Download or read book Race and Media written by Lori Kido Lopez and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A foundational collection of essays that demonstrate how to study race and media From graphic footage of migrant children in cages to #BlackLivesMatter and #OscarsSoWhite, portrayals and discussions of race dominate the media landscape. Race and Media adopts a wide range of methods to make sense of specific occurrences, from the corporate portrayal of mixed-race identity by 23andMe to the cosmopolitan fetishization of Marie Kondo. As a whole, this collection demonstrates that all forms of media—from the sitcoms we stream to the Twitter feeds we follow—confirm racism and reinforce its ideological frameworks, while simultaneously giving space for new modes of resistance and understanding. In each chapter, a leading media scholar elucidates a set of foundational concepts in the study of race and media—such as the burden of representation, discourses of racialization, multiculturalism, hybridity, and the visuality of race. In doing so, they offer tools for media literacy that include rigorous analysis of texts, ideologies, institutions and structures, audiences and users, and technologies. The authors then apply these concepts to a wide range of media and the diverse communities that engage with them in order to uncover new theoretical frameworks and methodologies. From advertising and music to film festivals, video games, telenovelas, and social media, these essays engage and employ contemporary dialogues and struggles for social justice by racialized communities to push media forward.

Undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty alike have much to gain from this text."--John Downing, Department of Radio-Television-Film, University of Texas, Austin "This is a well-conceived and provocative collection that goes a long way toward filling a real void in available classroom textbooks. I have no doubt that it will provoke many hours of discussion and debate about the relations between contemporary media forms and the politics of identity and difference."--Larry Grossberg, Morris Davis Professor of Communication Studies, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill "This is one of the few books that really attempts to take the topic of mass media seriously while demonstrating a range of languages and approaches that illustrate what doing cultural studies is actually about." --Henry Giroux, Waterbury Chair, The Pennsylvania State University "A terrific book--broad based in cultural and critical studies. Gender, Race, and Class in Media is an excellent text for courses in which multiple perspectives are represented." --Ellen Wartella, Dean, College of Communication, University of Texas, Austin An introductory text-reader, Gender, Race, and Class in Media critically examines the mass media as economic and cultural institutions that shape our social identities, especially in regard to gender, race, and class. Through an analysis of such popular genres as soap operas, talk shows, rap music, sitcoms, rock videos, pornography, made-for-TV movies, advertising, and romance novels, students are invited to engage in critical mass media scholarship. From a critical/cultural perspective, the comprehensive introduction delineates the major paradigms in media studies today. It outlines the text's integrated approach to media studies, which incorporates three distinct but related areas of investigation within media studies: political economy of production textual analysis audience response/resistance Chapter introductions to the selected readings, which are drawn from original essays and influential previously published articles, provide a framework for understanding and analyzing how gender, race, and class are structural and experiential categories that inform the production, construction, and consumption of media representations. Gender, Race, and Class in Media is designed as a comprehensive critical introduction to mass media, but it can also be used as a supplement to a more standard text. This text-reader is also valuable for such courses as sociology of media, media criticism, cultural studies, popular culture, journalism, visual literacy, and especially where a critical approach is used.

Download or read book Discourses of Denial written by Yasmin Jiwani and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enriched by its official policies of multiculturalism, gender equality, and human rights, the Canadian public is occasionally shocked by glaring acts of racist and sexist violence brought to their attention by the sensationalist media. But nobody pauses to consider the historical antecedents and root causes of these tragedies. Discourses of Denial uncovers how racism, sexism, and violence interweave deep within the foundations of our society. Using examples from the lives of immigrant girls and women of colour, Yasmin Jiwani considers the way accepted definitions of race and gender shape and influence public consciousness. In linking race, gender, and violence, this book makes an important contribution to our understanding of the complex and interconnected influences that shape the violence of contemporary social reality and that contour the lives of racialized women.
