We are living in one of the most diverse, and one of the most mediated, countries in the world. Whether its the butt of a joke or the stereotype in a role, race is a constant factor in the media that we obsorb everyday and yet we often shy away from truly open conversations concerning race. In this class we'll take a chance to express what we see and what it can mean, to look at the comedy, reality, action and reaction that occurs in American media and analyze the dialectic of racial representation that it constructs.
