Frontmatter and Editorial

Year: 2024
Type: paratext
Abstract: In lieu of an abstract, here is the first paragraph of the frontmatter and editorial: Face to Race — Gender, Ethnicity and the Media is the fourth issue of gender forum to address the nexus of race and gender, this time with an emphasis on audiovisual media. Television and film have been of key concern for cultural studies, and certain strategies in media representation have been shown to apply across dimensions of ethnic, sexual, economic or religious difference. This issue addresses the question whether diversity transcending discreet categories of difference does and can find representation beyond the fringes of our mediascapes. Frequently, media representations seemingly progressive in regard to either race or gender turn out to be deplorably heteronormative or eurocentric.
