There are many people, young and old, who still pout, no doubt. Stephanie is a pouter. One day, she wanted something sooooooo badly, that she started to pout bigger, and even bigger, than anyone had ever pouted in the history of pouting. So what was bugging her so much that it made her pout like this? So, if you're a pouter, and no doubt sometimes you are, then you'll understand exactly how Stephanie feels. And if you end up pouting like her, it will stick that way, and then you too, could end up looking just like a pickle. No doubt.

This Teacher's Guide accompanies In the Shadow of Race: Growing Up as a Multiethnic, Multicultural, and "Multiracial" American by Teja Arboleda. It has a twofold purpose. First, it facilitates K-12 and university faculty in situating Arboleda's book within the fields of race relations, multicultural education, and related disciplines. Second, it is intended to critique and problematize the book's content so that it can be used to stimulate critical thought, debate, and action oriented toward increasing social justice among its readers both inside and outside of the classroom. To facilitate use of In the Shadow of Race as a course text, topics for discussion included in this Teacher's Guide include the social construction of race; racial separatism versus diversity; racial, ethnic, and cultural identity development; the politics of racial categorization; mixed "race" peoples; cultural identity vs. identity by heritage; the concept of a "cultural home"; and changing identities within cultures. The Teacher's Guide is free to college faculty who adopt Arboleda's In the Shadow of Race.
