One of the primary objectives of RACIAL AND ETHNIC GROUPS IN AMERICA, by Juan L. Gonzales, Jr., is to provide an academic background for understanding the history, culture, and social relationships that constitute the day-to-day life in ethnic communities. Juan Gonzales believes that education can provide the key to understanding ethnic and racial diversity in American society, and in turn, will promote greater tolerance and acceptance of cultural diversity.
