About this title

Synopsis

2nd Edition includes a printout of the PowerPoint Presentation for educators teaching this book. The actual PowerPoint can be ordered upon request to the author. Diversity Conversations challenges readers to manage their personal beliefs and biases, recognize the legitimacy of opposing perspectives, and find common ground. This book encourages personal growth through examining the conversations we have on diversity with ourselves, those who are like us, and those who are different. A balance of real-life experiences, useful research, and practical tips are presented that enable readers to become more thoughtful when facing diversity conflicts.
