family communication. Suitable for advanced courses in family

This groundbreaking volume explores how family communication
influences the perennial and controversial topic of race. In
assembling this collection, editors Thomas J. Socha and Rhunette C.
Diggs argue that the hope for managing America's troubles with
"race" lies not only with communicating about race at public
meetings, in school, and in the media, but also--and more
fundamentally--with families communicating constructively about
race at home.
African-American and European-American family communication
researchers come together in this volume to investigate such topics
as how Black families communicate to manage the issue of racism;
how Black parent-child communication is used to manage the
derogation of Black children; the role of television in family
communication about race; the similarities and differences between
and among communication in Black, White, and biracial couples and
families; and how family communication education can contribute to
a brighter future for all. With the aim of developing a clearer
understanding of the role that family communication plays in
society's move toward a multicultural world, this volume provides a
crucial examination of how families struggle with issues of ethnic
cultural diversity.
