American Multicultural Studies

<strong>American Multicultural Studies: Diversity of Race Ethnicity Gender and Sexuality</strong> provides an interdisciplinary view of multicultural studies in the United States addressing a wide range of topics that continue to define and shape this area of study. Through this collection of essays Sherrow Pinder responds to the need to open up a rich avenue for addressing current and continuing issues of race gender ethnicity sexuality cultural diversity and education in their varied forms. Substantial thematic overlaps are found between sections and essays all of which are oriented toward a single broad objective: to develop new and different ways of addressing how multicultural issues in their discursive sociocultural contexts are inextricably linked to the operations of power. Power as a site of resistance to which it invariably gives rise is tacked from a perspective that attends to the complexities of America's history and politics.
