just your favorite Wacka Flacka video

clips…Your movie must

address a cultural or racial problem or issue.

Our project is based on the work of DJ SPOOKY. He

“remixed” an old EXTREMELY RACIST

movie about the KluKluxClan called “Birth of a Nation”. In his remix

he chopped up and re-arranged clips so that the

Black People in the movie win the battle against the

Klu Klux Clan.

We will learn how to research and ask big

questions in order to come up with a topic for our video by studying an

example that Mr McElgunn will create. Mr

McElgunns example movie will be about the

history of black people in the media.
