Abstract

Drawing from a larger study, this qualitative investigation examined how seven undergraduate Black males perceived their representation in today's new digital, media-driven society as they persisted in college. Utilizing biographical questionnaires and one-on-one semi-structured interviews, two major themes emerged from the data: (a) negative stereotypes in media and (b) the fallacy of a postracial society. The findings provided useful and applicable insight on how Black male students may construct and project a healthy identity in today's digital media culture.
