- Abstract:
- The central objective of this paper is to analyze anti-immigrant rhetoric towards Syrian refugees in the framework of Barker’s (2001) ‘new racism’ (cultural racism) on YouTube. This mediated-cultural racism is, in principle, based on the idea that third world migrants are a group of “othered-others,” who disrupt the taken-for-granted stable national identity and economy in immigrés’ countries such as Canada and Turkey. We mobilized content analysis on users’ comments on a selection of YouTube videos produced in Canada (English Canada) and in Turkey. We analyze the first 10 most-watched videos from each country, in English and Turkish languages, and collected through a search for “Syrian Refugees” and “Suriyeli Mülteciler” on YouTube.
