| Synopsis: |
This second edition of the "classic" text retains its original focus on children's understanding of race, socioeconomic class, culture and gender, while also expanding the definition and scope of multicultural education. The author introduces new themes into multiculturalism by showing us how environmental exploitation and consumerism are related to social inequities and by demonstrating how a respect for the natural world can and must be woven into early childhood education. Citing classroom experiences and personal anecdotes, this volume shows us - often quite humorously - that the road to raising and teaching children with multicultural perspectives may not be an easy one, but it is one filled with hope and joy. The final chapter is written as a story - a vision of how individuals and institutions can change and create a more caring and just world. This book provides practical suggestions and examples of how to incorporate a multicultural perspective in all of our day-to-day interactions with children - from making up classroom rules to planning field trips. There is also a valuable appendix of "Suggested Books for Children". |
