Document Summary
Identity is a major factor in political mobilization. Identity is multi-faceted and relational: relational shaped through influence of others (identity) Intersectional analysis/critique is a method for unpacking the interlocking matrix of oppression. Nationalism belonging and exclusion: nationalism can take the form of a weapon to exclude others. Images produced for consumption that show specific materials: reflect our world through us through objects. Ways of seeing: what is made visible and invisible to us. Who does the representing? (who makes the representation?) How do they get represented: women in popular films are seldom represented in their own right, how they get represented in the media. Political economy: what enables the image to be made and to be circulated. Audience reception: how the image is received. ^^ the three dimensions: representational analysis looking at the language and the code. The relation between what we see and what we know is never settled.
