Diversity Balance Practices

Did you know that historical patterns of exclusion have fueled the demand for more authentic narratives, and the book builds upon existing studies in queer theory, race, disability and gender studies? The book's approach combines theoretical analysis with practical application. It progresses through four sections: defining core concepts, analyzing case studies in film, television, literature, and digital platforms, exploring creative practices that promote diversity balance like inclusive casting and sensitivity reading, and offering guidelines for creators and policymakers.

By scrutinizing media representation and its impact, “Diversity Balance Practices” strives to provide strategies for developing diversity and inclusion policies, informing educational resources, and enriching public discourse on LGBTQ+ rights and social justice.
