Race, culture and media / Anamik Saha. - xii, 201 pages ; 25 cm.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 179-192) and index.
Introduction -- Race, culture and media -- Race in media studies -- Framework -- Media and the postcolonial -- Race, capitalism and media -- Nationalism, multiculturalism and media -- Race and media power -- Case studies -- Media, migration and racism -- Islamophobia and media -- The production and circulation of blackness in media -- Digital race/racism.
"How do media 'make' race? How do legacies of empire shape our understandings of race and media? How does racism structure the media industries? Is the internet an inherently white space? Understanding the relationship between race, culture and media has never been more important. From the demonisation of Muslims to rampant new forms of racism on digital platforms, media are central to understanding how race is both constructed and experienced in everyday life. Yet media are key to resisting racism, too. While they can silence and stereotype us, they can also enable us to cut across difference, to contest and mobilise, and to create genuine community. Race, Culture and Media is a critical, impassioned and accessible exploration of this complex relationship. Anamik Saha outlines the theories, concepts and research you need to know in order to make sense of race, culture and media today - challenging you to move beyond simplistic notions of 'diversity' to really engage with issues of both power and participation." --
