Read through Darnell Hunt, Channeling Blackness, Chapter 1 Making Sense of Blackness on Television then write a 3-5 pages reading abstract. (I have attached the reading material and an example of this assignment)
Please cover the following:
About the Article/Essay

Identify the authors thesis/main argument (and, see if the thesis is reiterated/revisited throughout the piece which is a mark of clear writing).
Articulate the project or concern of an essay/chapter/article are you able to get a sense of it on the first page or two?
Are there overarching questions that the essay proposes or raises?
Relay the key point(s); share key concepts, theoretical arguments and
proposals.
Type up direct quotations, and include page numbers.
Provide the terms/terminology introduced or used in the piece (that you
might also use).
Note figures/writers/theories/television, film, media text titles that are
mentioned and which draw your attention.
Possibly note the articles methodological approach and/or in tone.
Your Assessment
What do you think is the goal of the essay, and does it succeed?
Name one specific element that you think is successful (or not) in the
writing?
Can you think of a connection to another of our readings?
Please develop at least two discussion questions based upon the reading. 
Questions to Raise
You will be able to help facilitate discussion by employing this document.
The page-range and format/style for the abstract are open, though emulating the narrative arc/organizational structure of the readings themselves can prove an effective way to present and go-through the reading. An abstract is usually 3-5 pages long, depending on the length of the original piece.

P.S. This assignment is very important. If you do well I can assign you all my other hw. The actual due date is 1/20 but I need to have it by the 19th so I can go through it.
