By putting the language used in television, the radio, the internet and press, as well as that spoken by key leaders, under the spotlight, what is ultimately revealed is the existence of a 'white' language, both coded and overt.
Taking specific examples and presenting new factual evidence, John Gabriel studies the racial politics that lie behind much of the communication in the public arena. Case studies draw on contemporary political controversies and are used to explore the relationship between racialised forms of media discourse and political and economic change.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"While fundamentally espousing a progressive ideology, this well-researched book does a decent job of laying out opposing, more conservative arguments...The most appropriate audience is graduate students, researchers, faculty, and professionals."
