Race(ing) Intercultural Communication: Racial Logics in a Colorblind Era


Add your own review!

Overview

Race(ing) Intercultural Communication signals a crucial intervention in the field, as well as in wider society, where social and political events are calling for new ways of making sense of race in the 21st century. Contributors to this book work at multiple intersections, theoretically and methodologically, in order to highlight relational (im)possibilities for intercultural communication. Chapters underscore the continuing importance of studying race, and the diverse mechanisms that maintain racial logics both in the U. S. and globally. In the so-called ‘post-racial’ era in which we live, not only are disrupting notions of colour-blindness crucially important, but so too are imagining new ways of thinking through racial matters. Ranging from discussions of new media, popular culture, and political discourse, to resistance literature, gay culture, and academia, contributors produce incisive analyses of the operations of race and white domination, including the myriad ways in which these discourses are reproduced and disrupted. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of International and Intercultural Communication.

Author Information

Dreama G. Moon is a professor in the Communication Department at California State University, San Marcos, California, USA. Within a human rights framework, she studies the varied communicative processes by which relations of domination are constructed, negotiated, reproduced, and resisted, with special attention to race and white supremacy. Michelle A. Holling is an associate professor in the Communication Department at California State University, San Marcos, California, USA. From a critical rhetorical lens, she advances the study of Chican@ rhetoric, and examines the ways that racial-ethnic individuals rhetorically challenge reigning ideologies, systems, or representations that contribute to their continued marginalization.
