Class And Media: Intersectional Economies

Exploration of the representation of class in media, with emphasis upon an intersectional approach. Examination of how class narratives impact both production and consumption of media, as well as how activists can challenge power and give voice to the experience and perspectives of everyday working people through media. Students will consider how narratives about class intersect with elements of identity, such as race, ethnicity, gender and sexuality and how they influence media production and representation.
