Book Description

0807738867 978-0807738863 January 1, 2000
Exploring how children make sense of media representations of race, sex, violence and class, this text demonstrates how the meanings they impose depend on the local contexts in which they live. It suggests that they are capable of resistant interpretations of the movies and television they watch.
