“/Racialized Media/presents a timely collection of readings 
investigating the complex relationship between race and media. A diverse 
mix of established and emerging scholars highlight contemporary topics, 
issues, and controversies concerning media production, circulation, and 
consumption. From traditional media forms like film, television, and 
news to social media and online artifacts, the book covers a broad array 
of cultural objects. An informative and thorough book, /Racialized 
Media/makes a convincing case for why media and race matter and how they 
are essential to understanding our social world.”*—Maryann Erigha, 
author of **/The Hollywood Jim Crow: The Racial Politics of the Movie 
Industry/**__*

How media propagates and challenges racism.

From /Black Panther/to #OscarsSoWhite, the concept of “race,” and how 
it is represented in media, has continued to attract attention in the 
public eye. In /Racialized Media/, Matthew W. Hughey, Emma 
González-Lesser, and the contributors to this important new collection 
of original essays provide a blueprint to this new, ever-changing media 
landscape.*__*

With sweeping breadth, contributors examine a number of different 
mediums, including film, television, books, newspapers, social media, 
video games, and comics. Each chapter explores the impact of 
contemporary media on racial politics, culture, and meaning in society. 
Focusing on producers, gatekeepers, and consumers of media, this book 
offers an inside look at our media-saturated world, and the impact it 
has on our understanding of race, ethnicity, and more. Through an 
interdisciplinary lens, /Racialized Media/provides a much-needed look at 
the role of race and ethnicity in all phases of media production, 
distribution, and reception.*__*
