"Skripsi ini melihat bagaimana “American dream” dari tokoh utama kulit putih Max Clack dan Caroline Channing, yang merupakan ide utama serial sitkom 2 Broke Girls (2011), menjadi pemicu untuk menunjukkan adanya keterlibatan tokoh-tokoh etnis minoritas dalam perwujudan “American dream” kedua tokoh kulit putih tersebut. Menggunakan konsep “American dream” sebagai pendekatan, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat adanya rasisme yang terkandung dalam sitkom ini. Pengamatan atas episode-episode dalam sitkom dilakukan untuk melihat keterlibatan, penokohan, dan hubungan para tokoh etnis minoritas dengan tokoh WASP. Analisis tekstual didukung juga dengan konteks stereotip dan rasisme di tengah masyarakat Amerika, terutama dalam media televisi sitkom. Skripsi ini menunjukkan bahwa “American dream” lebih berlaku untuk tokoh kulit putih daripada yang lain. Setiap individu, apapun latar belakangnya, dapat mencapai sukses di Amerika (rasisme). Dalam sitkom ini, yang lebih mendominasi adalah cita-cita dua orang gadis W.A.S.P., sedangkan tokoh-tokoh dengan latar belakang minoritas hanya menjadi pendukung.

"Tidak pernah terbayangkan sebelumnya bahwa generasi penerus dari masa perbudakan, akhirnya memenangkan Pemilu dan memimpin bangsa Amerika secara demokratis. Kecerdasan bangsa Amerika dan kesadaran berkonstitusilah yang memungkinkan hal tersebut terjadi. Tetapi faktor emosi sangat mempengaruhi hasil Pemilu Amerika Serikat ini. Obama telah memanfaatkan semaksimal mungkin pendekatan emosional ini kepada para pemilih kulit berwarna dan kulit putih sekaligus dalam setiap kampanyenya. Ditambah serangan-serangan kasar oleh kubu Mc Cain, terutama oleh Sarah Palin, yang tidak dibahas oleh kubu Obama, telah menyentuh secara emosional perasaan sebagian besar para pemilih untuk memihak Obama."

This study examines the importance of media representation for minority groups in The United States of America based on a character in the TV series, The 100. The death of the character, Lexa, initated a movement called LGBT Fans Deserve Better, which demands for positive LGBT representations on television. This study uses qualitative approach and a reception based content analysis method to examine the reasons why the LGBT community is strongly affected by the character and her death. The data collected include tweets, tumblr posts, and website content.

The findings show that Lexa rsquo s powerful influence is the result of The 100 rsquo s success in representing LGBT community through her character. This success is demonstrated by her ability to show LGBT community visibility, which in turns helps them find a recognition and rectify the misrepresentaion of their community. LGBT Fans Deserve Better movement is a result of the disappointment and the outrage of the community brought by Lexa rsquo s death, for Lexa is perceived as the best representation for the community."

"SynopsisA half-century of battles between pro-development forces and neighborhood defenders has reshaped the urban political landscape. Conflicts exist in cities around the world between economic forces favoring development and protectors of neighborhood distinctiveness. What is different is that outcomes are no longer as pre-determined as in the past. Through a series of well-informed and perceptive case studies, the authors identify an important incremental shift in urban policy from a narrow preoccupation with land use toward greater concern with people.Revitalization policies have become viewed as an iterative and ongoing process rather than as a package of fixed products. While inequality and neighborhood distress remain pressing challenges for urban communities everywhere, this volume demonstrates that the possibilities for responding are more fluid and, hopefully, more effective than ever before. --Blair Ruble, Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars"
