Francesca Sobande

The Digital Lives of Black Women in Britain

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Based on interviews and archival research, this book explores how media is implicated in Black women's lives in Britain. From accounts of twentieth-century activism and television representations, to experiences of YouTube and Twitter, Sobande's analysis traverses tensions between digital culture's communal, counter-cultural and commercial qualities.
