Carlos Cort�s has been a first-hand observer and participant in the growth of multiculturalism and multicultural education from their birth in the social movements of the 1960s to the present day. In this unique collection of essays about diversity, society, and education, he provides readers with valuable insights, both from his own life story and from some of the most thought-provoking articles he has written over the past three decades. In many ways, Cort�s’s personal and professional story is the story of the multicultural movement itself, and this volume gives witness to the struggles and successes that Cort�s and many others have experienced while striving to create a place for the voices, values, and visions of racial and ethnic groups in our culturally diverse nation and shrinking world.

This one-of-a-kind reflective history:

Examines the evolving nature of multiculturalism and multicultural education as a dynamic and interactive process.
Features the perspective of a historian who has participated in the multicultural education movement.
Urges readers to reflect on their own lives, careers, and efforts to meet the challenges and opportunities of our increasingly diverse society.
Helps educators examine their own reasons for participating in the struggle to build a better multicultural future for our children.
