Rasna problematika i Get Out

This paper deals with the portrayal of racial issues in Jordan Peele’s horror film Get Out. Racial issues have been an ongoing problem in the American society throughout history that continues to be in the centre of media discourse even today. The paper aims to summarize some basic concepts when it comes to race, racism and racial relations and to explain the main ideas behind Critical Race Theory, the most prominent approach in the study of racism, which claims that the nature of racism has changed over time. Because racism is still present, it needs to be continually discussed in order to neutralise the negative effects it has on the society and the individual. The paper analyses race and racial issues in Get Out and compares how these are represented in Invisible Man, a famous novel by Ralph Ellison, in an effort to determine whether or not these two works can be seen as belonging inside the Critical Race Theory framework, and why.Ovaj rad se bavi rasnom problematikom prikazanom u horor filmu Jordana Peelea Get Out. Rasna pitanja su izražen problem američkog društva kroz povijest koji je i danas u središtu medijskog diskursa. Cilj rada je objasniti neke osnovne pojmove kada je riječ o rasi, rasizmu i rasnim odnosima te sažeti glavne ideje koje stoje iza Critical Race teorije, najistaknutijeg pristupa u proučavanju rasizma, koji tvrdi da se priroda rasizma s vremenom promijenila. Budući da je rasizam još uvijek prisutan, o njemu treba kontinuirano raspravljati kako bi se neutralizirali negativni učinci koje ima na društvo i pojedinca. Rad analizira rasu i rasna pitanja u filmu Get Out i uspoređuje ih s onima u Invisible Man, poznatom romanu Ralpha Ellisona, nastojeći utvrditi nalaze li se ova dva djela unutar okvira Critical Race teorije i zašto
