It primarily leverages popular movies as the medium of analysis, but the rubrics apply to other forms of media. The book provides concrete concepts and a uniform vocabulary to recognize and further analyze these formulaic images, challenging the disparate treatment of non-White characters onscreen. It features an interdisciplinary approach to teaching race, guidance for honing media literacy skills, a HARM Theory Rubric, questions for questing sections, and innovative analysis of depictions of race and ethnicity in the top ten highest-grossing films of all time. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 192 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31 May 2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Teachers' College Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch1\u003eRace and Media Literacy, Explained\u003c\/h1\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this book, Gooding offers twelve clear, cogent, and concise racial rubrics to help users of mainstream media more readily discern patterns hidden in plain sight. The text primarily leverages popular movies as the medium of analysis—since they are unparalleled in their cultural significance—but the rubrics apply to other forms of media, such as television, print, and social media. “Why does the Black guy die first?” is a well-known rhetorical question that challenges the disparate treatment of non-White characters onscreen. This subtle statement about the representation of persons of color within mainstream movies has remained largely unexplored until now. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch1\u003eBook Features:\u003c\/h1\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eAn interdisciplinary approach to teaching race that draws on cinema and forms of popular media that most students know.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eGuidance for honing media literacy skills with middle, high school, and undergraduate college students.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eA HARM Theory Rubric that identifies 6 consistent patterns for depictions of non-White characters and 6 consistent patterns for White characters within mainstream movies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eQuestions for Questing sections provide critical questions for further exploration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eConcrete vocabulary\/glossary terms to engage with the subject matter more precisely.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eInnovative analysis of depictions of race and ethnicity in the top ten highest-grossing films of all time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 162 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780807769416\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Frederick W.
