Winner of the 2017 Outstanding Book Award from the National
Communication Association's International and Intercultural
Communication Division and the 2017 Sue DeWine Book Award from the
NCA Applied Communication Division Using oral history, ethnography,
and close readings of media, Sarah C. Bishop probes the myriad and
sometimes conflicting ways refugees interpret and use mediated
representations of life in the United States. Guided by 74 refugee
narrators from Bhutan, Burma, Iraq, and Somalia, U.S. Media and
Migration explores answers to questions such as: What does one
learn from media about an unfamiliar place? How does media help or
hinder refugees' sense of belonging after relocation? And how does
the U.S. government use media to shape refugees' understanding of
American norms, standards, and ideals? With insights from refugees
and resettlement administrators throughout, Bishop provides a
compelling and layered analysis of the interaction between refugees
and U.S. media before, during, and long after resettlement.
