Yu, Connie Young

Bridge, 4, 3, 33-35, Jul 76

A writer on Asian American history and culture and a member of the California Board of Education's committee to evaluate textbooks argues that "publishers must learn to break the ethnocentric mold of their books on all levels...--an effective step against racism in the classroom is the participation of educators, parents and concerned people in the textbook adoption process." (Author/JM)
