About Bisma Fida

Bisma strongly believes pop culture shapes human lives. She is particularly concerned about the media portrayals of gender, class, race, and sexuality on television, their intersectionality, and ultimately how audiences perceive each of these constructs. She has covered a mixture of sitcoms, anime, dramas, and movies at ScreenRant since October 2019. Bisma is a Political Science and Communications major. Much of her formal research interests are centered around areas of gender, communication, and development with a specific focus on ICT4D, C4D, and Gender and Media. She likes to spend her spare time devouring Chomsky, Edward Said, Guy Debord, Louis Althusser, Maxwell E. McCombs, Donald Lewis Shaw, Judith Butler, and Simone de Beauvoir. In that light, she strongly suggests you pick up Said's Orientalism or Beauvoir's Second Sex. Neither are recreational, but they will deconstruct your social reality.
