Together, these readings provide a multifaceted and often intersectional look at how race, gender, and class relate to the creation and use of media texts as well as the media texts themselves. </p><p>Designed to be flexible in the classroom, the book begins with a detailed introduction to key concepts and presents a contextualizing introduction to each of the three main sections. Each reading contains multiple <i>It's Your Turn</i> activities to foster student engagement and which can serve as the basis for assignments. The book offers a list of resources--books, articles, films, and websites--that are of value to students and instructors. Several alternate Tables of Contents are provided as options for reorganizing the material and maximizing the flexibility of the readings: by site of struggle (gender, race, class), by medium (television, print, digital, etc.), and by arena (journalism, entertainment). This fourth edition also features a new text design that yields a more compact book without sacrificing any of the coverage of previous editions. </p><p>This volume is an essential introduction to interdisciplinary studies of gender, race, and class across mass media.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Rebecca Ann Lind</strong> is Associate Professor and Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Department of Communication at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
