Why is a picture of soprano Jessye Norman wrapped in the French flag on the cover of this cultural anthropology text? Here is a Black American womanï¼Œ whose an- cestors came to the New World in European slave ships. She earns her living as an interpreter of an eliteï¼Œ Western European art form that reached its peak of popularity at the end of the late nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth century. She is dressed in the French flagï¼Œ the symbol of what used to be a great colonial empire which included much of the African continent. She is singing the Marseillaiseï¼Œ one of the great revolutionary hymns of all time. It is the climactic moment of the cele- bration in Paris of the bicentenninal of the French Revolutionï¼Œ a revolution whose motto was Libertyï¼Œ Equalityï¼Œ Fraternity. What kind of world must we live in for the event the photograph captures to have really happened on July 14ï¼Œ 1989ï¼Œ telecast to the world? This image contradicts a range of traditional Western presuppositions about the appropriate relationships among raceï¼Œ languageï¼Œ cultureï¼Œ and geography. Deciphering the image requires call- ing into question those same presuppositions. Put another wayï¼Œ to interpret this image--indeedï¼Œ to make sense of the world in which we now live--requires the skills of a cultural anthrooolo~ï¼Œist.
