Framed: How Popular Media Boxes In Black Identity

  • Summary

  • Have you ever noticed how modern media often boxes Black people into narrow, repetitive roles? The angry or sassy Black woman. The criminal. The loyal sidekick. The athlete. The entertainer. These tropes have dominated screens for decades — and the portrayal of Black people as ordinary, multi-dimensional human beings is still rare. But these images aren't just fiction; they shape how society sees — and treats — Black people in real life. On today’s episode, we’re unpacking the media’s role in shaping perception, identity, and culture.
