For nearly 20 years, Readings for Diversity and Social Justice has
been the trusted, leading anthology to cover a wide range of social
oppressions from a social justice standpoint. With full sections
dedicated to racism, religious oppression, classism, ableism, youth
and elder oppression, as well as an integrative section dedicated
to sexism, heterosexism, and transgender oppression, this
bestselling text goes far beyond the range of traditional readers.
New essay selections in each section of this fourth edition have
been carefully chosen to keep topic coverage timely and readings
accessible and engaging for students. The interactions among these
topics are highlighted throughout to stress the interconnections
among oppressions in everyday life. A Table of Intersections leads
you to selections not in the section dedicated to an issue.
Retaining the key features and organization that has made Readings
for Diversity and Social Justice an indispensable text for teaching
issues of social justice while simultaneously updating and
expanding its coverage, this new edition features: Over 40 new
selections considering current topics and events such as the Black
Lives Matter movement, workplace immigration raids, gentrification,
wealth inequality, the disability rights of prisoners and inmates,
and the Keystone XL pipeline protests. An updated companion website
with additional resources and short classroom-friendly videos that
further complement the readings in each section. A holistic
approach to sexism, gay, lesbian, trans and gender-queer oppression
that challenges widely-held assumptions about the usual practice of
separating analyses of sex and gender binaries. A more optimistic
focus on the role of social justice at all levels of society,
whether personal, institutional local, or global, and the
intersections among them. Offering over 140 selections from some of
the foremost scholars in a wide range of fields, Readings for
Diversity and Social Justice is the indispensable volume for every
student, teacher, and social justice advocate.
