How Hate Speech Paves the Way For Harmful Social Movements
Destructive Messages argues that hate speech is not dangerous only when it poses an immediate threat of harm. It is also dangerous when it is systematically developed over time, becoming part of a culturally acceptable dialogue which can foster the persecution of minorities.
Explores the interaction of race and law enforcement in the controversial area of hate crime. Bell includes in her work the experiences of detectives who are women, Black, Latino, and Asian American, exploring the impact of the racial identity of both the hate crime victim and the officers' handling of bias crimes.
What is the relation between film, race and culture? How does the cinema reproduce and challenge myths of racial segregation and discrimination? In this elegant and insightful book, one of America's leading commentators on culture and society turns his gaze upon cinematic race relations, an area strangely under-played in publications on race and ethnicity. Denzin argues that: * the cinema reflects the creed of treating all persons as equal but, along with the rest of society, struggles to define and implement diversity, pluralism and multiculturalism * Hollywood's cinema of racial violence, the so-called ghetto action film cycle, contributes to the production of new racial discourses which twin race with a culture of violence * the cinema needs to honour racial and ethnic difference He relates the cinema of racial violence to the civil rights movement. The politics of difference means definining race in terms of both an opposition to, and acceptance of, the media's interpretations and representations of the American racial order. Acute, richly illustrated and timely, the book deepens our understanding of the politics of race and the symbolic complexity of segregation and discrimination. It combines the concrete with the theoretical with deft aplomb.
