Conference on children, media and race for Northwestern

June 8, 2011, Washington, D.C.
How should we interpret, explain and understand the differences in media use by children of different races and ethnicities? What are the broad implications for young people and society? These were the questions that Northwestern University’s Center on Media and Human Development wanted to address at its annual Lambert Family Communications Conference.  VJR Consulting brought together a lively and eclectic group of experts ranging from Federal Communications Commission member Mignon Clyburn to the head of MTV’s Latino network MTVTr3s and the Deputy Director of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration.
