kuli Roberts’ Sunday World column on `coloureds’; revisionist film Afrikaans and the University of the Free State’s Reitz video scandal. The book will appeal to scholars in media, sociology, anthropology, music, African and cultural studies as well as to anybody with an interest in music, media, identity politics and debates about change in postapartheid South Africa.
