Gender, Race, and Social Identity in American Politics: The Past
and Future of Political Access explores the ways in which cultural
expression is represented in American politics as it intersects
with issues of gender, race, and the construction of social
identity. Specifically, this body of work examines how
representations in the media and larger culture can establish and
diminish the status of diverse communities of American politicians.
Contributors analyze the rhetorical and performative changes that
have occurred in America as it has shifted politically from growing
acceptance and tolerance to an obscure—and often
hostile—conservative ideology. This book contributes to the
growing dialogue surrounding American politics by citing specific
cases of gender and race-based infringements of the current
political system, as purported by media and party players. This
book will be especially useful to scholars of political science,
media studies, gender studies, and critical race studies.
Post-Pandemic Pedagogy: A Paradigm Shift discusses how the COVID-19
pandemic radically altered teaching and learning for faculty and
students alike. The increased prevalence of video-conferencing
software for conducting classes fundamentally changed the way in
which we teach and seemingly upended many best practices for good
pedagogy in the college classroom. Whether it was the reflection
over surveillance software, or the increased mental health demands
of the pandemic on teachers and students, or the completely
reshaped ways in which classes and co-curricular experiences were
delivered, the pandemic year represented an opportunity for one of
the largest shifts in our understanding of good pedagogy unlike any
experienced in the modern era. This edited collection explores what
we thought we knew about a variety of teaching ideas, how the
pandemic changed our approach to them, and proposes ways in which
some of the adjustments made to accommodate the pandemic will
remain for years to come. Scholars of communication, pedagogy, and
education will find this book particularly interesting.
