Book Synopsis:

Sociologists can learn a lot from studying a group's media consumption 
patterns. In this study, Ogunyemi researches what stories are most 
resonant with Black Africans living in England. The book tries to 
discover whether or not this minority group adopts normative approaches 
to media coverage, by not only consuming but participating in media. It 
also discusses the omission of African stories by the mainstream media 
in England. This book will contribute to understanding ethnic media trends.
