Sommario/riassunto

This book takes a new approach to teaching students to think and learn about issues of race and diversity. Aiming to break down traditional categorisations of racial groupings such as African Americans, it focuses on teaching students to think and learn in a multidimensional, rather than in a linear fashion.
