Social Justice, Activism and Diversity in U.S. Media History provides crucial historical context for communicators writing stories that touch on issues related to today's cultural chasms. This collection offers an array of resources indispensable for a broader understanding of cultural issue origins and will help journalists communicate more effectively.

María Len-Ríos, University of Minnesota, diversity and media expert

The fact that so much effort, hardship and discrimination in American media history is obscured, repressed, or forgotten is tragic and embarrassing. I'd be surprised if any Gen Z-er who reads this book doesn't find a new historical figure to respect or identify with. I certainly did.
