Caroline is a PhD student on the film and screen studies track within the English program. She is primarily interested in African-American film history, Black visuality studies, and archives. Her research questions how visuality participates in our understanding of race, and it seeks to discover how Black archival engagements and practices disrupt dominant ways of seeing. Caroline has been a teaching assistant for the courses World Cinema, Interpretation of New Media, Interpretation of Film, Hip Hop and Race, and was an African-American Studies External Fellow in 2019-2020. Her independent courses include Gender and Literary Texts.
