Humanities Homework Help

write a two-page single-spaced essay (one, unified essay) that addresses the following issues (not necessarily in order and preferably integrated throughout the essay):

1 The subjectivity and identity of a Belgian child who reads Tintin, versus the subjectivity and identity of a BIPOC child who reads Tintin. (Hint: I am looking for a discussion of the relation between knowledge and power introduced by Foucault)

2 The creation of a common sense around race and ethnicity through images such as those found in Tintin books. (Hint: I am looking for a discussion of Gramsci’s cultural hegemony)

3 The representation of the Other, and its political uses, in the Tintin drawings provided above. (Hint: I am looking for a discussion of binary representations using Edward Said’s Orientalism)

Close your essay with a critical appraisal of how the concepts you discussed earlier are relevant for our understanding of race relations in the US and Europe today.
