The Black Media Studies minor provides students with an interdisciplinary exploration of Black media, culture, and representation. This minor critically examines the role of Black media in shaping cultural narratives and identities. Students engage with a variety of media forms, including film, television, music, and digital media, to understand the historical and contemporary contributions of Black creators and communities.

The minor is designed to complement a wide range of major degree programs, providing valuable insights and critical thinking skills applicable to careers in media, communications, social sciences, and the arts. Students who complete the minor will be equipped to contribute thoughtfully to discussions about diversity and representation in media.
