FS 154 - Race, Gender, and Ethnicity in Media

Our society is fundamentally affected by our understanding of race, gender and ethnicity. In this class we will explore how these categories are constructed and function in society and the ways they are shaped by the media. Media portrayals profoundly influence our perspective on the world. We will seek to understand the impact of these media depictions.
