Designed to improve racial and cultural sensitivity on predominantly white campuses through a structural learning approach, this text deals with these issues on a realistic and practical level. Using twenty-three hands-on activities, it approaches multicultural relations in a very personal, individualistic manner with the student as the target of training and change. This book emphasizes personal awareness, self-knowledge, and honest communication among majority and minority students.
