Newspapers
Social protest newspapers serve two very distinct functions in social protest literature. First, newspapers act as means to disseminate important information about marginalized groups to marginalized groups. A newspaper that has a specific target audience, one that is not controlled by the dominant culture, can easily react and relate relevant information to marginalized people. It can cover issues that are of particular relevance to a marginalized group, but might not be of interest to the general public. Secondly, social protest newspapers are a way to deconstruct myths about marginalized people by providing a realistic portrayal of everyday life.
