Encoding/Decoding
Encoding/decoding is an influential theoretical model of media production and consumption, first advanced by the British cultural studies scholar Stuart Hall.

Coexistent with White youth fascination with hip-hop culture and African American athletes and celebrities is the continuing manifestation of White youth resistance to programs that challenge institutional racism and the …
