{"product_id":"african-americans-in-television-gregory-adamo-9781433110399","title":"African Americans in Television: Behind the Scenes","description":"From \u003ci\u003eFrank's Place\u003c\/i\u003e through \u003ci\u003eSoul Food\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eGirlfriends\u003c\/i\u003e, the increased involvement of African Americans in the production of television images has impacted the way television portrays the diversity of American life. Yet little research has been done to explore how minority television workers see their role as creators. This book explores television and race from the perspective of industry writers, producers, directors, and executives. Listening to those directly involved in bringing diversity to television helps uncover the process whereby difference is created and recreated in both the workplace, and on the television screen. Suitable for classes in race, gender, media, media culture, diversity and the media, and African Americans and popular culture, the book will also be of interest to those wishing to enter the television industry, providing insight from workers who have succeeded in an increasingly competitive business.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gregory Adamo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1433110393\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781433110399\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Inc., International Academic Publi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/03\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 202\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.45d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2011 pg. 225","brand":"Gregory Adamo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46420267860223,"sku":"9781433110399","price":47.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_582d26d9-531a-4ed0-8edf-3b4a6faeb719.jpg?v=1734634131","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/african-americans-in-television-gregory-adamo-9781433110399","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
