Continuing in the vein of his ever questioning the conventions of’race melodrama' through the lens of which so much American cultural history and storytelling has been filtered, Jeffrey Ferguson's final work is brought together here in Race and the Rhetoric of Resistance.
Jeffrey B. Ferguson is remembered as an Amherst College professor of mythical charisma and for his long-standing engagement with George Schuyler, culminating in his paradigm changing book The Sage of Sugar Hill. Continuing in the vein of his ever questioning the conventions of “race melodrama” through the lens of which so much American cultural history and storytelling has been filtered, Ferguson’s final work is brought together here in Race and the Rhetoric of Resistance.
