With full sections dedicated to racism, sexism, classism, heterosexism, and ableism, as well as transgender oppression, religious oppression, and adult and ageism, this bestselling text goes far beyond the range of traditional readers. New essay selections in each section of this third edition have been carefully chosen to keep topic coverage timely and readings accessible and engaging for students. The interactions among these topics are highlighted throughout to stress the interconnections among oppressions in everyday life.

Over 20 new selections considering current topics and events such as immigration trends, racial profiling, student debt, Occupy Wall Street and global GLBT rights.

An updated companion website with additional resources, including video clips that further complement the readings in each section. Strong and accessible section introductions to highlight key points and relate the essential concepts of any given topic to other forms of oppression.

An explicit emphasis on the interconnectedness of social identity and social inequality throughout, with a secondtable of contents that notes the intersections among readings.

Offering over one-hundred and thirty selections from some of the foremost scholars in a wide range of fields, Readings for Diversity and Social Justice is the indispensible volume for every student, teacher, and social justice advocate.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"The book is rich in concrete examples of structural and social inequalities and in personal narratives challenging the notion that the U.S. is a land of equality. We expect that instructors will find its comprehensive nature useful and, more importantly, that students will be engaged by its timely, spirited, and accessible content."― Maia Bloomfield Cucchiara & Davinah S. Childs, Teachers College Record

Waste of Time and Money

Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2019

I am only reading this to become certified to become a teacher. Basically, if you are white, male, and/or Christian, you are racist, etc. I fail to see how this will help prepare my students for more useful things like reading, writing, and math which will help them have more power and control over their lives.

Excellent reading for Social Policy

Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2017

Loved this book which I bought for MSW program. Unfortunately it was stolen with all my notes, but a variety of authors talk about different subjects such as white privilege and economic disparity just to name a few. Would highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in studying social policy from a variety of perspectives. Many great insights that are affecting the younger generations in our nation today.

Good, not great

For all of you SJWs out there - you need this!
If you're more of a middle ground minded guy or gal, it's still got some interesting perspectives.
This was a required buy for my college diversity course, and some of the readings can be a bit whacko, but most have good insight.

Overall, recommend, especially for college kids.

a fantastic book with lots of information

Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2018

Verified Purchase

Purchased for a course in multiculturalism, a fantastic book with lots of information, use as a resource because there is so much information and broken down into short chapters, 10 pages or so on each topic. I highly recommend this text.
