White Media, White Terror and Hate Speech: Re-inventing Violence Against Minorities.
It is no secret that the white-controlled media is largely responsible for the language that is used for constructing public ideas about racial identities. This paper will try to elaborate on how whiteness maintains inequality and racism through an authoritative practice of identifying hate-based crimes on the basis of identities. This paper will also argue that the media effectively perpetuates racism, homophobia, anti-Semitism, and other acts of oppression through language practices and speech acts. 5 pgs. 16 f/c. 8b.
