For your final paper, please select at least two of the broad constructs we’ve covered (Gender, Class, Race, LGBTQ, Religion, and Abilities) and one long-format media piece. This might be a movie, a TV series, an advertising campaign, a lengthy magazine article, or some lengthy series of print or broadcast journalism.
Write a three- to four-page paper examining your media example through the lenses of your chosen constructs.
How do you see your constructs represented in your example? Pay special attention to the intersection of your constructs. What might the impact of this be? How might the media professionals who created your example have made better choices? And/or, what choices did they make really well? What can you learn from your analysis to inspire you in your own professional practice? What can you learn that might change your habits as a media consumer? Be sure to consider your example through a lens of fault lines and privilege, also.
If possible, share a link to your example. (If there’s not a link, reference your selection properly and describe it so that I can follow along with you.)
