They and We - Racial and Ethnic Relations in the United States (Paperback, 5th Revised edition)

Reorganized into four sections, this edition introduces the issues and ways in which sociologists see and define race, ethnicity and minority status; discusses the history and experiences of the various groups that comprise America; examines the nature of prejudice and patterns of discrimination; and explores issues of pluralism, power and politics. This edition includes material on Muslims (Arab and non-Arab), Latinos and Asians; more on the politics of resentment, multiculturalism and the debates over diversity on college campuses and elsewhere; and increased coverage of the significance of gender, and of the comparative nature of intergroup relations. A rewritten Chapter Ten includes a discussion of the rededication of the Ellis Island and the Million Man March, as well as a discussion of pluralism and the meaning of multiculturalism in modern America.
