"Catherine Luther, Naeemah Clark, and Carolyn Lepre haveauthored the most important, accessible, and comprehensive textbookon US media representations of minority and marginalized groupsthat has appeared for many years. With separate chapters dedicatedto Native Americans, African Americans, Hispanics, Arabs and ArabAmericans, Asian and Asian Americans, gender, LGBT, age, disabilityand social class, this sophisticated but highly readable text drawsfrom a wide range of research traditions including politicaleconomy, identity theory, media effects, and psychologicalimpacts."

"This publication has arrived at the right moment forstudents, researchers, and media professionals. Media should reflect a diverse society but often do not. Luther, Clark, and Lepre have presented material that should be amust-read for those in a modern society, or those hoping to createone."
- Douglas A. Boyd, Professor of Communication, University ofKentucky
