Summary: | "More girls are producing media today than at any other point in U.S. history, and they are creating it in virtually every format currently possible. Tracing the sites in U.S. society where girls' media production is currently encouraged and supported, Girls Make Media analyzes girls' creative expression and identity exploration through the films, zines, and websites they produce. Through close analyses of girl-made media and the communities and social contexts that inspire their creation and facilitate their diffusion, Kearney furthers our understanding of not only contemporary girlhood and girls' culture, but also American popular culture."--The Publisher. |
