Lives as a minority in Jersey City, Kamala Khan shows her Muslim identity moderately conducive to bear with the society. Therefore, this research aims to describe the representation of moderate Islam in Ms. Marvel (2022) TV series and the influence of those representations on Islam’s stereotypes in the United States media. This research uses descriptive qualitative method through cultural studies approach, that is supported by Stuart Hall’s representation and John Storey’s ideology theories. Furthermore, with the changes of superhero motifs in Ms. Marvel, authors presume that this invention effected to Ms. Marvel’s (2022) TV series popularity by transforming the negative stereotype of Islam into a positive one. The Marvel industry itself prepares minorities, especially Muslim hero performances to attract the entertainment market which is currently dominated by Muslims as the second world’s most adherents. The effect of moderate Islam representations on Ms. Marvel’s popularity is a further plan from this research. In fact, besides Ms. Marvel, another minority issue that is packaged as the core story of Marvel's entertainment production has become a separate marketing strategy for them. Therefore, the result of this research is that moderate Islam representations in Ms. Marvel (2022) TV Series are portrayed in numerous forms and constructs an opposition to Islam’s negative streotypes in the United States media.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze how irony is constructed in the film Get Out (2017) through the interplay between narrative elements and cinematic techniques. This study employs a qualitative method with a textual analysis approach to six scenes selected purposively based on the types of irony represented, such as situational irony, dramatic irony, and verbal irony. Data were collected through documentary analysis by repeatedly watching in the film, identifying scenes containing irony, and noting relevant dialogue and visual aspects. The results indicate that irony in the film emerges not only through the plot and dialogue but is also reinforced by cinematic techniques such as lighting, camera angles, and framing. These elements play a role in shaping the audience’s perception of the difference between the surface meaning and the hidden meaning. Thus, the interaction between narrative and cinematic elements produces a strong ironic effect while conveying social criticism of covert racist practices.

Abstract

In studies of diasporic literature, Salt Houses by Hala Alyan has frequently been examined through the lenses of trauma, displacement, and memory. However, less attention has been given to how silence operated as a mechanism through which these experiences were transmitted across generations. This study examined how inherited silence functioned not merely as the absence of speech, but as a force shaping memory, emotion, and diasporic identity. Tracing a Palestinian family across generations, the novel presented quietness and narrative gaps as embedded in both narrative form and everyday interaction. Drawing on Marianne Hirsch’s concept of postmemory and Stuart Hall’s theory of cultural identity, this study employed qualitative close reading of narrative gaps and silences within the text. The findings showed that the selective withholding of family history, emotional restraint, and epistemic gaps shaped the transmission of memory and the negotiation of diasporic identity across generations. More broadly, this study positioned silence as a communicative mode of transmission that extended existing discussions of postmemory and trauma beyond explicit narration and representation. By foregrounding silence as an active structure rather than a simple absence, this study contributed to broader discussions of intergenerational memory, diasporic belonging, and cultural identity formation. The study was limited to one literary text, which may have restricted broader generalizability.

Abstract

Pengabdian kepada masyarakat yang khusus diperuntukkan kepada kaum buruh sangatlah minim. Padahal kaum buruh merupakan salah satu elemen dalam masyarakat yang sering dianggap sebagai subaltern. Meskipun sering dianggap sebagai subaltern, namun tak bisa dipungkiri bahwa kaum buruh sangat berperan penting bagi keberhasilan pembangunan di suatu negara. Oleh karena itu, pengembangan keterampilan sosial para buruh yang dalam konteks ini yakni, meningkatkan keterampilan atau kecakapan dalam mengelola informasi, berkomunikasi, baik secara lisan maupun tulisan mesti diselenggarakan. Kemudian dalam kegiatan PKM ini, tim pengabdi melakukan pelatihan penulisan biografi untuk buruh yang terhimpun dalam Serikat Buruh Kerakyatan (SERBUK) di Kabupaten Karawang. Pelatihan penulisan biografi untuk buruh yang terhimpun dalam Serikat Buruh Kerakyatan (SERBUK) di Kabupaten Karawang ini bagi tim pengabdi dirasa menjadi salah satu hal krusial, upaya strategis, dan tentu penting untuk diselenggarakan.
