Digital media have radically altered understandings of racism, so
that an issue that has too often been assumed to belong to the past
has been thrust into contemporary mainstream debates, news and
popular culture. In light of the importance of traditional
communications and social media to such events as Brexit in the UK
and the Trump Presidency in the US, it is imperative for students
of media and public discourse to examine the role played by the
media in the generation, circulation and contestation of racist
ideas. In Racism and Media, Gavan Titley: Explains why racism is
such a complex and contested concept Provides a set of theoretical
and analytical tools with which to interrogate how media dynamics
and processes impact on racism and anti-racism Demonstrates
methods' application through a wide range of case studies, taking
in examples from the UK, US, and several European countries
Examines the rise and impact of online and social media racism
Analyses questions of freedom of speech and hate speech in relation
to racism and media This book is an essential companion for
students of media, communications, sociology and cultural studies.
