Gender in Black and White: Examining Interracial Relationships in ShondaLand
Get PDFShonda Rhimes has been credited for crafting progressive television dramas that attract millions of viewers. Scholars have found that through the use of tactics like colorblind casting, Rhimes unintentionally creates problematic relationships between characters. Focusing on production techniques and dialogue, this paper examines episodes from two of her most popular shows, How To Get Away With Murder and Scandal. This paper argues that while the shows pursue progressive material, the shows present African-American female characters that require partners. Further, both white male characters negatively influence the women s independence. Through media representations, Shonda Rhimes shows reinforce inequality of race and gender through media
@ctress to @ctivist: Sophia Bush\u27s Activism & Self-Branding Through Twitter
Get PDFThis study analyzes actress Sophia Bush s Twitter account in terms of activism and self-branding, as she tweets out daily to millions of followers. While scholars have studied social media use for other celebrities in terms of self-branding, none have looked at the celebrity use of social media for activism. One hundred tweets from Bush s Twitter page are randomly selected and categorized in order to determine what kind of social media presence Bush creates. It is concluded that Bush s brand goes beyond her profession of an actress and includes her activist Twitter presence to where her title becomes actress-activist, and her self-branding is through both her television/film work and activism
People, Planet, Profit: Benefit and B Certified Corporations - Comprehension and Outlook of Business Students
Get PDFThis paper is an overview of the emergence of Benefit and Certified B Corporations that aim to realize a profit and make a positive impact on society as measured by some third party standard. In this way, these corporations differ in corporate purpose from traditional C corporations. Directors and managers are accountable for that defined public benefit. Considerations of sustainable business practices have existed in many industries for several years. However, the recent growth in legislation to create a legal framework for Benefit Corporations is newly emergent. An examination of recent literature explains the rise of these socially responsible organizations, identifies the states which allow incorporation and clarify the distinctions between Benefit and Certified B businesses. In addition, a small case study of business students in specific graduate and undergraduate classes at a liberal arts college was performed through an anonymous online survey and anecdotal data. Results were analyzed for knowledge of these types of corporations; perceptions of the impact of Benefit Corporations; and the level of interest in working for such an entity. Descriptive statistics were utilized to describe the sample of graduate and undergraduate students
