Increasing linkage to hepatitis C care following trauma‐informed rehabilitation
Accessing hepatitis C direct acting antivirals among people living with hepatitis C
Despite the availability of curative therapies, access to such treatment for people who inject drugs is limited by stigma enacted in and structured within healthcare encounters. Developing novel, low-threshold delivery programs that remove power differentials and attend to the social and structural determinants of health and reinfection are needed to facilitate further scale up of DAAs and support the goal of eradicating hepatitis C as a public h…
From direct engagement to technical support
INTRODUCTION: In 2011, through a multipartner Integrated Family Health Initiative (IFHI), CARE started supporting maternal and neonatal health (MNH) improvement goals in 8 of 38 districts in Bihar, India. The programme included a frontline health worker (FHW) component offering health advice through household visits and benefited from CARE's direct engagement during IFHI, which then evolved into statewide Technical Support Unit (TSU) to the Gover…

Improving primary health care delivery in Bihar, India
In 2010, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) partnered with the Government of Bihar (GoB), India to launch the Ananya program to improve reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health and nutrition (RMNCHN) outcomes. The program sought to address supply-and demand-side barriers to the adoption, coverage, quality, equity and health impact of select RMNCHN interventions.

The global surgery blood drought
BACKGROUND: Limited access to safe, timely banked blood is a critical barrier to providing basic surgical care in resource-limited settings globally. Contextual, locally driven data are required to elucidate country needs, develop effective interventions, and guide policy decisions. OBJECTIVE: We employ qualitative methodology to describe barriers faced and solutions proposed by front-line obstetric providers in Bihar - a poor, populous Indian st…
Color-Blind Racism in Television News and Commentary
When Andrew Breitbart released a video of Shirley Sherrod seemingly confessing to racism, journalists quickly turned the story into one of transformation in which a purportedly racist African American is redeemed by her embrace of a color-blind society. Guided by the concept of color-blind racism, this analysis of television news and commentary shows that U.S. television network news and commentary constructed a narrative arc involving accusation…
Legitimizing Neglect
This article examines the ways conservative news media, conservative commentators, and conservative leaders talked about the predominantly Black and poor residents of New Orleans who remained in the city as Hurricane Katrina struck. One month of conservative commentary was assembled from (a) the highest circulation daily newspapers that endorsed Bush in 2004; (b) leading conservative magazines; and (c) leading conservative commentators. A close r…
Communication and marginal sites
This article uses the Chipko movement in northeastern India to propose an additional way to think alternatively about communication and development. The Chipko movement took place in the 1970s. Movement members demanded better local resource management by the state and for a greater voice in the determining the use of the local forests. Acknowledging that alternatives to the dominant paradigm of communication and development already exist (the pa…
Reconsidering Geometries of Development
We argue that the dominant geometry of development should be discarded, given the many limitations this model imposes on development policies and programs. Following a description of the dominant geometry of development, we critique this conceptualization based on grounds of morality and validity. Referencing illustrations of Japan as a development donor and the Chipko movement as an engaged community, we argue that new alternative geometries of …
Newspaper Coverage of Interethnic Conflict
"Newspaper Coverage of Interethnic Conflict: Competing Visions of America examines mainstream and ethnic minority news coverage of interethnic conflicts in Miami, Washington, D.C., and Los Angeles. Authors Hemant Shah and Michael C. Thornton investigate the role of news in racial formation, the place of ethnic minority media in the public sphere, and how these competing visions of America are part of ongoing social and political struggles to cons…
"Reading and Using Mass Communication Research on the "Other
Long Ago and Far Away
This article examines how US general-circulation newspapers construct and convey the idea of racial oppression. A Nexis database search found 146 news items published between 1990 and 2001 prominently using the phrase ‘racial oppression’. Content analysis numerically coded the ‘facts’ of racial oppression (that is the ‘who, what, when, where, why, and how’) and a number of other structural features of the articles. Interpretive textual analysis c…
“Asian Culture” and Asian American Identities in the Television and Film Industries of the United States
“Asian” culture has long been fodder for films and television shows produced in the United States. Four main stereotypes of Asians and Asian Americans emerged from the imagination of primarily white cultural producers in Hollywood: “Yellow Peril,” “Dragon Lady,” “Charlie Chan,” and “Lotus Blossom.” These images can be understood as “controlling images” in the sense that negative stereotypes provide justifications for social control and positive s…
"Racial Ideology, Model Minorities, and the "Not-So-Silent Partner
As one of the most visible and powerful media institutions of U.S. popular culture, advertising plays a central role in conveying and disseminating a dominant racial ideology. After establishing an analytical framework based on the relationship between racial ideology and stereotypes of Asian Americans, this study investigates how Asian Americans are represented in American news magazines advertising and how racial ideology is embedded within tho…
Communication and Nation Building
This article compares two models of communication and nation building developed in the US. Daniel Lerner's model of communication and modernization, created in political and academic centers of the US from the 1960s onward, mirrors the thinking about communication and ethnic assimilation developed by Robert Park in the early part of the 20th-century US. Both models say an increase in shared characteristics among social groups and an increasing so…

Both parts of the chapter define the scope of the areas discussed, summarize the main theoretical approaches, and present major trends in research. The chapter concludes with suggestions for future research
Race, Nation, and Citizenship
For much of U.S. history, only people designated ''white'' could be citizens. However, the meaning of ''white'' and the qualities associated with whiteness have been the subject of much contestation. In the early 1900s, disagreements over meaning of the term created ambiguity for the social and political status of Asian Indians because their complexion was dark but they were ethnologically Caucasian. This study examines how centers of institution…
Modernization, Marginalization, and Emancipation
The idea of "development journalism," central to many discussions of mass communication and development in the Third World, needs to be reconceptualized because deliberations about its validity and usefulness have been bogged down in arguments structured by Western notions of press freedom. The debate has diverted attention from important questions about how journalism can contribute to participatory democracy, security, peace, and other humanist…
Racial ideology in U. S. mainstream news magazine coverage of black‐Latino interaction, 1980–1992
Rapidly changing demographics over the past decade or so have brought blacks and Latinos into political and social conflict over scare resources. Despite the importance and implications of these conflicts for American social relations—and especially for the 52.3 million blacks and Latinos in the United States—there has been little news coverage of the conflicts and almost no research on how black‐Latino interaction is depicted in news media. Beca…

Race and the transformation of culture
When ABC acquired the broadcast rights to Alex Haley's epic slave narrative Roots, the television program became a creation of an institution run mostly by and for whites. Haley's novel was transformed from a critique of slavery, white cruelty, and indifference into a classic immigrant story that diluted the horror, complexities, and seriousness of slavery as a societal institution. By examining an ideology of race within the framework of the pro…
