How Does Gothic Horror Portray Marginalized Groups? - The Horror Reel

How Does Gothic Horror Portray Marginalized Groups? Gothic horror has a unique way of portraying marginalized groups, often reflecting societal fears and anxieties related to race and gender. In this thought-provoking video, we will examine how Gothic narratives have historically depicted women and people of color, often casting them in roles that highlight societal prejudices. We will discuss key works from the Gothic tradition, looking at how authors like Edgar Allan Poe and Toni Morrison have used the genre to comment on the treatment of marginalized communities.

From the symbolism of animal characters to the representation of villains, we will analyze how these narratives serve to project societal fears onto marginalized groups. We'll also explore the impact of these portrayals in modern horror films, where racial stereotypes continue to shape narratives. Join us as we unpack the complexities of Gothic horror and its implications for understanding marginalized identities in both historical and contemporary contexts.
