DETOURS THROUGH YOUTH-DRIVEN MEDIA: BACKSEAT DRIVERS BEAR WITNESS TO THE ETHICAL DILEMMAS OF YOUTH MEDIA

Lora Taub-pervizpour (Muhlenberg College)

Resumo

In media made by young people, we witness a realm of media practice where it is possible for youth to intentionally adopt positions as cultural. In these acts, young people are seen to confront the deep and proliferating ways in which corporate mass mediated culture constructs and exploits young people as consumers. For young people to assume the stance of media maker is widely held to be a resistive, agentive act. This paper stands in solidarity with media researchers whose਍ഀ scholarly activity attempts to fortify youth media making programs while tracing the political economic pressures that shape and constrain the possibilities of young people’s media production.
