Cultural Diversity in America: An Up-Close Picture of Influences

Cultural Diversity in America: An Up-Close Picture of Influences is grounded in research conducted in various behavioral and social sciences—including anthropology, psychology, history and in particular, sociology. It is grounded in this way in order to bring a more holistic understanding of race and ethnic study in the U.S.

The author uses both an historical approach coupled with a practical approach to move the reader pass simply having knowledge of some of the evolutionary stages that have molded some of these histories but have also begun the hard conversation of how to move these group relationships pass their historical markers and into contemporary light.

The second part of this endeavor is in direct relation to what I have witnesses on several campuses, the rhetorical of acknowledgement of differences but a lacking in implementation where differences are seen as part of a whole, not another or separate segment of history or reality based education.
