About Me

Throughout the 20th and 21st centuries, the United States has seen a steady increase in the prominence and pervasiveness of the media in all aspects of American life. From film to television to novels, the omnipresence of the media is an undeniable influence in our lives. As race has become a common theme to write about and demonstrate on screen, it is imperative to analyze the ways in which various racial identities are portrayed. Our goal is to explore the way race is portrayed in multimedia outlets, and examine the ways in which these illustrations contribute to our understanding of the multiculturalworld we live in. Through specific works we've come across in our daily lives, we hope to reveal what you may not readily notice upon consuming products of the media; that is, the ubiquity of race representations and how these undoubtedly shape and influence our notions of the diverse population that exists within and around us. by pointing out faults or positive representations of race relations in these arenas, we have the aim of becoming more active, analytical, and critical consumers of popular media as it portrays race.
