The Media Images Series examines the roles, treatment, and power issues of various minorities and segments of society. This Women's Images course will provide a critical analysis of the portrayals and effects of gender stereotyping, sexuality, and class representation. Through readings, screenings, and discussion we will probe ways that we have been influenced and explore alternative solutions as media-makers. Issues of who controls these images and how the media differentially serves the public and power holders will be examined in both news and entertainment media.
