This book brings into focus the perception of Muslim women in the United States, often overlooked in research literature and common media narratives, but at the same time facing increasing hate and aggression based on their religious and gendered identities. Guided by data from three original experiments and theories of priming and media effects, Alexis Tan and Anastasia Vishnevskaya discuss how stereotypes of Muslim women in the media influence public stereotypes, and how public stereotypes direct aggressions towards them. This book contributes to existing literature in the field by presenting evidence that both verbal and visual symbols in the media can activate implicit prejudices, and that activation can be controlled by people who self-identify as social liberals. Ultimately, Tan and Vishnevskaya suggest both media and intrapersonal interventions to mitigate harmful consequences of prejudice towards Muslim women in the United States. Scholars of media studies, communication, religious studies, gender studies, and cultural studies will find this book particularly useful.
Communication and Prejudice: Theories, Effects, and Interventions explores how communication affects prejudice, and how communication interventions can reduce it. The book gives readers a well-rounded understanding of theories and current research on the topic, sustained with real-world examples that bring concepts and principles to life. The book presents students with a thoughtful, accessibly written, cohesive view of issues related to communication and prejudice from a true social science perspective. Topics include levels of communication, defining and measuring prejudice, stereotypes in the media and public information, mass media, and education programs. Dedicated chapters address stereotypes and prejudice in video games, social media and cyberbullying, and digital information literacy. The third edition features new chapters and sections on racial bias in politics and education, hate in social media, fake news, and racial cues in presidential politics. Communication and Prejudice addresses prejudice as a world-wide problem and explores communication interventions at the intra-, inter- and mass communication levels of analysis. It is ideal for undergraduate courses in journalism, mass communication, race and gender in media, and communications.
