- Bridges the widening gap between multicultural education and civic education.
- Provides powerful teaching strategies that educators can use to draw children creatively and productively into a way of life that protects and nurtures cultural pluralism and racial equity.
- Explains the unity-diversity confusion that is found in popular media as well as in multicultural- and citizenship-education initiatives.
