the kind of writing Neal is calling for is the kind of writing that reflects the community's identity. what he mean by the community's identify is that one has to write about his or her experience within the community. each community have something special to teach the rest of the world, with that being said the black community should not loose their values through integration. these values are the ideals that make that community who they are and it should be uphold in the arts that are created, to show the contribution of the community to humanity. Neal is calling for writers to write the story of the neighborhood through their perspective. The reason that inspired Neal to write about the need for writer's work to reflect the neighborhood is because in 1968 black people in Mississippi were underrepresented by the democratic party although they were the majority of the people in that state. The black people of mississippi created their own party to refflect their concern, although their members was not seated at the democratic convention in 1968.

art loosing value

in class we spook about how the black art movement wanted art to reflect morality, well this article in news week show how movies now are a 2 hour commercial.because the art is being compromise for endorsement of product. for example in a scrip for a movie there was no mention of the actor being hungry well because there was a deal made the scrip had to now include the actor saying they going to a well known fast food place. apparently that how movies are finance now
art like this loose it value to the community and the artist
