Stereotypes of Muslim Women in the United States

Media Primes and Consequences

• Broschiertes Buch

This book presents evidence that verbal and visual symbols in the media can activate implicit prejudices towards Muslim women in the United State and that social liberals, not social conservatives, can control activation. Authors suggest media and intrapersonal interventions to mitigate the harmful consequences of gendered Islamophobia.
