HBO's Girls and the Awkward Politics of Gender, Race, and Privilege
is a collection of essays that examines the HBO program Girls.
Since its premiere in 2012, the series has garnered the attention
of individuals from various walks of life. The show has been
described in many terms: insightful, out-of-touch, brash, sexist,
racist, perverse, complex, edgy, daring, provocative-just to name a
few. Overall, there is no doubt that Girls has firmly etched itself
in the fabric of early twenty-first-century popular culture. The
essays in this book examine the show from various angles including:
white privilege; body image; gender; culture; race; sexuality;
parental and generational attitudes; third wave feminism; male
emasculation and immaturity; hipster, indie, and urban music as it
relates to Generation Y and Generation X. By examining these
perspectives, this book uncovers many of the most pressing issues
that have surfaced in the show, while considering the broader
societal implications therein.
