SPA 387 - Latinas/os in the Media (1)

From an interdisciplinary perspective, this course seeks to examine the historical and contemporary erasure, marginalization, and integration of Latinas/os in U.S. media. Similarly, we will critically investigate the stereotypical narratives about gender, race, sexuality, language, and nation, as well as the evolving portrayal and discourse of Latinas/os in mainstream media. Issues regarding production, consumption, and expectations will also be explored. Prerequisite(s): SPA 311
