| Abstract | In a world in which social media, visual images, and instant messaging are the everyday realities of today's young people, films and videos play a crucial role in developing a critical understanding of how social, economic, political, and cultural structures mediate the lives of youth. As teaching tools and cultural media, videos, and films offer frameworks through which one can access the political and cultural realities of the world in which racialized minority and immigrant youth live. In as much as youth see themselves represented in various media, they can also learn to critically question identity, representation, and ideologies. In this article, the authors look at the stories that four films--"Warrior Boys, Family Motel, Invisible City," and "Colour Blind"--communicate about racial minority and immigrant youth in Canada. They are especially interested in how the films engage issues of racialization, racism and colonization, as well as anti-racism and anti-colonialism. They reflect on the racialized norms within these films noting the particularity of their storylines: their starting points, assumptions, and agendas; how they employ examples; their moral undertone; and the roles of the antagonists. They discuss the extent to which the videos reinscribe or challenge existing images of racialized youth, and/or provide critical insights into the colonization and racialization process.
