This volume gathers scholarship from varying disciplinary
perspectives to explore media owned or created by members of the
African diaspora, examine its relationship with diasporic
audiences, and consider its impact on mainstream culture in
general. Contributors highlight creations and contributions of
people of the African diaspora, the interconnections of Black
American and African-centered media, and the experiences of
audiences and users across the African diaspora, positioning
members of the Black and African Diaspora as subjects of their own
narratives, active participants and creators. In so doing, this
volume addresses issues of identity, culture, audiences, and global
influence.

This anthology examines how immigrants and their US-born children
use media to negotiate their American identity and how audiences
engage with mediated narratives about the immigrant experience
(cultural adjustments, language use, and the like). Where this work
diverges from other collections and monographs is the area is its
intentional focus on how both first- and second-generation
Americans' complex identities and hybrid cultures interact with
mediated narratives in general, alongside the extent to which these
narratives reflect their experience. In a three-part structure, the
collection examines representations, "zooms in" to explore the
reception of these narratives through autoethnographic essays, and
concludes in a section of analysis and critique of specific media.

Contemporary Christian Culture: Messages, Missions, and Dilemmas
studies Christian media, its meanings, and its impact on social
perceptions and lived experiences in a multicultural context and
from within a communication framework. This interdisciplinary
collection expands the dialogue surrounding race, culture, and
Christian messages and provides a valuable resource for
researchers, educators, and church practitioners who are interested
in understanding how racial and cultural identity are impacted by
religious media products.
