AFRICAN AMERICANS IN TELEVISION - GREGORY ADAMO...

From Frank's Place through Soul Food and Girlfriends  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.
