Seller's Description:
No Jacket. Berkeley. 2010. April 2010. University of California Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 9780520260870. 240 pages. paperback. 0. keywords: Media Education Youth Culture. DESCRIPTION-Drop That Knowledge is the first book to spotlight youth media activism. In community-based programs like Youth Radio in Oakland, California, students develop tools for self-expression and social analysis. Young producers, primarily working class youths and youths of color, make change happen by shifting the public discourse while reshaping their own trajectories of development. For example, when homicide rates peaked in Oakland, California, Youth Radio students combined spoken word poetry and street corner conversations in a moving audio snapshot of the everyday for young residents and their families. In a deeply personal commentary, one young woman reflected on the 'war inside her brain' and the impact of a bipolar disorder diagnosis. These and other Youth Radio stories air regularly on the country's premier media outlets, including National Public Radio newsmagazines reaching 27 million listeners and online platforms such as iTunes radio. The organization has been recognized with broadcast journalism's top honors, including the Alfred 1. DuPont Award, the George Foster Peabody Award, and the Edward R. Murrow Award. inventory #37629.
