About this title

Reviews

The first synthesis of the massive amount of research on the stereo typed portrayals of America's ethnic and racial minorities in film and TV. The study has an extensive bibliogra phy of books, dissertations, govern ment reports, and journal, magazine, and newspaper articles, covering a wide range of disciplines. Each of the 12 chapters contains a history of a particular ethnic or racial group's im age in film and TV from the early 20th century, followed by a brief analysis of the research literature. The most extensive essay covers Afro-Ameri cans but Arabs, Asians, Germans, Irish, etc., are also included. An ex cellent book on how the film and TV image of minorities has changed over the years; recommended for both large public and academic librar ies.Louis Vyhnanek, Washington State Univ.
