Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0415921635, Paperback)Although much has been written about the impact of technology on our daily lives, little attention has been paid to the effects of cyberspace on racial politics and identity. This collection of twelve essays explores this surprisingly underexamined aspect of cyberculture studies as it tackles a broad range of questions: the role played by language in the construction of racialized identities online; offline representations of cyberspace as a racially coded environment; and the impact technology and education has on racial inequities-in terms of access and representation on the web. Groundbreaking and timely, Race in Cyberspace brings to light the important yet vastly overlooked intersection of race and cyberspace.Contributors: David Crane, Jennifer González, Beth E. Kolko, Joe Lockard, Tara McPherson, Lisa Nakamura, Jeffrey A. Ow, Gilbert B. Rodman, David Silver, Jonathan Sterne, Rajani Sudan, Mark Warschauer.
