This program introduces students to the vast history of journalism as it has evolved into a social media while examining critical issues and events locally and internationally as it applies to the African Diaspora. We aim to prepare students for careers in print and digital journalism. Students will contribute to the school newspaper and literary magazine, social media outlets, take part in literary activism, and engage in real application of journalism skills through trips to media outlets and internships.

While introducing students to the vast history of the different presentations of media that fuel the communications industry: graphic arts, advertising, film and television, podcasting, the program examines critical issues and events locally and internationally as it applies to the African Diaspora. The program looks to prepare students for interests in fields of broadcast media and its public relations. Students will contribute to and participate in a school podcast, visual media shows/ productions trips to organizations that support the mass media industry, and participate in internships.
