Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Strategies
Learning from Journalism and Mass Communication Programs with Professional Impact
Description
Exploring DEI initiatives and practices at U.S. college and university journalism and mass communication (JMC) programs, this book puts forward ideas and strategies for ensuring diversity, equity, and inclusion in a great variety of academic units.
Building on multicultural education research, this book advances a diversity education framework that entails that works with a program's culture, students, faculty & staff, curriculum, and teaching in the context of JMC programs.
The book reflects on the increase in DEI programming following the racial injustice protests of 2020 as well as the politically motivated restrictions some US states are implementing against DEI initiatives. With the wisdom of experienced professors and program directors as well as industry professionals, the book explores the ultimate efficacy of diversity education and offers practical recommendations for developing and implementing a DEI plan.
While the insights in this book are gathered from JMC programs, they offer pertinent recommendations and calls to action for related academic programs in liberal arts and professional studies.
