“…Although the direction was positive, as always, more progress was needed. The following year, JMCE posed a provocative question, “Has the Dream Stalled?” that was addressed by leaders in the field (Baldasty et al, 2003), who each identified progress and offered suggestions on the work needed to achieve diversity.…”

The struggle for equality in journalism education for African Americans raises questions about how the government, news media, and educators worked together to realize the principles of civil rights. Certain milestones over the past 50 years can be charted through the collective scholarship of this journal’s pages. A careful look back reveals how goals of diversity were achieved or frustrated through reports on pedagogy, enrollment, technology, and trends in scholarship. Looking through the prism of Journalism & Mass Communication Educator ( JMCE) offers a telling explanation of how journalism education moved away from segregation, and how the complicated relationship between predominantly White institutions (PWIs) and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) played a role in this journey.

“…Ross and Patton (2000) call for journalism educators to prepare their students for a ''pluralistic society'' where minorities assert economic and political power (p. 25). Baldasty et al (2003) urge university administrators foster a multicultural environment because journalism students ''need a sophisticated sense of the world in which they will work'' (p. 8). Others argue that curricula should ''help prepare students to understand and relate to a multicultural, multi-ethnic, multiracial, and otherwise diverse society'' (Bramlett-Solomon & Liebler, 1999, p. 74).…”

Less attention has been paid to studying the ways whiteness*an ideological system that prizes white skin and confers privilege* manifests in the academic socialization of journalism students, impinging their ability to reflect the racial disenfranchisement of communities of color.…”

“…Present scholarship (Asante, 2006;Baldesty, 2003;Baraldi, 2006;Chesebro et al, 2007;Gordon, 2006;Kim, 2007;Miller, 2005;Oliha, 2010;Torres, 2006) suggests that there are grave repercussions for the continued denial, omission, and minimization of cultural perspectives and voices in this historical moment. Gordon (2006) argues that the privileged space given the western worldview has created biases in and limited theorizing about communication processes and consequently the potential impact of the field in contemporary conflicts.…”

Present contradictions in the intercultural communication field -the pre-eminence of western communication models and the minimization and denial of particular international and racial cultural voices -delimit the possibilities for nuanced theory building, scholarship, and teaching that may address the greatest challenge facing the world community -fostering understanding and advancing peace and security. This article introduces the notion of avant-garde epistemic confluence as one possibility for engendering greater levels of inclusion of marginalized and silenced voices at the epistemic core of the field to effectively address the evolving intergroup, multi-ethnic, and inter-religious conflicts on the world's stage. Mobilizing principles grounded in mindfulness and intercultural alliance building at the individual and disciplinary levels via research, theorizing, and teaching is a driving force. Advancing a pragmatic vision of the intercultural communication field in this twenty-first-century moment with the potential to address complex cross-cultural and intergroup social and political tensions is the central mission.
