Book Review: The Routledge Companion to Media and Race

Abstract

In recent years, Routledge has published several works on various aspects of race and media, including The Race and Media Reader, edited by Gilbert B. Rodman (2014). The book under review complements Rodman’s earlier work, although it has a different purpose and focus within this well-studied subject. Campbell also carves out a bit of space for his work in a crowded field by concentrating solely on race and media as opposed to coupling them with gender and/or class, as is often the case.
