Race, Culture & Communication

COM 406
Description: Students will explore how race, ethnicity and other cultural identities are created, shaped, maintained, changed, and contested through communication practices, both mediated (e.g. film, television, game media, print, social networks, music) and non-mediated (face to face interactions). Students will learn to analyze overt, subtle and subliminal messages about culture, race, and/or ethnicity presented to us through the media and in non-mediated discourses . Students will complete a semester-long research project exploring communication, race and culture.
