www.unityjournalists.org is a website that represents four diverse groups of journalists: Asian American Journalists Association, National Association of Black Journalists, National Association of Hispanic Journalists and Native America Journalists Association. The website's goal is to raise awareness of diversity and to increase representation of people of all cultures working in the media. Also, they want to increase news coverage of all races and cultures. On the website, there are articles about diversity in current events and resources for journalists of all races.
This website is an important tool for multicultural journalists in the media. Instead of focusing on one underrepresented group in the media, it focuses on four groups. Not only can a journalist use this as tool for their group, they can also see what other multicultural groups are doing to raise diversity awareness. They can communicate with other journalists that are facing the same problems. With four groups working together, there is a stronger force on raising multicultural awareness. The more people who are aware of the diversity problem in the media, there is a greater chance for change. This website represents the diversity of journalists and is a great media outlet for multicultural groups.
