Catering to White Audiences
Fairview at Woolly Mammoth
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 June 2021
Abstract
Jackie Sibblies Drury’s Fairview attempts to implicate white audience members in spectating Black life in order to make room for audiences of color to imagine a story built outside narratives of overcoming. Yet Fairview expects and operates under the assumption that there is a white audience to respond to the work, and leaves audience members of color exposed once more to the white gaze.
