TV and Reality
In 1965, Bill Cosby starred in the television program I Spy, becoming one of the first African-American dramatic leads on television. Cosby and his costar, Robert Culp, insisted that there be no racial jokes or themes in the program. They wanted the show to be "color blind" so that Cosby’s presence was simply accepted as normal. On the one hand, that was a daring move for the 1960’s; but was that a realistic or idealized representation of race relations for 1965 or today?
In this Application, you will compare the depictions of race on television with the realities of race and explore how each affects the other.
