in an intimidating environment etc...

8. Ethnic Stereotypes in the Media
• When we think about the representation of ethnicity it’s
important to remember Alvarado’s (1987) stereotypes in
the representation of ethnicity and race:
• EXOTIC
• DANGEROUS
• PITIED
• HUMOUROUS
• And a recent revision of this has added the
SEXUALISED stereotype.
– to what extent are these stereotypes reinforced or
contradicted in this extract?

9. Ethnic Stereotypes in the Media
- Unity and Conflict
• It’s also important to recognise that representation of
ethnicity is characterised by UNITY and CONFLICT
• Unity is often an element of the representation of
ethnicity, this hits a stereotype of ethnicity, that of close
families and tight communities.
• A cliche of Ethnic minorities in the extract are shown
united by religious beliefs, games and work as well as
ethnicity and culture.
10. Ethnic Stereotypes in the Media
- Unity and Conflict
• Conflict is often the binary opposition of ethnic groups
and the wider society.
• Even when ethnic groups are assimilated (merged) into
wider society, difference and diversity is emphasised
through representation.
• You can see evidence of this in an extract from Spooks
