Course Description
Students will screen various forms of media (from 1941 to present) to identify and examine cultural and racial stereotypes. They will also screen present day media to identify how media has evolved. The course will increase students' understanding of how the media work, how they produce meaning, how they are organized, and how they construct reality. Through reading, screenings, written essays and group discussions, the course will provide students with a new set of lenses from which to recognize and analyze media.
