Description

Describes a public viewing of “She’s Gotta Have it” in Spaulding Auditorium. The author emphasizes that this was a rare instance of Black culture coming to Dartmouth. However, during the movie students would cheer at rape scenes and yell in disapproval at queer scenes. Claims that the previous year, student Harriette Yahr wrote a letter to the D expressing concern at the student reaction to “A Clockwork Orange” wherein students also cheered and laughed at “brutal rape scenes.” See all items with this value
