"The Routledge Companion to Media and Race serves as a comprehensive guide for scholars, students, and media professionals who seek to understand the key debates about the impact of media messages on racial attitudes and understanding. Broad in scope and richly presented from a diversity of perspectives, the book is divided into three sections: first, it summarizes the theoretical approaches that scholars have adopted to analyze the complexities of media messages about race and ethnicity, from the notion of 'representation' to more recent concepts like Critical Race Theory. Second, the book reviews studies related to a variety of media, including film, television, print media, social media, music, and video games. Finally, contributors present a broad summary of media issues related to specific races and ethnicities and describe the relationship of the study of race to the study of gender and sexuality"--Provided by publisher.

Gaming Representation' offers a timely and interdisciplinary call for greater inclusivity in video games. The issue of equality transcends the current focus in the field of Game Studies on code, materiality, and platforms. Journalists and bloggers have begun to hold the digital game industry and culture accountable for the discrimination routinely endured by female gamers, queer gamers, and gamers of color. Video game developers are responding to these critiques, but scholarly discussion of representation in games has lagged behind. Contributors to this volume examine portrayals of race, gender, and sexuality in a range of games, from casuals like Diner Dash, to indies like Journey and The Binding of Isaac, to mainstream games from the Grand Theft Auto, BioShock, Spec Ops, The Last of Us, and Max Payne franchises. Arguing that representation and identity function as systems in games that share a stronger connection to code and platforms than it may first appear, 'Gaming Representation' pushes gaming scholarship to new levels of inquiry, theorizing, and imagination.

This thesis argues that photography is tainted with ingrained racist ideologies that have been present since its earliest inception in 1839. It considers the act of photographing the Other as a site of Western violence, myth, fantasy and disavowal. It examines archival images through the prism of race, representation and human rights with the aim of extracting new meanings that bring the Other into focus. This is done by reading the images both against the politics of the time in which they were made and as contemporary objects at work in the political and cultural present. The thesis makes the case that photography is burdened with ideological fault-lines concerning race and rights. The fault-lines have been forged by cultural and colonial violence resulting in Western scopic regimes that have dominated and fixed the Other within an inescapable set of Western epistemologies that have been used to serve and enhance imperial perspectives on race. I argue that these perspectives are still active within the Western mindset manifest as benign acts of photographic empathy that work to ultimately bolster Western hegemonies and economies. This thesis is based on 25 years of experience as a researcher and curator of international photography exhibitions, direct research into archives in different continental settings, the presentation of papers in a variety of national and international contexts, and interviews withphotographers, curators and academics. My hypothesis is that the history of photography can only be complete if the voice of the subaltern is made critically present within it, so allowing us to engage with important political racial memory work that can help us re-read the past and reconfigure different meanings concerning history, race, rights and human recognition in the present. I argue that photography requires decolonising work to be carried out on its history. I propose that if we do not recognise the historical and political conjunctures of racial politics at work within photography and the effects on those that have been culturally erased, made invisible or less than human by such images, then we remain hemmed within established orthodoxies of colonial thought concerning the racialised body, the subaltern and the politics of human recognition.

Qu'est-ce que l'identité noire ? Contre ceux qui en défendent une conception ethniciste ou nationaliste, ou qui cherchent avant tout à en préserver l'authenticité, Paul Gilroy montre comment cette identité complexe, nourrie d'une diversité irréductible, repose sur l'existence d'un espace transnational en constante transformation, qui n'est pas spécifiquement africain, américain, caribéen ou britannique, mais tout cela à la fois : l'Atlantique noir. L'objet de ce livre est de donner à voir l''existence de cet espace constitué dès le XVIIe siècle à travers l'histoire de la traite négrière, de retracer ce réseau serré de relations, d'échanges à multiples sens, d'idées, d'hommes et de productions culturelles. Au fil de pages peuplées par les figures les plus hétéroclites, de Spike Lee à Walter Benjamin en passant par les Jubilee Singers, Richard Wright, W. E. B. Du Bois, Jimi Hendrix, Wynton Marsalis et Hegel, l'espace et le temps singuliers de l'Atlantique noir prennent forme et consistance de façon saisissante. La musique, mode d'expression de prédilection d'une culture enracinée dans l'expérience des terreurs indicibles de l'esclavage, avec ses usages et ses allers-retours inattendus d'un bord à l'autre de l'Atlantique, joue ici un rôle de premier plan. Le retour sur l'esclavage et son caractère intrinsèquement moderne, opéré dans les oeuvres de nombreux écrivains noirs, ouvre par ailleurs à une relecture critique de la modernité, d'une portée universelle, au même titre que la critique des conceptions figées et réductrices de l'identité.
