Race and Teen TV: A New Cycle of Representation?

(Title)

Abstract

Whilst Teen TV is a thriving and popular genre, it remains underrepresented in academic literature. This is despite the genre’s strong links to political, cultural, and social events. One such area that has been influenced by shifting societal sensibilities is the representation of race. This project builds upon existing research into race representation in Teen TV dramas that aired before #BlackLivesMatter and the election of Donald Trump. There has not yet been research into race representation in Teen TV after these events. Therefore, this project uses textual analysis and critical media industry studies to analyse and discuss the representation of race in two recent Teen TV dramas: Good Trouble (2019-Present) and Grand Army (2020). Drawing from Critical Race Theory, this project argues that the two selected Teen TV dramas specifically acknowledge race, racial discrimination, and racial difference. An intersectional and structural approach is taken to analyse the narratives, which reveals not only the shows’ acknowledgement of race but also of difference to all hegemonic norms. This project concludes that the racial specificity in the narratives and productions of Good Trouble and Grand Army are indicative of a new cycle of race representation in Teen TV dramas.
