i feel like a lot of white americans are just now realising that so much mainstream media is catered directly for them, which is why it& #39;s so important to consume every type of media with a critical eye. how and why is it pushing the narrative that white americans are the heroes?
as a white person who& #39;s not american, so much of the media i consumed when i was younger was american. it painted a false image of what america is actually like in my head, which i& #39;m still unlearning to this day
i always saw myself on screen. we can all agree that white people are hideously overrepresented in mainstream media. but so much of it was also catered directly to americans - their government, their military, their superheroes.
how many non-americans wanted to move there when we were younger because of this false image the media painted in our heads?
i know i used to. but we& #39;re all relearning our perception of america, right?
