Controlling images-gendered depictions of African Americans in the media-define hegemonic masculinity in opposition by showing what it is not.
“Collins contends that 'controlling images' (2004: 165) - gendered depictions of African Americans in the media - define hegemonic masculinity in opposition by showing what it is not.”
From A Critical and Comprehensive Sociological Theory of Race and Racism (2016) · cites this paper as Collins (2004)
The Introduction (pp. 7, 21) says Black gender ideology shapes ideas about masculinity and that media images provide social scripts for how to behave as a Black man or woman. The passages do not establish the more specific claim that controlling images define hegemonic masculinity by showing what it is not. (LLM, conf=0.79)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe idea of controlling images can be applied to Latinos, Native Americans, Asians, and Arabs.
“In addition, Collins' analysis can be extended to other groups, as the idea of 'controlling images' also can be applied to Latinos, Native Americans, Asians, and Arabs.”
From A Critical and Comprehensive Sociological Theory of Race and Racism (2016) · cites this paper as Collins (2004)
In the introduction (page not supplied), Collins says that many of her arguments may apply to Puerto Ricans, indigenous peoples, Chicanos, Vietnamese, and Cambodians, while stressing each group’s distinctive history. This supports extending her analysis to several of the groups named, but the passage does not specifically extend the idea of controlling images to them or mention Arabs. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredAn understanding of how racial ideologies are promulgated must be intersectional.
“the work of Collins (2004) helps us perceive that an understanding of how racial ideologies are promulgated must be intersectional.”
From A Critical and Comprehensive Sociological Theory of Race and Racism (2016) · cites this paper as Collins (2004)
'Controlling images' of black, Latino, and Arab men as threatening have served as discursive fodder for the implementation of state repression.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
