Product Description
Review
"Each of these essays illustrates the impossibility of understanding television without understanding race." Living Color" subjects the analysis of television, like television itself, to critical interrogations that place racial difference at the center of television history, strategies of representation and narration, forms of address, and industrial production and circulation."--Herman Gray, author of "Watching Race: Television and the Struggle for Blackness"
Book Description
An edited volume of essays on race, ethnicity and television. Combines media studies, cultural studies, and critical race theory to investigate the representation of race on American TV.
