Contributors argue that while many minoritized groups continue to be targeted by stereotypes and myths that have lingered for centuries, satire and comedy can be powerful tools for reversing harmful narratives and generating accurate, authentic, and inclusive representations. Scholars of media studies, popular culture, rhetoric, and race will find this book particularly useful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart I: Satire as Opposition\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Atonement: What Reparations and Racial Justice Look Like on Atlanta\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: #ColoradoBorderWall: Mimetic Discourse as Emancipation\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Reservation Dogs, Visual Sovereignty, Performative Indigeneity, and the Cultural Imperative of Native American-Produced Media\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4: “Voldemort under My Headscarf”: The Oppositional Muslim Gaze of We are Lady Parts\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Class is in Session: Abbott Elementary’s “Step Class” and the Oppositional Gaze as Counter-Hegemonic Practice\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Squid Game: South Korea’s View of Itself and the West\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Alternative Media and Representation: An Outsider’s Construction of Race on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart II: Satire, Challenges and Missed Opportunities\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 8: Just Jokes?
