Can use of the word difference help communication scholars to rethink communication with equity central, with the politics of difference at its center, or, in other words, where a deviation from an assumed norm is embraced as an intrinsic and valued part of the process of change making? Does adopting the words difference and equity in lieu of tolerance, diversity, and multiculturalism help bring us to a place where racialized minorities are not just window dressing, the tokens that stave off allegations of racism? In this essay, I briefly trace various discourses surrounding tolerance, multiculturalism, and diversity, before moving to difference to think to equity. Linguistic change coincides with and can foment historical and political change, yet we do not need more or different words: We need more equitable universities. Interrogating the language around this potentially change-making word uncovers, in the words of Herman Gray, a politics of difference that is unutterable without demands for equity.

Ben Fine's food system (see abstract in this section of SA 43:5) is examined in relation to other systems. The distinguishing feature of food provision systems is their dependence on both the organic & the inorganic, with the organic properties of food influencing interaction between structures & tendencies. Fine points to a link between the household & agriculture as key, yet this argument is weakened through unclear discussion of: agriculture as defined by biology; vertical provisioning; the concept of "organic"; & the question of consumption. Although Fine's discussion provides imortant points for departure in a political economy of food, neither the organic nor cultural factors are taken seriously enough, leaving understanding of food provisioning systems not yet attained. 16 References.
