Description
"This collection examines Jordan Peele's Nope through various critical lenses, engaging with interwoven themes of spectacle, media, technology, genre, race, representation, and the environment, as well as the critical questions they raise regarding exploitation, power, and audience complicity. The essays offer an interdisciplinary and intersectional approach to the film, providing valuable context within Peele's oeuvre." - Penelope Ingram, author of Imperiled Whiteness: How Hollywood and Media Make Race in "Postracial" America
