Equal Time: Television and the Civil Rights Movement explores the crucial role of network television in reconfiguring new attitudes in race relations during the civil rights movement. Due to widespread coverage, the civil rights revolution quickly became the United States first televised major domestic news story.

She also examines the most highprofile and controversial television series of the era to feature African American actorsEast Side/West Side, Julia, and Good Timesto reveal how entertainment programmers sought to represent a rapidly shifting consensus on what blackness and whiteness meant and how they now fit together.

While I enjoyed some parts of the book, it didn’t stick with me as much as I hoped. The insights into media communication were good, but I found the pace a bit slow at times. Still, it’s informative if you’re into this subject.

Disappointed with the Content
I was expecting a more engaging narrative but found this book rather dry. The historical details are there, but the writing style didn’t capture my interest. I wouldn’t recommend it unless you're really focused on this topic.

A Must-Read for History Buffs
As a media studies major, I found this book to be incredibly insightful. It dives deep into how television influenced the Civil Rights Movement, which is something I hadn’t considered before. The writing is engaging and well-researched, making it a great addition to my collection.

Great for Learning About Media's Role
This book does an excellent job highlighting how television shaped public opinion during the Civil Rights Movement. I bought it for a class project, and it provided just the right balance of detail and accessibility. Definitely worth the read!

Informative but Slightly Dense
I appreciated the depth of information in this book, but some sections felt a bit heavy to get through. The chronology of events and media coverage during the Civil Rights Movement was fascinating, though. Overall, it’s a solid read if you enjoy history.
