"A first-of-a-kind book for all educators working for real democracy in an increasingly multicultural society. Three dozen faculty and students at colleges from the East Coast to the Southwest provide real-world accounts of using critical multiculturalism strategies in the classroom. Enlightened by extensive collaboration and innovative experimentation, they offer concrete advice on teaching diverse, often naïve students about difficult matters of stereotyping, prejudice, discrimination, and conflict. These savvy educators press us all to implement a critical college-level pedagogy that takes sexism, racism, classism, and homophobia seriously." -Joe R. Feagin, Ella C. McFadden Professor of Liberal Arts, Texas A&M University and author of The Agony of Education and Liberation Sociology.
