Howard Journal of Communications: SPECIAL ISSUE
The Barack Obama Presidency
Barack Obama's ascendancy to the Presidency of the United States in 2008
was historic and since then scholars have dissected his terms in office
by investigating several intersections, including race and power,
culture and communication, among others. In 2016, President Barack
Obama's presidency will come to an end. Yet, there are still several
academic interests that surround his tenure and the days that would
follow it. The Howard Journal of Communications plans a special issue to
investigate "Obama's America," The time between his two presidential
terms as well as his impact on America after his tenure ends.
All submitted manuscripts must adhere to the journal's focus on culture,
race, and gender intersecting with communication as it relates to Barack
Obama. There are several studies that are possible and they include, but
are not limited to, the following:
- Post racial America
- Obama's presidency and the urban police crises
- Obama rhetoric
- Obama and the Supreme Court
- Obama and religion: From Jeremiah Wright to Rev. Clementia
Pinckney
- Obama and social media: A comparison between both presidential
terms
- Michelle Obama, race, and the African-American woman
- Power, politics, and communication
- Obama's presidency and issues of image repair
- America, communication and post-Obama
- Media and the framing of Obama
- Affordable Health Care
- Issues of immigration
- Talk shows, politics, race, and hate
Please submit a manuscript following the Howard Journal of
Communications' guidelines for manuscript submissions, which can be
found at http://www.tandfonline.com/toc/uhjc20/current. No submission
should be longer than 7000 words. Include on the manuscript title and in
parenthesis "Special Issue on President Obama." The deadline for
