About this book
American popular culture has a rich potential for delivering the narratives of the American people, who are often confined by their race, ethnicity, gender, social class, economic situation, or, in very simple terms, by the conditions of their birth. In this context, the volume focuses on the confinement narratives within the products of popular culture, displaying how movies, documentaries, authors, and artists explore the theme of confinement.
