This course provides students the opportunity to explore how messages about gender and ethnicity are communicated in the United States via multi-media avenues (e.g., literature, imagery, movies, commercials, art, video games) through the employment of content analysis. The discussion of feminist theory and the intersections of gender, sexuality, ethnicity/race, and socio-economic class throughout this course will assist students in deducing how the multi-media avenues they analyze can effectively (or ineffectively) socially condition people’s attitudes and perceptions at any age.
