Media Messages
Author: Linda Holtzman
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317464923
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 643
Book Description
The new edition of this widely adopted book reveals how the popular media contribute to widespread myths and misunderstanding about cultural diversity. While focused on the impact of television, feature film, and popular music, the authors reach far beyond media to explore how our understanding, values, and beliefs about race, class, gender and sexual orientation are constructed. They analyze how personal histories, combined with the collective history of oppression and liberation, contribute to stereotypes and misinformation, as well as how personal engagement with media can impact prospects for individual and social freedom. Along with updated media examples, expanded theories and analysis, this edition explores even more deeply the coverage of race in two chapters, discusses more broadly how men and boys are depicted in the media and socialized, and how class issues have become even more visible since the Great Recession of the 21st century and the Occupy movements. Special activities and exercises are provided in the book and an online Instructor's Manual is available to adopters.

Good Girl Messages
Author: Deborah O'Keefe
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1474286828
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
For much of the 20th century, books for children encouraged girls to be weak, submissive, and fearful. This book discusses such traits, both blatantly and subtly reinforced, in many of the most popular works of the period. Quoting a wide variety of passages, O'Keefe illustrates the typical behaviour of fictional girls – many of whom were passive and immobile while others were actually invalids. They all engaged in approved girlish activities: deferred to elders, observed the priorities, and, in the end, accepted conventional suitors. Even feisty tomboys, like Jo in Little Women, eventually gave up on their dreams and their independence. The discussion is interlaced with moments from the author's own childhood that suggest how her developing self-interacted with these stories. She and her contemporaries, trying to reconcile their conservative reading with the changing world around them, learned ambivalence rather than confidence. Good Girl Messages also includes a discussion of books read by boys, who were depicted as purposeful, daring, and dominating.

Book Description
This personal account of contact with the spirit realm offers insight into the mysteries of death and concrete evidence that life continues on. For most of his adult life, therapist George Dalzell didn’t believe in contact beyond the grave. But his perspective on reality was forever shifted after his friend Michael was killed. Dalzell had counseled people who claimed to hear voices. Now he was hearing a voice himself—one that was unmistakably Michael. The voice revealed information about Michael’s private life and possessions. Other phenomena followed, including apparitions of Michael and rose petals left in the pattern of an angel. And Dalzell wasn’t alone. Michael opened the channels to seven friends and family members, providing incontrovertible signs that prove he was communicating with them. In Messages, Dalzell adds indisputable confirmation of life after death. His uplifting story can offer comfort to grieving families and calm our fears of passing into the next realm.
