“…33 According to Martin Orkin and Alexa Joubin, some of the assumptions related to foreigners across history involved 'location outside the city, strange habitat, incomprehensible speech, odd diet, exotic or immodest dress, and abhorrent social customs'. 34 Adil is from rural Indiain marked contrast with Delhi, where most of the actors are fromand is ill-at-ease in English becaues his mother tongue is Assamese, which nobody can understand. As Othello, he is portrayed half-naked most of the time (usually wearing a sleeveless t-shirt or a bare torso), and an outsider all the time.…”

In Othello (2003) offers both a critique and inadvertent affirmation of racial and colonial hierarchies and a reflection on the postcolonial nation. The film fosters Orientalist sensibilities via a fetishisation of ‘otherness’, in order to subvert it. It is a hybrid and ambivalent production in which the characters possess intersectional identities that are always multiple, in line with Hindu philosophy. This hybridity can also be observed in the mixture of traditions on which the film is based, and as such, it serves as a ‘rhizomatic interrelation’. The film shows how Shakespeare's play may provide a meditation on the Indian nation, where issue ssuch as transgressive romance, ostracisation, and gender roles remain unsettled.

“…On the other hand, otherness understood as an emphasis on being oneself without attempting to be as the other, bypassing the social order or societal expectations and constructions. Thus, enabling the establishment of a person’s own identity through his or her status as another (Orkin and Joubin, 2019). Moreover, the ways in which these symbolic representations are constructed can also establish sameness—for example, when using Benson’s (2013) humanitarian frame in a “we are all human” configuration.…”

#MigrantCaravan: The border wall and the establishment of otherness on Instagram

Recent media attention aimed at migrant caravans at the US-Mexico border has increased interest from different actors in the political and social spheres. Parallel to traditional and mainstream media, social media has become the prime context where narratives about the border develop, moulding broader societal perspectives on the immigration issue. Through a content and discourse analysis of 105 posts connected by the #MigrantCaravan or #CaravanaMigrante hashtags, we delved into how media representations of immigration on Instagram effectively establish otherness between the different characters involved in this phenomenon. The border wall emerges as one of the main components in these narratives and a symbol of the temporal and spatial stages of the migratory journey. Meanwhile, the voice of the main character, the migrant, is mostly absent, often conveyed through biased views, filtered by the opinions of posters about immigration and characterized by new narrative configurations enabled by the Instagram format.
