Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on their past work in race and family communication, Rhunette C. Diggs and Thomas J. Socha gather in this volume contemporary theory and research concerning ways that families use communication to transform inherited cultural legacies for the better (Communication 3.0). The book expands the field of communication’s understanding of the life-long impact that family communication has on the managing diverse and clashing cultural relationships, identities, meanings, and communication practices. It spotlights the economically disenfranchised alongside the economically secure, the systematically oppressed next to beneficiaries of Whiteness, and those actually or metaphorically killed and or threatened by violence and hateful systems outside of home. Together, the contributions address omissions of diverse family contexts in family communication research and reconsider qualitative and quantitative approaches that bring respect and equality to the participant-researcher relationship. This book is suitable as a supplementary text for courses in family communication, family studies, race and ethnicity in communication, and intergroup communication.

Sample Book Insights: #1 The tale of Angela and her sisters is a prime example of the impact of childhood on family life. Angela was born after her parents had been married for two years. Her sister Gwen was two years old when the marriage ended, and Angela saw little of her father after that. When she was five years old, her mother married a colleague at work, and by the time Angela was in high school her mother was divorced and remarried. The girls were attached to their stepfather, who was always around and involved in their lives. -> The impact of childhood on family life is clear in the story of Angela and her sisters. When she was five years old, her mother married a colleague at work, and by the time Angela was in high school, her mother was divorced and remarried. #2 Family life is a universal human experience, and no two individuals share the exact same experience. Yet, because you have lived in only one or a small number of family structures, your experience is limited compared to the range of potential family experiences. #3 Family life is a universal human experience, and no two individuals share the exact same experience. #4 The family is a universal human experience. It reflects cultural communication patterns, as well as the communication patterns of previous generations.
