Race, Power and Social Segmentation in Colonial Society (1987) studies Guyanese society after slavery and specifically examines the area of social classes and ethnic groups. It also focuses on the theoretical issues in the debate on pluralism versus stratification and provides a detailed interdisciplinary analysis of the process of structural change in a composite colonial society over a significantly long historical period - over half a century.
Daily detailed lesson plans, unit overview, student activities, printable materials, engaging videos: all you need to support teaching Ethnic Studies. This unit serves well as the first unit in the Introduction to Ethnic Studies high school course building on the foundation of critical thinking skills, as well as basic reading and writing skills by practicing evidence-supported argument and connecting complex issues of identity, intersectionality, race, gender, and sexuality to American social structures. This unit is taught thematically therefore, structured within a universal theme where students of any level can engage in high-level thinking and teachers can add or subtract sub-topics easily to meet local standards, time restraints, and interests. This project-based unit explores the complex factors that make up one’s identity and the importance of teaching Ethnic Studies in schools. Course Description: The Ethnic Studies course is designed for students to be politically, socially and economically conscious about their personal connections to local and global histories. By studying the histories of race, ethnicity, nationality, sexuality, and culture, students will cultivate respect and empathy for individuals and solidarity with groups of people locally, nationally, and globally so as to foster active social engagement and community building. Particular focus will be given to the contributions, and struggles of different racial and ethnic groups for liberty, equality, and justice in the United States. Students will investigate and analyze the historical factors of power and privilege and the subsequent impact on historically disadvantaged groups’ ability to navigate and mitigate internal and external structures that influence their human experience. Students will apply in-depth analysis to contemporary issues and collectively pose creative, self-affirming solutions in a variety of ways to promote agency through grassroots community advocacy and civic engagement. This course is intended to help build inter-ethnic understanding and socio-cultural bridges in an increasingly more multicultural and multiethnic nation, which is imperative to creating a just society. Course Rationale: In 2016, the new Social Science Framework was adopted and includes Ethnic Studies; “It is important for Ethnic Studies courses to document the experiences of people of color in order for students to construct counter-narratives and develop a more complex understanding of the human experience. Through these studies, students should develop respect for cultural diversity and see the advantages of inclusion” (p. 419-424). Additionally, in October 2021, Governor Gavin Newsom signed the bill, AB 101, that will require every student at a public high school in the state to take an ethnic studies course. Starting with students graduating 2029-2030.
Thinking among ethicists, even when they come from similar religious traditions, can take vastly divergent paths. These differences are apparent in the second volume of Readings In Christian Ethnics. Volume 1, Theory and Method, focuses on ways scholars view the formation of moral theory and norms. Volume 2 studies how their interpretations affect casuistry, and covers issues related to abortion, reproductive technologies, euthanasia, sexuality, race, gender, social justice, the environment, civil disobedience, capital punishment, and war. With each selection, annotated bibliographies identify writings pertinent to each topic covered. Case studies make issues relevent to the reader's own life experience. Glossaries in each subject area define terms. Reports on medical ethics and reproductive technologies provide technical explanations.

What patterns of racial and ethnic stratification are emerging in the American labor market as representation of racial and ethnic minorities continues to increase in the new millennium? The articles in this special volume of The Annals demonstrate that in the 21st century the labor market is neither race-neutral nor color blind. Race and ethnicity continue as salient factors in determining life-chance opportunities in the American labor market.The volume focuses on the range of issues sociologists are addressing as they explore racial and ethnic inequality in the labor market. It also examines the methodological strategies used to analyze the subtle dynamics associated with inequality in the labor market. Taken together, these articles move us ahead in understanding the incidence, causes, and consequences of persisting inequities.

Race Cars is a children’s book about white privilege created to help parents and educators facilitate tough conversations about race, privilege, and oppression. Written by a clinical social worker and child therapist with experience in anti-bias training and edited by a diversity expert, Race Cars tells the story of 2 best friends, a white car and a black car, that have different experiences and face different rules while entering the same race. Filled with bright, attention-grabbing illustrations, a notes and activities section at the back helps parents, guardians, and teachers further discuss these issues with children. Why is this book important? As early as 6 months old, a baby’s brain can notice race-based differences; children ages 2 to 4 can internalize racial bias and start assigning meaning to race; and 5- to 8-year-olds begin to place value judgments on similarities and differences. By age 12, children have a complete set of stereotypes about every racial, ethnic, and religious group in society. Our guidance is especially crucial during this impressionable time. Race Cars offers a simple, yet powerful, way to introduce these complicated themes to our children and is a valuable addition to classroom and home libraries.
