Things to Consider After Watching I Am Not Your Negro
Media Literacy/ Film Studies
What did you notice about the title treatments throughout? How does the art direction in the titles mirror the message of the film?
The Civil Rights Movement and Race Relations in America
The film touches multiple times on the idea that African-Americans are not entitled to claim part of the society that they helped build. At one point Baldwin is quoted “I am not a ward of America. I am not an object of missionary charity. I’m one of the people who built this country.” Consider this statement and evaluate in within the context of the civil rights movement – then and now.
Literature, Art and Culture
How does contemporary Hollywood culture affect the attitudes and behaviors of society at large?
Questions for Further Discussion
What does it mean to be a witness? How is the role of witness in history different from the roles of others – such as perpetrators, victims, bystanders or allies? What are the responsibilities of a witness, and why is it important that there be witnesses?
Extension Activities Black Lives Matter has become one of the most respected voices in what is now known as the “new civil rights movement.” Go to www.blacklivesmatter.com/find-chapters/, find a local Black Lives Matter chapter, and get involved in the movement.
After exploring the website, reflect on what you learned or discovered. What is the organization’s mission statement? What is their history/background? What role does the organization play in working toward freedom and justice for people of Afrikan descent?

Assessment 2 Case
Case outline
You are an analyst for ValueBank, one of the largest banks in Australia. Senior managers of ValueBank are concerned about how the firm is being perceived in media discourse. It is believed that media perceptions have a tangible impact on the revenue and profitability of the bank, and that this may be compounded in the current climate of COVID-19.
You have received a data file from an independent consulting firm. The file contains information about public media coverage of ValueBank and its two nearest competitors – MegaBank and FamilyBank. The data set has 1,057 unique observations (i.e. articles) across the three firms. The consulting firm has also provided you a data dictionary (Appendix A) that outlines the variables contained in the data set.
Senior managers have asked you to analyse the data, provide insights into how ValueBank is portrayed in the media relative to its competitors, and make recommendations as to what the ValueBank needs to focus their attention on to improve media perception and firm performance. Two measures in the data set that reflect media perceptions are Sentiment and Trustworthy. Senior managers are particularly interested in understanding how programs and services put in place during COVID-19 are being received, such as financial assistance programs they offer (home loan payment deferments, fee waivers) and other customer support mechanisms (extended hours customer advice hotline, keeping retail branches open). Competitor banks are also offering programs of a similar nature, although the specifics vary. Additionally, senior managers are also hoping that you will find other insights in your analysis of the data.
To help you with your analysis, a statistician at ValueBank has run multiple regressions on the data for each bank and provided you with the results (Appendix B).
