About this course

This course may be used to satisfy one of four electives required within the Communication major.How do questions about Blackness complicate how we think about news media globally? This course offers an overview of news making practices and their relationship to race. Through weekly analysis of relevant media scholarship, news, and popular materials, the course will explore critical issues facing news media's role in shaping perceptions of Black communities. We will analyze how individual Black media makers, various Black presses, and online media have challenged and/or been complicit in stereotypical framing. The course is ideal for students who want to be more critical news consumers and wish to broaden their knowledge of media systems and representations of Blackness beyond the United States.
