Readings for Diversity and Social Justice Reviews

The book is rich in concrete examples of structural and social inequalities and in personal narratives challenging the notion that the U.S. is a land of equality. We expect that instructors will find its comprehensive nature useful and, more importantly, that students will be engaged by its timely, spirited, and accessible content.- Maia Bloomfield Cucchiara & Davinah S. Childs, Teachers College Record
