Topic: Minorities and the media
Question: How has the portrayal of minorities in the media changed?
I chose this topic because there is a lot I can touch on when writing my paper and on top of that it’s nice to see how the media has changed for good and has allowed multiple people to benefit from it not just certain people. Moving on I will be researching about the artist that existed back 30 years ago compared to now and compare how different things are back then then they are now. I will also touch on racism and how things in that aspect have changed and how they haven’t.
I really like to see where you go with this topic because I’m 50/50 Chinese/American and I feel like this would be a great paper to read. I like how you are developing your paper through talking about the different historical events our predecessors went through and how it has changed in today’s modern age. I feel like media plays a huge role in all societies across the globe and I’d like to see how you can connect that to the perception of minorities as I believe it has changed too.
I like this topic and it’s interesting that it ties in with the New Jim Crow article we read before. Definitely touch base on not only how artists were treated now vs then but also how the media portrays doc actors, activists , etc. I think the New Jim Crow article would be very helpful for this essay.
