Pick an emergent media (digital, mobile, internet-based, or social media, as opposed to more traditional forms of media) text that represents women and/or girls. Your “text” can be a web page, series of memes, an influencer, an Instagram or TikTok account, online activism, etc.–any emergent media text that you can write an in-depth intersectional analysis of is fair game. *You may use the text you focused on in this Module’s discussion and this paper will obviously involve research and in-depth analysis.
Write a 4-5 page in-depth, intersectional critical analysis of your text that considers it in historical context, its form, and its conditions of production (who created it, was it mass-marketed, viral, etc.), and its intended audience. You may also want to focus on audience and/or fan response to emergent media, or a response to something via emergent media. Other media scholars may have written about your chosen text, and if so it’s important that you read what they have to say so that you can then join the conversation already happening about that text, as with your last paper. But if not given that new media is the focus of this assignment, locate your text in history as part of a trajectory. For instance, Kim Kardashian may be one of the first influencers, but is she the first woman to influence viewers and consumers? Is she the first celebrity to appropriate Black cultures?
You must include a total of 4 scholarly sources, 2 of which may be from your textbook/course materials, and 2 outside sources.Additional supplementary sources such as news media articles are welcome and encouraged, especially because conversations about your text may be happening on the web, Twitter, etc. too and are therefore relevant to your research. Do keep in mind that those are supplementary rather than scholarly sources.
