    Description
    In this course, students will critically examine the role of the media in enabling, facilitating, or challenging ideas around race, gender and class in our society. Using a variety of entertainment and news content, students will gain an appreciation and evaluation of how the media influence everyday notions of race and gender. They will also review the historical roles news and entertainment media have played in creating awareness about the experiences of minoritized communities. (A, CSU, UC, Cal-GETC)
