Abstract: Though racial representation among top-billed actors in mainstream film is improving, serious Black heroes who speak African American vernacular English (AAVE) are still nearly nonexistent in these roles. Jamie Foxx's character Django from Quentin Tarantino's 2012 film Django Unchained may represent the only one in a successful, mainstream film in the twenty-first century. Unlike other characters who speak AAVE, Django is neither silly nor stupid. Tarantino expresses power through language in this character and others in the film, and Django's AAVE dialect is presented as equal in authority to the dialects of the film's white characters.

Django Unbleached：主流电影中的力量和真实性语言

摘要：尽管主流电影中票房最高的演员中的种族代表性有所提高，但讲非裔美国人白话（AAVE）的严肃黑人英雄在这些角色中仍然不存在。昆汀·塔伦蒂诺（Quentin Tarantino）2012年的电影《 Django Unchained》中杰米·福克斯（Jamie Foxx）的角色《 Django》可能代表了二十世纪一部成功的主流电影中的唯一一部。与说AAVE的其他角色不同，Django既不傻也不愚蠢。塔伦蒂诺通过这个角色以及影片中其他角色的语言表达力量，而Django的AAVE方言在权力上等同于影片中白色人物的方言。
