Can public relations practitioners be activists in their own organizations and oppose, stand up, speak against practices or decisions they think unethical or unjust? Should they risk their jobs? And if they do, how can they avoid deepening existing divisions or creating new ones? Dr Derina Holtzhausen is the authors of Public Relations as Activism: Postmodern Approaches to Theory and Practice, a book awarded with the PRIDE Book Award from the National Communication Association for outstanding contribution to public relations theory. Originally from South Africa and with an extensive corporate experience as well, Derina is currently the dean of the College of Fine Arts and Communication at Lamar University in Texas, United States.
