It draws upon the experiences of developing a new program in global studies at Providence…

Gosselin, Colette – Multicultural Perspectives, 2011
Teaching a course in multicultural education at a largely white, middle-class, suburban liberal arts college has its challenges.

A common (although not universal) goal of feminist teachers is to create a "safe environment" in the classroom.
