Question:
I want you to watch the video "Alright" by Kendrick Lamar and write a short analysis of a scene of your choosing. Alexander models this wonderfully in her essay. You can think about the landscape, the symbolism, the choice for filming in black and white, references to the lyrics as they appear on screen, and/or the references to fantasy (like flying, or using one's fingers in place of a gun).
What do you think Kendrick was trying to accomplish with this video? Do Kendrick's points at all intersect with Alexander's? Is it optimistic? Pessimistic? Use your critical eye and your creativity.
