Spectacles of Sexuality: Televisionary Activism in Nicaragua by Cymene Howe.

  1. In the article, Howe asserts that gay and lesbian characters do not match/relate to the perception of “real” gays & lesbians in the community. Assuming this is true, are these NGO funded television shows effective in their goal?
  2. Are there any such North American equivalents that are trying to promote social justice (as mentioned in the article)?
  3. Are gays and lesbians represented accurately on North American TV?
