Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs

Write about what you think this all means. What do non-white audiences do with this (very) white material? If the point of pop culture is in part to find common ground with the characters you see, what does it mean that the VERY large majority of those characters are white; what does it mean especially if you are a non-white consumer of pop culture? Do you feel that pop culture in this way fails those who are not white, and those who are not privileged enough to find (actual) common ground with the characters on TV, film? I have always been so interested in these questions, and it fascinates me to hear from students who are very invested in pop culture as pop culture is connected to race. So this paper should touch upon all of these issues--the largest one being: what are the real-life consequences of what seems to be a very race-specific agenda by those who design the material that we all (regardless of race) consume? What are the consequences in the mind of the non-white consumer who must consume white pop culture in order to fit in with the people around us who are also consuming this white pop culture?
