- Summary:
-
Schools play an important role in combatting racism, which, despite a quarter century of desegregation, may be increasing. Possible solutions offered in this report are: public declarations of repugnance for racism; multicultural educational programs; use of teachers as role-models; and effective use of tolerance-generating resources. Several other motivational and confrontational strategies used by educators to change racist behavior are discussed. Schools can preserve ethnic identity without sacrificing social integration by offering programs that recognize the distinction between the meanings of culture and ethnicity. Multicultural education must distinguish between culture and ethnicity if it is to preserve ethnic identity while facilitating social integration. Multicultural education offers excellent ways to uncover prejudice and to stimulate appreciation for racial and ethnic differences. (12 references) (LMI)
