Theorising childhood, visual culture, and technologyReviewsThe representation of the African American child and children of the colonial reaches of the British Empire is a crucial aspect of visual knowledge. In the first quarter of the 21st century the subjugation of Black youth and children through fatal racist violence continues, as do cultures of discrimination, imprisonment and abuse. It is necessary that histories of representation are written, read and widely taught. This book offers such a history, and will be of great benefit to high school and university students.--Stephanie Hemelryk Donald, University of Liverpool Author InformationKaren Wells is Acting Director Birkbeck Institute for Social Research and Reader in International Development and Childhood Studies, Department of Geography, Environment and Development Studies, Birkbeck, University of London Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
